Pauli...I know this adds a little to your question, but if A1 has not used their dribble they can throw the ball off of the opponents backboard and be the first to touch it. Depending on what they do after they touch it...a violation may follow.
For example; A1 has not used their dribble and throws the ball of the opponents backboard and then (a) catches the ball in both hands, (b) catches the ball in both hands and dribbles, or (c) does not catch the ball, but continues a dribble when the ball hits the floor.
I don't know if I've given a clear scenario, but (a) and (c) would not be violations. In (a) a dribble started and ended. In (c) a dribble started and continued. In (b) a violation has occured as a dribble started...ended...and a second dribble started.
