I think it's exactly like a FT shooter crossing the line before the ball hits the rim, which a lot of stars have done. Shaq in particular had a really hard time not doing it. Nobody lines up with their foot over the line in tennis, they just sometimes go on/over it - as in the linked video - when they shift their feet/jump as part of the service motion. But really, I was just more talking about it as something that's not called nearly as much as the rule is broken. YMMV, I consider it quite comparable in both ways.
