By rule (case book 4.15.4 -c ) you can end your dribble,
throw the ball off your backboard and dribble again !
Throwing the ball off your backboard does not constitute a part of a dribble, while throwing the ball off your opponent's backboard or an official constitutes another dribble.
IS THERE A COACH OUT THERE THAT HAS EVER TAUGHT A PLAYER TO
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS RULE IN A GAME SITUATION ???
Would ending your dribble, throwing the ball off an opponent
and dribbling again be legal as well ??
