It's an NBA thing. It's kind of like the old "Illegal Defense," but changed slightly when they decided to allow a zone defense. A defender can't be in the lane alone for more than three seconds (if he's guarding someone, it's okay). There are more nuances, I think, but I'll leave it to actual NBA fans to elaborate.
