Last-second shot coverage in transition

[Camron Rust]

In a last second transition, the convention here is that he lead will take a shot in the frontcourt until the trial is in the frontcourt. You don't want a trail having to make that call from 80 feet away after administering a throwin on the backcourt endline with 2-3 seconds on the clock or racing to get to the frontcourt and making that call on a sprint.

This was one of the mechanics suggested in our disagreement, with the by-the-manual, trail-is-trail approach being the other.

I posted out of interest in how this is handled by others at all levels.

It should be the Trail in 2 man and Center/Trail, opposite the table in 3 man.

It should be that way always unless you discuss to change it by circumstance. For example, if you have a length of the court play that might be in front of the lead or a tableside official then that should be the change. Usually during the last few seconds or even minute if you have time to discuss.
