Chuck, I agree, kinda, I was just taking it a little further then the point in the article. That Mag. i'm not sure if i should say the name b/c of the previous problems. Anyway they just said when a dribbler loses her balance and
falls oob when not in contact with the ball we have violation as soon as the player touches oob. I was taking the point further. Diff. situation, dribbler loses balance, falls oob just before another player grabs the ball. Remember she taps the ball one last time to the floor, making sure she is not touching the ball as she touches oob. I have seen this type play and i have passed on the violation b/c i felt she tried to end the dribble. Sometimes to isn't so clear if they try to end the dribble, the player justs wants to keep the ball inbounds before stepping oob. then they make sure they don't touch the ball until another player touches it. Maybe you have to read the article.
