This is the correct answer, IMO. I'll add that the best angle is normally a button hook towards the middle of the court to get a view of the separation. When the steal initially happens, I find it best to stay put and pivot to prevent running in to a player. From there, I'll move to get an angle which is most likely towards the middle fo the court so you can see the separation or lack thereof.
