Once while coaching varsity G - we had a game where opponent knew the only way to stay in the game was to keep ball from us. They got the tip, came across the line and stood about 2 feet from line. Girl with ball was going against my injured (ankle) point guard. I told my kids not to pressure anything outside 3 pt line. So we stood.............. Parents yelling for action, kids frustrated etc. I kept telling them from bench to stay put. With 10 seconds to go in quarter, guard starts to move ball, goes to corner gets trapped and throws ball over shoulder off board into basket. 1st Qtr score 2-0 them. We started the 2nd quarter scoring within 10 seconds and I couldn't take it anymore. Full court man press until 20 point lead. Final score 57-5 - without starters in 2nd half.
