If we're talking generic terms and not basketball terms, I see no reason why you couldn't hold something with legs or feet any more than you could with hands or arms. Elbows and knees are kind of equivalent here.
Not insisting I'm right here at all. Just saying this version of trying to talk me out of it didn't work.
