Power Dribble From Post Player

From Jurassic Referee: " It is legal to bounce the ball with 2 hands at the end of a dribble. You also can always legally start a dribble by bouncing the ball with both hands."

Jurassic Referee's statement correctly describes a power dribble move often used by post players. Catch the ball with two hands with your back to the basket, start your dribble with two hands, moving at an angle toward the basket, after only one dribble, catch the ball with both hands, begin to take a step to the basket and make the layup.
