Not original question I know.
Guys first I am not AARef from this other board. Second I did change the question a bit to emphasize my point. The point is on a rebound Player taps ball from the air(never holding it), turns now taps it again, slowly reduces the tap/slap bat to a back and forth motion between hand and starts running down the court, spins around opponent while tapping back and forth, backs into the lane while tapping, by now you have an atrocity of the game. Both Bktballref and Jurassic ref said they have nothing on this. I realize I over emphasized the question. The point is they have nothing. Whether it is semantics or not this is clearly a violation and not the intent of the rule. I can not believe how they could let this go and have nothing. This is not what Dennis Rodman did. I know the difference. I would use judgement and know it may not be the first tap.(definitely not) nor the second, but at somepoint during the spin move to the basket I have traveling. This is called judgement and intent of the rules. Does this happen often, NO, could this happen, YES. If it does then you have to use common sense on how you are going to handle it and that would be by calling traveling.
