the rule states the dribble ends when the ball is resting on the hand, so do we consider the dribble has ended the moment the player initiates a spin, or we can argue that the ball hasn't rested on the hand and only rested when the player take his 1st foot out for the spin and established a pivot foot and another step on the non pivot foot to complete a 360 spin?
From the video we can see he pretty much held the ball with the wrist but what if it was just on the hand like a dribble spin? |
It is illegal to lift and replant your pivot foot. It is illegal to lift your pivot before releasing the ball for a dribble. Stick to that without all the abstract "what ifs".
I have no idea what an "NBA 360 spin" move is.
The guy in the video does an excellent job describing what is and isn't legal in regards to jumpstops.
