The casebook I have is most definitely not a local thing. It is titled Fiba Casebook WORLD EDITION and is written by members of the FIBA World Technical Commission, for use in international play. You are relying on an old f.a.q. posted on fiba website that says there is no casebook...that info is seriously out of date. Two WORLD EDITION casebooks have been published: 2004 and 2006. In both casebooks they refer to CASE 38-5 there is no rule 38-5. It is a warning to the player followed by a technical foul if the player goes out of bounds again. Thats the way I am going to call this situation. I believe it is a clear advantage to run out of bounds in you frountcourt to play offense.
