3) If ball was blocked on a shot and ball was released and then caught by the same player before he returned to the floor then NO CALL --> Casebook 25-10. If it was not on a shot then you have to decide whether or not Offensive player lost control of the ball if he did then he cannot travel --> Travel can only occur during player control
I think you are referencing NFHS casebook so I will state the following

1) for FIBA we are being taught that firm grip means that it would take some force for one of the players to take the ball away from the other in order for that to be a held ball situation.
2) exactly the same
3) although the shot attempt has ended the player is still considered an airborne shooter until both feet are on the floor again. If the player regains control before landing again it is also a travel.
