shifting issues

OK I am not thrwoing any codes yet but it seems that when my truck heats up after driving i seem to have problems "sometimes" with getting into reverse. If I am on flat ground it will switch into gear. If I an slightly on an incline where my truck would roll forward it will not engage with out a little throttle. Also I noticed my shifting can be irradict at times. Sometimeds she wont come out of second unless i let off accelerator. One guy tells me i need new trans another guy says trans is fine it is something else. Any ideas?
