If I think the hand is affecting the dribbler at all, I have a call. Many times it's hard to tell if the defender is applying any pressure or just touching... but if the hand stays there for more than a dribble or two, I'm calling that one too. One thing I've noticed (and that is part of my pregame) is that this is one of those calls to make early. A handcheck or two in the first quarter generally puts a stop to it for the whole game.
