I know I take far more latitude than many at C - depending on the type of offense being run. I like to be above the players on the wing, not below, and to do this at times I have to get more than two steps above the FT line extended. Not often, but I still do it.
I used to work below, but I found I couldn't keep an eye on secondary plays in my primary very well, and I often got straightlined on drives to the basket on the baseline side.
I also step quite a ways down in quick transition plays at the hoop - about halfway down the lane, though this isn't much more than 2 steps from the FT line extended.
