It doesn't.

What Jeff said.

A player is entitled to his position anywhere on the court. A PC foul is a PC foul, no matter where on the court the defender is standing.

I wouldn't be so quick to say "no matter where". Depending on your definition of the court, I'm not going to hand out too many PC fouls if the defender is standing OOB.

Any spot on the floor is good for a defender in NFHS as well as NCAA MEN.

10.6.1 SITUATION C: B1 is standing behind the plane of the backboard before A1 jumps for a lay-up shot. The forward momentum causes airborne shooter A1 to charge into B1. RULING: B1 is entitled to the position obtained legally before A1 left the floor. If the ball goes through the basket before or after the contact occurs, the player-control foul cancels the goal. However, if B1 moves into the path of A1 after A1 has left the floor, the foul is on B1. B1's foul on the airborne shooter is a foul during the act of shooting. If the shot is successful, one free throw is awarded and if it is unsuccessful, two free throws result. (4-19-1, 6; 6-7-4; 10 Penalty 2, 5a)

They're using the exact same definition of the court that the rule book does in rules 1-1 and 4-13. OOB is not part of the court, by rule.

And if the defender even has one foot on the line, he is not in legal guarding position. So, unless the offensive player comes in with a Killer Kowalski flying elbow, it is no call or a block.

Killer Kowalski?

Man, are you dating yourself.:D

...And the Iron Claw. :)

He's dating himself????
:eek: So, does the right hand give the left hand flowers?:D
Which side is the 'Iron Claw'?:rolleyes:

The charge doesn't end in the circle in the NBA, either. The circle only applies to help defenders.

If the offensive player charges into the primary defender, it's still a foul no matter where it occurs.

Now we know why the crowd keeps telling him that he's blind!:eek: :D
