The best time to legitimately use the "tip" signal is when the ball goes from front court to backcourt and the play originated in an area that was not the trail official's primary. The primary official can give this signal (if the T looks to him in time) in order to prevent an incorrect backcourt violation if the defense was the last team to touch the ball in the front court.
