One thing not to do is move yourself into a closed look if you don't need to. If the play comes at you such that you're on one side, stay there until the play moves such that it gives you a chance to move to the other side. An open look from one spot is better than moving through a closed look to get to the other side unless the play forces you to make a move. When you unnecessarily try to move to the "other side", there is some change there will be a play at the moment you're closed. Limit how much and how often you move through closed looks, preferably picking times where there is not likely to be a play, or you can do so more quickly (like when the action is moving the opposite direction that you're moving).
