Specifically, the C is looking at the screens, the post match-ups, the rebounding position battles, etc. on his side of the court, while the T is able to observe the ball up top. The Lead is doing exactly what the C is doing, but on his side of the court.
The above quote also makes the excellent point that we don't want an instant rotation as the ball crosses the vertical middle of the court. That would make the Lead bounce around like a pinball! We need to allow the ball to penetrate into the C's area and using the far lane line (from the Lead) makes it clear when the rotation should occur.

NevRef gets my vote for the best, most reasonable, clearest answer to the 3-(hu)man newbie question. Rut's response, to which NR refers in his post, is either a close second or good enough for a tie.
Thanx, guys! Well stated. Credit will be given when quoted.
(Just Another Ref - - might wanna shrink that overlap in your pregame crew conference.)
