Agreed. Just because the level of contact had been passed on all night doesn't mean you have to pass on this one. Perhaps none of the others ultimatley created an advantage. This one appears to have caused the dribbler to actually lose the ball....advantage to the defense.
This is one of those that you can pass on until the player loses the ball. If the coach asks, I tell them that I was going to pass as long as the player kept control of the ball.
The timing of apparently minor contact can have very different degress of effect on a dribbler.

I can't agree completely. The only time I think this is viable is when the defender does have the hand on/near the ball around the same instant that the dribbler last touches the ball. If they're no where near the ball, forget it. It's not a credible call.
