This has been debated at length before. Nearly everyone disagreed with me.
(imagine that) Read the definition of a dribble.
".....when a player pushes the ball to the floor...."
No subsequent touch is mentioned in the definition.
Situation: A1, isolated against B1, has used his dribble. There is a pause. A1 gives a head fake, then puts the ball on the floor in an attempt to drive past B1.
Before the ball is touched again by A1, B1 reaches out and swipes at the ball, knocking it out of bounds.
What is the call? Whose ball is it?
