Muscle memory.

In two-man, you always switch. So, if you were at the "north" end of the court, you will now be at the "south" end.

In three man, you always go table side. whoever was there goes where you were. then all adjust to be in the proper spot for the throw-in.

Some exceptions (long switches, FTs) to the above and, of course, your area might vary.

It's easier to do than to explain.
