When describing the two lines that run perpendicular to the sidelines and running completely from one sideline to the other sideline approximately 4 feet behind the front of the backboard TO A REFEREE OR WHEN CONVERSING WITH A REFEREE use the term "end line."
When discussing these same two lines with a COACH (or most any other basketball person) using the term "baseline" is more common.
Know your audience and speak accordingly.
