How many steps he takes between dribbles has nothing to do with it. It doesn't take a genius to recognize an interrupted dribble.

The ball gets away from the dribbler on EVERY dribble. It leaves the hand hits the floor and returns to the hand, the ball is NEVER under constant control, yet it is considered under player control.
All you have done is define what a dribble is.

But I guess if what you say is true, then there's no such thing as player control during a dribble.

Quote:
The definition of an interrupted dribble DOES speak of accidental loss of the ball, reguardless if the word accidental does not exist in the wording.
Now that makes a lot of sense.
