rainmaker,

Look again at the definition of a dribble that I posted: (4-15-1) "A dribble is ball movement caused by a player in control who bats (intentionally strikes the ball with the hand(s)) or pushes the ball to the floor once or several times."

Now do you think that the ball bouncing off a player's leg is a second dribble?
That should answer your question.

PS Thanks to you and Hawks Coach for the props.
