While I wouldn't want to put all of my ways on someone else, I think through almost everything and do things with some kind of logical thought.
- I'm not in a hurry. This process slows things down.
- Most of the time I bounce the ball with both hands and then raise my arm.
- (heavily opinion based talking about myself) You know how something happens just as you are about to hand the ball to a player that keeps you from handing him/her the ball? It could be a sub, a partner isn't ready or anything that delays the inbounding. Yeah, I will not be that dufus holding his hand up the whole time OR having my hand up, lowering it because of the delay and then putting it back up.
I asked myself a long time ago, "Tom, what is the cleanest way to handle inbounding the ball?" And I answered, "Give the player the ball first, then raise your hand. It will look so much better."
