Completely legal. The only way it would be illegal is if the ball handler somehow flipped over or tried to get up. Sliding on the floor alone is not a violation of the rules.

Legal. If you are talking about just sitting up and not trying to get completely off the floor.

This is a violation. You have to complete the pass without touching the out of bounds lines.
