Tony knows his b/c stuff. Whenever he speaks on the subject, listen to him.
Here are the rules which back what he wrote:
4-12-5 ... Team control does not exist during a jump ball or the touching of a rebound, but is re-established when a player secures control.
4-15-4 Note 2: A player is not dribbling while slapping the ball during a jump, when a pass rebounds from his/her hand, when he/she fumbles, or when he/she bats a rebound or pass away from other players who are attempting to get it. The player is not in control under these conditions.
