I wouldn't emulate the strokes or the technique, but a smart approach to the point.

A good lob puts you at the baseline and even if you play a good overhead there, it won't be a winner since he'd had the time to be back into position.
If he does that, you're at the baseline, far from the net, where you aren't at your best. But chances are, you will play wisely as usual and he will probably not realise you actual want that net play situation, neither will he be able to pull of perfect lob each time.
This is where experience cannot be bought and you have it, so...

yeah when we play te serve volley game you have time to think much about the spins and that stuff, i was reffering more in your doubles videos(or in some return games).

once I forced him into one hand, he was toast. he doesn't have that shot. anticipation and knowledge of what they can do is important...hmmm sounds like a new video... i'm trying to add in the spin factor as you suggested, but I make the shots automatically now and don't even think about that...which is an important aspect of shot selection
I have always had problems with my timing when coming 2net on a serve. I used to stupidly rush in as far as I could for the volley. However recently a coach me to start the split step as soon as you see your serve bounce. By the time you react and do this, your opponent is about to make contact. I have found this is giving me the right amount of time as a starting point to react to their return, albeit a volley/half volley/overhead etc... I think this is sound advice for novice serve/volleyers.

@surfjabroni do you split and stop, i always have my students split and move in--that works pretty well, also once you're within 2 feet of the service line...it's all the same

@hattrickster33 cool huh, I got skills to stay upright and make this rather solid volley from a really bad position...

That is the reason why people don't get better in their tennis, they don't even try.
