Two Man Lead Questions

[Chess Ref]

I only work 2 man so think 2 man here.

Generally speaking I start out wide on endline. My thinking is if the ball swings to other side of the court or gets down low in paint I should be closing down to lane extended or so . I also have been closing down when there is minimal activity in front of me but lots of in the paint activity going on.

Is my thinking correct or what ? I had a senior ref be pretty adamant about me ALWAYS staying out wide, to get a better angle--his thinking seemed a little extreme to me.

Feedback please.....
