Originally posted by FrankHtown I generally go top of the key to top of the key to keep as wide an angle as possible, usually on side away from table..step down on a shot....make all throw-ins on the sideline, except after a made basket. If there is a quick transition... stop...let the players run around you, then catch up to the play, or else you'll trample someone, or they will trample you.
I generally stand on the baseline of the home team because they typically have more fans at the contest than the visitors... And what I do is let them call their own on the other end... When the visiting team fans yell at me to go down to the other end I usually tell them, Nah, they'll be back. <b>THAT WAS JUST A JOKE BY THE WAY!</b> I wouldn't recommend this mechanic to anyone UNLESS you a) have torn your achilles tendon or b) are afraid that if you start out in a dead sprint to the other end you will mess yourself.
