It seems to me that "deliberately releasing the ball" is "deliberately releasing the ball", regardless if it goes toward the basket or towards another player?
And by deliberate, I mean not to be confused with an "attempt at possession" (fumble), which is not a "deliberate release of the ball"... or is it?
"Because the Rules Book says so, Coach," seems such a cop-out.
Thanks !

The cop-out is all you will get at the bottom line. Why can't I run with the ball? The rule's say so. Five players? Why not six or four? The rules say so.
