Pick away! You are absolutely correct. I was trying to keep it simple for him, but you're right.
As for suspending the count = rule, I should have just stated it that way, however I have had partners that will give 'em a 3 sec call for putting the ball down (dribble) before they go up.
Also by rule the offensive player has to exit the lane before returning, I interpret this to mean (similar to FC status BOTH feet and the ball), however 3 secs not always called this tightly. See offensive players straddling the lane, often gaining an advantage, but it seems to go overlooked. Thoughts on this?
