I think I saw that happening: the player started to go left, hesitated, and either stopped or went right. Left was toward the basket and thus a backdoor cut.
Sometimes faking out your own teammates hurts much more than faking out the opponent helps! In a totally different context, I notice the same thing when playing cards...
