And yes in three-man the T has the 5 second count in the Lead's primary. Only the T and C have counts.

Do you have a reference for this?

Sure, Bob. 302 on page 48 of the Officials Manual. It says, "The Center or Trail official, who has a five-second closely guarded count in the frontcourt,..." Nowhere in the 3-official procedures is the Lead ever mentioned along with a 5-second closely guarded count.
To my knowledge the only 5 second count the Lead could have is during a throw-in.

I'm with you Bob...in NCAAW, when the L has the ball in their area (esp. out in the corner) they have to have the 5 second count...T will be watching the post players in that situation...
Thanks.
I still don't agree with it, though. 
If L and T are both watching the ball, who's watching all the other stuff in L's area and in T's area?
