You also could call a carry if you didnt feel it came to rest.

I have illegal dribble either way.
As Billy and Bob said, those are the same thing.

Until about a 10-15 years ago, we didn't have a carry call/signal in the book. It was an illegal dribble. The carry is just a special case of an illegal (double) dribble. It is simply a quick ending of the dribble and a new (illegal) dribble.
