First of all, please stop yelling (using all capital letters means that you are yelling). The tapped ball that you describe is not considered control so whether or not A1 caught the ball or waited for it to hit the floor, he/she could dribble it once they caught up to it.

The question that zebraman forgot to ask was: Did Team A (the player who did the tapping) have team control of the ball in its frontcourt prior to its player tapping the ball?
