Come on, BZ, this has been an excellent discussion with no personal attacks so far. Let's keep it that way.
My question to you would be, the definition of player control. If the dribbler pushes the ball forward and then takes several steps without touching the ball, but could still dribble again at any point if she chose to, does she still have player control? Is that a different scenario from the one where the dribbler pushes the ball forward, and then steps around the defender? In this second case, the "dribbler" could not decide at any moment to continue the dribble. THe defender's body is in the way, thus the dribble could be considered interrupted, albeit an "intentional" interruption. At the point where the defender is between the dribbler and the ball, does the dribbler have player control? I'm not asking this to be a smart-aleck, I'm just not sure what the various issues are here.
