Agree that most of the time it will probably be a violation call, unless the players action going OOB showed a clear attempt to gain an advantage. Like Mark said, you'll know it when you see it.
I've only had it happen once - 8th grade boys game. A1 is bringing the ball up court along the sideline & team B sets up to trap at half court. Without picking up his dribble, A1 bounces the ball between & past the defenders, then runs around one of them and grabs the ball, going OOB in the process. I whistle A1 for the "T", then coach A explodes off the bench screaming "what kind of a Bxxx Sxxx call is that" earning himself a seat in the parking lot, as he had already been rung up earlier for dropping an "F" bomb.
