B1 gets 1 hand on the ball so firmly that control cannot be obtained without undue roughness. Is this a held ball or do both players have to have 2 hands on the ball? I think held ball.

Nothing says two hands are necessary for a held ball. Happens all the time on a shot. Shooter has ball in one hand, defender stops it with one hand. It stops ball from being released. Held ball.
