Certainly seems like some kind of violation but "an illegal start of a dribble."? Same as double dribble in anybody's opinion? Wording seems tricky to me.
But he didnt say anything about a dribble, just a pass. The pivot foot can be lifted, not put back to the floor. But is cant be lifted before the start of a dribble.
