But they would just T him up for it. You can't just stand out of bounds during a game.

Didn't Rodman stand out of bounds on offense some plays by the baseline on offense? I don't know if it was him, but I remember someone did it back in the day.

there have been a few times this season where Kobe deserved to be yelled at

yes it'll look hilarious but it's worth the fact that he wont get fouled. if there is a way he can just stand out of bounds during the play, that would be the best solution. although like someone said earlier, i doubt the officials would let that happen

That reminds me of a scene back in the 1990's where it did happen. I forgot who the player was but I definitely remember it. He was running along the sideline while two of the opponents' players were chasing him around.

May have been Rodman.
