Actually it is an illegal dribble if the player's pivot foot moved. See 4.15.4 sit E. A player cannot travel without holding the ball.

I am going to call you out on that one Nev. I am sure you can think of a couple of ways to travel without holding the ball. I will give you another chance before I post a couple.

Sam,
There is only ONE exception to what I said and that is a goofball play in the Case Book 4.43.5 Sit B. "It is also traveling if A1 puts the ball on the floor, then rises and is first to touch the ball."
I happen to disagree with that interpretation by the Fed and have written about it on this forum. It should not be a travel.
So, I will stand by my statement. If the player is not holding the ball, he/she cannot travel.
But please, enlighten me with your examples. Perhaps you will discover that some of your examples are not travels. Surprise me.
