BlindZ, Who said shot? I thought it was a STEAL we are talking about.(stay with us and fallow along)
What don't you get about trail stepping down on a shot to help with rebounding? You do know that is what trail is supposed to do, right? Or are you in such a hurry to get back that you always bail?

You can have a quick steal in transition and trails momentum is going forward, but the ball is already going the other way, and trail is BEHIND the play.

You can have a shot with trail stepping down to FTL extended area, a long rebound a tap back and you have the ball going the other way, and trail is BEHIND the play.

There will be times in every game where trail will get behind the play without it being trail's fault. The smart official recognizes that they are beat and positions themselves to get a good look at the play. That look does not happen by trying to outrun the players.
