Darned right. If I'm the trail, I'm not going to be looking at a 3 in the opposite corner *unless* it's a shot at the buzzer. I look there and who's getting the two-handed shove that frees up rebounding space?

Borderline 3's right near the division of responsibilities? Of course. I'm noting what I see and if I need to get in, I will. I've only had one partner mark a 3 this year and it was clear to me that the player had a foot on the line. Fortunately, the kid missed the shot.
