Mechanics and positioning are important, no question. Practice your signals at home in the mirror, and study up on where you should be positioned in various situations. But, IMHO, you have to know the rules, first and foremost.
Agree....fwiw.

You should know all the basic rules i.e. the most common violations and fouls...and how to apply those rules. What you shouldn't do when you're starting out is waste time over the once-every-30-years plays that we spend so much time lovingly discussing here.
