I have read the thread "most misunderstood basketball rules" and I dont know excactly how to interpret rule nr.10 (palming or carrying the ball).
Some time ago this violation was defined by the hand beeing under the ball / the palm pointing towards the ceiling or by the hand exceeding 90 degrees angle when dribbling. But now this has been changed to "comes to rest in the player's hand".
My question is; how would you define the word "rest" in the players hand. Are the "old" definition still applicable?
I.E. if I do not dribble the ball with the hand under the ball or not exceeding 90 degrees angle, am I "safe" then?
(I hope this will not turn up as a "double-post as I tried to post this earlier without any noticable effect).
