Don't forget that the player you're standing next to is also your responsibility as the lead. Don't have my book here, either, but I'm pretty sure it gives a general location OOB and away from the lane line extended for the lead. I personally don't like to stand next to that "bottom" player........and like I said I'm pretty sure it's not technically correct. Having said all this, I called very few lane violations this year. Biggest problem I had on free throws were violations by players not on the lane lines.
