Here's the problem.

The act of going out-of-bounds specifically to avoid a defensive player in itself is not covered in the rules.

However, with rule 4.2.2 as our background, we can warn players not to leave the court, and if they don't listen...

38.3.1 A technical foul is a player non-contact foul of a behavioural nature including, but not limited to:

- Disregarding warnings by officials.

Which means I was wrong to make that call, as I did twice in a game earlier this year :S
