Noticed a mechanic that I do

Likewise. My problem is, when I'm on the lead, I sometimes start a count after an offensive rebound, because I'm anticipating a defensive rebound and starting my ten-second count. I don't know why I'm in such a rush; it's highly unlikely I'm going to get to ten, anyway. Maybe I should tell myself to wait a beat.

I suppose it doesn't look that bad if it's a long rebound outside the lane, and the rebounder is almost always closely guarded, but if he's in the lane, there's no need for a visible count.
