This is why I originally said I'd have to see the play, but I don't know why the multiple bounce would automatically mean no control. What if the dribbler raises both hands to make the timeout signal? About the time you see it, the ball is making a second bounce, still right beside the dribbler. You won't grant the timeout here unless the dribbler touches the ball again?

At most, this would be an interrupted dribble, IMO.

For the purpose of the discussion at hand, an interrupted dribble is still a dribble.
