Yikes...

What exactly is the Lead doing? (Besides not watching two players wrestle in the paint and having a goofy technical foul signal)

I also love how when there is a player on the floor and a whistle finally blows, no one closes in on the play. They all just kind of wander around. Pretty bad situational awareness.

I don't care about the headline...though if I was on the court, I PERSONALLY, would have felt the ejection was on us...even if the T's were absolutely warranted. I'd rather discuss the mechanics and positioning at play here.

This is a failure to work the 3-man system properly. This is an active match up in the lead's primarily. He has nothing else to be distracting him...but he ball watches as the ball goes out to the wing.

The slot also has a great opportunity to get this. It looks like the majority of the players are strong side and no active match ups in his are. Extend to your secondary and find an active match up...in this case, it would be the action in the post. He puts air in this whistle, and all the L can say after the game is thanks for saving my ass.
