Technically, in NFHS this play could be ruled an illegal dribble if a shot did not take place because the backboard is considered part of the court. Similarly, if you attempt to pass the ball to a teammate after picking up a dribble and then running to get it after it hits the floor and before it touches anyone else, or if you think the official's your teammate and pass the ball off of the official and then retrieve it (I've seen this happen by the way), it's an illegal dribble. However, it's gotta be blatently advantageous and obvious if it hits the backboard or I rule it a shot.
