Coach P is right.
Bouncing the ball with 2 hands at the exact same time is
NOT an illegal dribble and a violation. Nor has it ever been an illegal dribble and a violation in any ruleset- NFHS, NCAA or NBA.
It's just another case of your failure to understand the most basic of rules.
Touching the ball with both hands at the same time while dribbling legally
ends a dribble. If you dribble
again, it now becomes an illegal (second) dribble. Iow, it is legal to bounce the ball with 2 hands at the end of a dribble. It is illegal to touch the ball after that though unless it touches or is touched by another player first.
Of course, you also can always legally
start a dribble by bouncing the ball with both hands and then legally continue to dribble.
