I agree. Trusting your partners and calling your area is important. I just think the proximity to the paint is a major advantage of 3 person mechanics.

Question: FOR NCAA MEN, in Frontcourt, does the T administer the throw in when the ball is below the free-throw line extended? Or is it the L's responsibility?

I know in NCAAW, it is the "L"s responsibility. In HS, it is the "T"

Please verify

(HS) Not necessarily. If it is on the lead's sideline, the lead may bounce the ball up the sideline to the thrower (and stay lead). Above the FT line, the lead will switch and become the T.

Now I'm confused... why would the L switch to become T on OOB?

CR, you are referring to the 2-man mechanic, correct? I think he's questioning 3-whistle.

Our State HS association uses women's college mechanics, so the L administers this throw-in. Not sure if the men's mechanic is different.

Yes, I was referring to 2-man mechanics. For 3, I would be incorrect and he was right all along.
