When did a hand on the side of the ball become palming?

When it became "steering"

Can you point out for me where the rule (or case book) defines steering? Or tell me what steering is? How do you change the direction of the ball without steering it?

Hey Gary, I think you know pretty much what she's talking
about, we've all seen it and a lot of it was covered
as an NF POE last year. Gripping the ball on the top or
side, either with the hand (big boys) or by holding
it between the hand & forearm (littler guys) during a
dribble is to be considered a dribbling violation. Most
often accompanied by the up-on-your-toes-suspended-
animation-fake-move that is so popular these days, which
is where the "steering" comes in. You can actually buy
videotapes that teach this move.
