(3) A1 has the ball (w/o starting a dribble) and attempts a pass to A2; yet fumbles the ball as the ball is passed. A1 then retrieves the ball - Legal? I say Yes, since its a 'fumble' !
(4) A1 in the post ( w/o a previous dribble ) dribbles the ball w/two hands and then picks it up to attempt a 'shot' - Legal? I say 'yes'...a few have stated that this is a 'double-dribble' - wrong !
Thanks ahead of time for the replies !

1) No mention of feet or pivot feet. SO until I know what the feet were doing during this time I can't determine travel or not by just what the ball is doing.
2) Again "goes and retrieves" does not tell me what his/her feet are doing. THis is pretty important information in determining a travel.
3) There is nothing illegal here, but there might be if we knew what was being judged a fumble and what they did with their feet to retrieve it.
4) Agreed.
