Need some advice.

Two other things.
1. If you need to take care of the weaker partner do so, but use caution not to undermine them in the eyes of others. A coach physically bumped and cussed at a female partner after a game last year. Not a wise move for him. I've also given techicals to get an arrogant coach off of my partner's back more than once.
2. Balance each other's strengths. I have one partner I work with some with 30+ years experience. He knows the rule book inside out and if I had a strange or questionable situation, there's no one I'd rather be on the court with. But he is a little "stiff" in the way he relates to people. I have better people skills -- unless I have a jerk on the bench -- so I try to do more of that kind of stuff. Balance each other.
