This used to happen all the time, when I first started out, if I'm remembering correctly. They used to have us in the "box-in" formation. If a throw-in situation required the officials to start in a "reverse box", then the Trail would move across the floor -- during play! -- and the Lead would move to the other side of the lane to get back in the "proper" box-in positions.

Ah yes, that old Pink Cadillac of Love. But I'm surprised by the assertion that L should force a rotation in current 2 man practice. That's not something I've ever heard taught. However, I can see Camron's point. I'm pretty sure I missed a foul in transition on a press last week because it happened on the far sideline, while the ballhandler was turned away from me, and I was straightlined. Only way I would have seen it would be to be on that sideline. If it were permissible for me to initiation a rotation as T in transition, I could have come clear across and caught that.
