There's that word "gather" again. I don't think many coaches realize when the dribble ends. If they ask q can you pivot after a jump stop the official shoujd say depends on when the dribble ended. With a foot on ground, no pivot. If ended w both feet off ground, yes.
Most of the jump stops we see these days the dribble ends w one foot on ground. Many coaches and other think the dribble isn't ended until ball is touched with both hands.
