a. Holding a live ball; or
b. Dribbling a live ball while inbounds.
Additionally, there is this, which is directly on point in regards to this conversation:
4-9 Art. 4. There shall be no team control during:
a. A jump ball;
b. The tapping of a rebound (unless it is a try for goal);
c. A try for goal after the ball is in flight;
d. The period that follows any of these acts (a-c) while the ball is being batted (from the vicinity of other players) in an attempt to secure control; or
e. A dead ball.
So what am I missing? Seriously wish folks would actually look up and read a rule before telling others what the rule is. We get enough misinformation in AAU and Summer ball locker rooms.

Rule 4 Section 12
Art 2...A team is in control of the ball:
b. While a live ball is being passed among teammates.
Rule 4 Section 31
A pass is movement of the ball caused by a player who throws, bats or rolls the ball to another player.
So if the "intentional" batting of the ball into the backcourt was to a teammate then this is a backcourt violation.
