#1 is a violation.... why? Did he bat it with two hands? When he batted it, was his hand under the ball? After he caught it with two hands, did he try to continue dribbling? I know we've gone over this before, but it apparently didn't sink in. Would some patiently condescend to explain this again? Thanks
#2. Legal play, right? Official is wrong?

Rule 4, under definition of dribble, you'll find something that looks like this:
A dribbler is allowed to bat the ball provided he allows it to strike the floor one or more times.
#2 Official is wrong.

Thanks, Dan. I knew that. I was just trying to help out the newbies.
