Closely Guarded Post Player

I would think the C would have a count, but since most often this post-up is in the lane, 3 secs. come before 5.

So we've got the L looking for a foul, the C looking for a 5 second count and the T looking for traveling...all on the same post up? Yikes!

Can you imagine the C coming across the court for a 5 second call on a post player standing three feet from the L? Talk about fireworks.

Exactly. I know it's been said before, but if all three officials are on-ball, who is watching the other 8? The very notion of the C or T having the count on a post up in front of the lead boggles my (admittedly very tiny) mind.
