8) Palming or carrying is when a player gains an ADVANTAGE when the ball comes to rest in the player's hand,
and the player either travels with the ball, or dribbles a second time.

And nobody questions this?
Gaining an advantage is not one of the criteria needed for a palming violation. If the ball comes to rest, the dribble has ended. If the dribble has ended, the player can't travel or dribble again.
Advantage/disadvantage has absolutely nothing to do with this call.
Methinks the Dallas refs misunderstood the rules also.
Silly monkey Dallas refs!
