The case play that some like to cite to support your claim involves a player actively guarding the opponent...meaning the player was moving to maintain LGP but loses it by stepping OOB. It doesn't support your claim at all.

Ball handler and elbows
9-13-2. . . A player may extend arm(s) or elbow(s) to hold the ball under the chin or against the body.
So, A1 holds the ball as described, above, and B2, guarding A2 runs into A1's elbow. What do we have? (I've seen this, numerous times, and even with severe contact to the head of B2.) What judgement factors do you use regarding such contact?

Most of the time, a player only chins the ball when a defensive player is tring to swat at it. So, the chances of having a different defensive player run into the elbow are pretty slim, I would think. |

It is the context. The case is under legal guarding position. If a player isn't moving, they don't need legal guarding position.

I still don't agree

And before someone makes the argument about a stationary player with his back to the offense that never had LGP, the answer to that is that everyone is entitled to a spot on the floor as long as they got there legally. Also provided that spot is on the floor. Not out of bounds on live ball action.

That's easy
For the same reason we don't call a violation when a defender loses their balance and steps out of bounds. They didn't intend to step out of bounds. Intent is required. In most cases they probably didn't realize they were out of bounds.

Are you sure about that? How can you tell? When they created the case play in question, it was precisely targeted at defenders stepping OOB on purpose.
