Would you call this a fake during a game? There is a situation in the casebook (9.1.2), but how does an official tell what's a fake and what isn't?

It's less relevant now that the players on the lane can't enter until the ball hits the rim or backboard, so it would have to be one hel1 of an obvious fake before I'd even think about whistling the violation.
