B/C sitch...what should I have done?

In 2-person game (which sounds like you were in), I move into the backcourt and come onto the court (maybe so far as the middle of the court) in order to get a good view of the action in the corner. Work in an arc so the farther you are on the court, the farther you are from the centerline (hope that makes sense). Be aware of possible turnover and bodies coming at you toward opposite basket.

But above all, get where you can see the play.
