C'mon Woddy, you're better than that.
An interrupted dribble occurs when the ball
a) is loose after deflecting off the dribbler
b)
or after it momentarily gets away from the dribbler.
A dribble does
NOT have to deflect off the dribbler to be an interrupted dribble.

Until another player gains control of the ball or the ball is dead, it continues to be an interrupted dribble and Team A continues to have team control. You know that. That's not even close to being a reasonable argument.
