I would neither want nor expect help in this situation. Trying to read your mind on what angles you may or may not need help on (but you were not screened) is an invitation to throw up ball handling suggestions that will get you into trouble.

If the angle was such that you were not screened but still couldn't see two contacts, live with it. Inviting an R2 to give ball handling advice on non-screened contacts runs the risk of the R2's ball handling standard being what the coaches notice/expect, rather than your own.
