I'm sure this information is accurate for 3 person mechanics.

However, in watching NBA classics, when NBA crews use to be 2 man, the new Lead official would often stop and let the play pass him so he could get a great angle from the rear.

I only bring this up because the original post asked for both 2 and 3 man.
