Rule 9-1, Art. 2. After the ball is placed at the disposal of a free-thrower:
g. Players not in a legal marked lane space shall remain behind the free- throw line extended and behind the three-point field-goal line until the ball strikes the ring, flange or backboard, or until the free throw ends.

Well, there you go. The OP and the refs were wrong, the opponents were correct.

Pretty simple. Players not along the the lane line share the same restrictions as the FT shooter.
