This is exactly what I was going to say, doggonit. You say you were on the C's side of court for 2-3 seconds before the turnover. That's a long time and you obviously recognized that the rotation hadn't been completed.

So once the transition starts, since you KNOW that you partner is unaware that he should be Lead, "hedge" by staying closer to the middle of the court. That way, when you see the "wrong" official taking the Lead position, it's very easy to slide to that sideline.

And I know this is not a big deal to a lot of people but. . .

The L, who should have been the C, was on the baseline.
He wasn't on the baseline. The baseline is on the backboard. He was on the end line.

Without reading anybody's response.

Yes, you could have handled it better. You could have put the crew back in the proper formation by simply going back across the court.

I pre-game this:

If a rotation is missed whichever of the 2 new Leads recognizes it drop back to the Center and the Trail can adjust (and hopefully the Trail is coming up the middle of the court seeing that he has 2 Leads). No need for yelling or gesturing. Recognize and adjust.
