This is to settle a disagreement. As always, I am happy to be corrected if I ever happened to be wrong.  |
You're corrected; you're wrong. The dribble ended when it went off B1. Note that it's a loss of player control also, but not a loss of team control.
See rule 9-5-3 and case book plays 4.15.4SitF and 9.5.3 for the concept. The ball hitting B1 is considered a fumble.
