I can tell you by my observation that in the NBA, they "lock down" at the end of almost every period. Usually the trail signals for it.

My question then becomes: if they think they need to lock down because the final shot is so important they don't want to be caught in a switch, why don't they lock down for the entire game?

Every shot is as important as any other, since all points count toward the final score.

MARK-- The reason that they lock down at the end of the game is so that there is no confusion at all about who has the clock at the end of the game..As far as the switching {flexing} durring the game-- the reason is to get the best angle{view} as much as possible on every play.
