And would it be the same if B2 got the pass, shot at the wrong basket, got the rebound out of the air and dribbled? Or got the pass, shot at the wrong basket, let the ball hit the floor, then grabbed it and dribbled?

I briefly tried looking in the Rule and Case books, but didn't see anything.

4.15.4c
If another player touches the ball first after hitting the board it is a pass under rules. If the player who threw it is first to touch it , it is a dribble.

If the player hasn't dribbled, throws it off of backboard(opponents) if ball is bouncing around he can continue to dribble it. If he touches it w 2 hands the dribble is over. If he then dribbles again, double dribble.

9-5 is the illegal dribble section. Take a look at that.
