I really have to disagree with that one. the palming or carrying violation, occurs as soon as the ball is pushed back toward the floor.
That is not how/when a palming violation is called at any level it is called as soon as the ball is started back to the floor.

I've never seen the whistle blow before the ball reaches the dribbler's hand again. You'd have to be very careful about this, as this could easily be a drop pass to A2, whom you may not see coming in behind him if you're officiating the defense. For me, it's not a violation until it hits his hand again, and if B1 hits the ball before it gets back to A1, then I'm not calling a violation on A1. I'm pretty sure I can justify this to my assigner, and I'm positive I can explain it to my satisfaction to any coach who might ask.
