Put the ball on the floor

The OP says "avoid the PC, A2 lifted his pivot before he put the ball on the floor."

One can lift his pivot foot drop the ball to the floor (a bounce pass?) but not be the first to touch it.

I think the rule is: You can not left your pivot foot to START a dribble. The START means pushing the ball to the floor. How / When do you determine if it is a start of a dribble or a bounce pass? My interpretation is if the player is the first to touch when it bounces up.

I'm sure there is a case play stating about an airborne shooter dropping the ball to the floor and that explanation may help me if anyone has it.
