Essentially, there are two types of team control without either being clearly defined.
Pseudo Team Control starts when the ball is placed at the disposal of a thrower.
True Team Control starts when a player first obtains player control inbounds.
Both end at the same time....when the ball is released on a try, the other team gains control, etc.
Psuedo Team Control is all that is needed for a team control foul.
True Team Control is needed for any other case.
