Aside from that, I don't ask for speaking captains, unless I have a partner that insists upon them. The rules say that all five players can talk to us. That's good enough for me.

1) I've never done that
2) Only to request a TO (or something like that), iirc.
A captain can be handy if you want to get a message to another player (tell #2 to watch his attitude) or coach (I need you to help get your team out of the huddle after a TO)
