Right now, I'm on the side of calling backcourt violations in parts 1 and 3, but I'm far from sure that I'm right.
As you many times do NV, you're posting what you think without any backing from the Fed. There's no indication that the Fed wants us to rule any differently when there's an interrupted dribble.

Say it?

Or is it that the 'rules' don't say that an interrupted dribble means the dribble has ended?

Not the same thing in a rules based system of moderate complexity.
Six of one, half dozen of the other, Jeff.
