Question

Was watching a fall game and sat behind a coach listening to him tell his players how to bump the cutter.

Sitch: Player without the ball on the weakside short corner is attempting to cut into the paint to the high post. Defender in the paint closes the gap alter the path of the cut. Instead of maintaining a traditional "deny" position (partly facing the cutter while keeping an eye on the ball handler), coach tells the players to open up to the ball, widen their stance, and bump and block the cutter using their legs, backside, and rear end.

Didn't see any blocking fouls called in the game as a result. Legal or not?
