My problem with this is how often does a C "receive a play"? The Lead does because he has plays to the basket and secondary defenders. The C is supposed to be getting angles to see between players and looking for competitive matchup.

Also, #3 is from the NBA guys for a reason. They have a 24-second shot clock and rarely any backcourt pressure to deal with. The ball gets inside the 3-point line a lot faster in the Pro game than it does in college or HS ball. So #3 doesn't really apply to the amateur game, IMO (unless you have an old school UNLV/LMU game going on).
