Bottom line, there are situations where the C will have to make a BC violation call, even when the ball is in the FC.
I know there are different philosophies out there....

Settling below the FT line isn't even part of my thought process when it comes to initiating a rotation. All I care is that the ball and the officials are in the frontcourt.

For example, if a trap happens anywhere on the C's side, I'm rotating as the lead, so the C can take a step out and properly officiate the trap. Likewise, if a player is posting up on the C's side and the ball is anywhere on that side of the court, I'm likely going across. If I wait untiol the ball's passed into the post, I've waited too long.
