A player doesn't have a right to a spot on the floor simply because a part of his body is over that spot. If he did, then extending elbows, knees, etc would be legal screening tactics. A player is entitled to the space he takes up while in a normal stance. I've always interpreted "normal" to mean "upright" (or nearly so). Otherwise, why couldn't you stand on one foot and stick all your other limbs out to the side? That'd be quite a screen!
You spent way too much time in New York.Yer talkin' funny.

Bent over. Hands on knees. Not moving.
Legal to thump him?
No.
Foul on the thumper.
