Yes, if the ball and most of the players, especially the post players are across the paint from you, then you ought to get over "ball side". They don't do this everywhere, so ask around to see if it's done in your area.
We're sure don't do that here. We would close down to the FT lane line on the L's side but rarely would we go across.
