This ain't rocket science.
Speaking of rocket science...

What if the ball just happens to be ON the floor as the player pushes it?

You have a dribble now?
Speaking of rocket science ... that ball on the floor isn't really at rest on the floor but because of kenetic energy is actually minutely bouncing- more so when rolling.
