I know this isn't a place for a rules discussion but whilst we're on the subject of D's, I personally think we should be going behind the goal when returning after a goal rather than through the D. It was hard to make sure people were doing it properly at the Euros, behind the goal is more definite.
Behind the goal means the goal is potentially left wide open.
The reason a lot of non-UK players didn't naturally return to their goal is because we're the only one's that I know of who goes all the way back to the goal instead of just cross half court. (maybe Paris because of Yorgo) This is why I mentioned a quarter-court line a few posts above to sort of meet in the middle of what we've always done and what the rest of the world does.
