KMB has support in the rule book on this...

9-3-3
During a jump ball, throw-in or while on defense, a player may legally jump from his/her frontcourt, secure control of the ball with both feet off the floor and return to the floor with one or both feet in the backcourt. The player may make a normal landing and it makes no difference whether the first foot down is in the frontcourt or backcourt.

It appears it's a matter of what one considers "normal." If the player lands on one leg then stands like a flamingo for 5-6 seconds, that may not be considered "normal." On the flip side, they may be doing that because they think they'll be called for the violation if they put their other foot on the floor in the backcourt.
