What rules apply to rolling the ball down the floor? I'm talking about never having picked up the ball. I saw this done by a gal who ran after a loose ball. By the time she got to it, it was rolling. She never picked it up, just "herded" it down the floor. It sounds like it wouldn't be good play, but she was short and scooted in between several defenders, bot the ball to the post, who got the basket. I wasn't working, but asked the guy that was , and he said, since she never began a dribble, it wasn't travelling or double dribble, and that it broke no rules. I've been looking through the book and can't find anything applicable either for or against. What do you experts have to offer?
