Dan_ref, your reply sounds to me like exactly what I need. Thank you. May I pose some follow-up questions?

Okay, let's take this slowly, since that is how I think. Picture Pooh bear..."think, think, think"

Yes, as lead you should "mirror the ball" -- that is, work just outside the ball's position relative to the end-line.
If the ball is wide, you're wide, if the ball is in the middle, you're near the paint.
If the ball is on the opposite side and players are posting up on the far side, you can go take a look at the post play (some associations frown on this).
