I agree with Nevada on this. I think that is a bad explanation.
If you work a lot of boy's basketball and this is a common call, then I think you will get run out of that level quickly. This is really the case when you have really tall and physical players that will have opponents bounce off of them on a regular basis. Maybe that works with girl's basketball (as I do not call those games), but on the boy's side this will get you killed.
