Looking like you know what you're doing seems to be far more important than actually knowing what you're doing.

I think what you're seeing is not the benefit of know where to stand but more of "can handle coaches and players" and simply carry themselves well on the floor. Their signals and positioning are probably just as incorrect as is their rules knowledge.
