How far will you go to save a game?

Team is down 2 with 10 seconds left... Yes, the answer is yes L should make this call if they are 110% sure there was an obvious foul that C and T missed.

And to say that as L you aren't looking over in that direction and wouldn't help is ridiculous unless you are a rookie who isn't confident enough to help in this situation. As my partner I would say thanks! you just saved the game.

The other issue if you are slot or center and in transition the ball is on your side you should get behind it and trail that match-up. If you are staying ahead of the play you are going to find yourself straightlined, but if you are behind, just a few feet, you will have a better angle on any plays to the basket.

One more point to Lead making this call. When I was at camp two years ago we had a situation where I made a call from center (the wrong call) because both of my partners got "blocked" from the play. The evaluator said on the last play of the game you aren't allowed to become blocked out. Move to where you can see. If you are L and have to come half way into the key, then do so. If you are T and have to come half way on the court, then do so. If you are C and have to trail the play, then do so.

But hey that's just me...
