NCAA/NFHS/and I think FIBA as well:
Catch or end a dribble with:
One one foot:
-If the player steps with the other foot, then the first is the pivot foot
OR
-If the player jumps off that one foot, they
MUST land on both feet simultaneously, and
MAY NOT pivot
Both feet in the air:
-If he lands on both feet simultaneously, he may pivot with either foot.
OR
-If he lands on one foot, then it'll be the pivot foot,
IF the player steps with his other foot
OR
If he lands one one foot, he may jump off that foot. If he does so, he
MUST land simultaneously. He will
NOT HAVE A PIVOT.
Not sure how to make this any simpler. Ask yourself this in your scenarios. When was the dribble end or the ball caught. Then ask yourself if the player had a foot on the floor or he caught the ball in the air. After that, ask yourself if the player landed simultaneously if stated. That should answer any of your questions.
