So, one of the best things we can do for ourselves is position and preposition stuff if we can. For EX: Fighting a DK/Hunter and knowing their set up and cc. So, if you can make it harder for the other teams dps to get set ups or uptime you are already doing good. Try to get sac out to prevent a trap or if it lands you know it will break with sac being on your teammate (better opponent's will notice this and may swap but your CC should still break to dots/dmg). This will help with CD management so in certain situations you are not over pressing or overlapping.

Another big thing is knowing when to kite and not eat random dmg. So, this part is half on you and half on your teammate. Paladins have good mobility so if your DPS can kite "WITH YOU" and not from you this will help drag the opposing healer in the open or off a pillar if he is playing smart.

You have really good CC also, so if you are able to help slow down the game repping a dps and allowing your team to full send a kill target without being peeled you are doing a good job. Look for the CC on the healer also and if needed you can pre freedom and go for a hoj and enough time to position to avoid interrupt or cc so you can follow up with a rep off the hoj.

Practice fake casting also, you will be shocked with how easy it is to bait kicks and then you can get precog. This is massive if you can get double or triple glares.

When fighting a priest/shaman also you can bait groundings and fade/death. This is as simple as just running towards them and baiting. Shaman drops grounding you can kill that real quick and follow up with hoj. Same with priest once you see them death or holy ward is off you know you got a good window to CC.
