I call boolsh!t! The mechanic used at that time was to bird-dog until the hand went up. We also had to tell the player and the player then had 5 seconds to raise their hand. So no, trying sumthin' like that never worked most of the time or even some of the time. Unless you're talking about college intramurals with pick-up officials.
