BillyMac, while you are on the nose about there not being team control during a throw-in, I thought we should be incredibly nit-picky for the newbies. Your sentence above might be construed as meaning that team control is defined as occurring whenever a player is holding or dribbling the ball. Of course, what you mean is that during a time of no team control (such as a throw-in), team control is established when a player establishes player control, which is defined as a player holding or dribbling a live ball inbounds.
Again, just being nit-picky, probably because those damn nits have been running around my office all day!
