Okay, what about put the ball on the floor and hold it down while getting up but never pick up the ball. Hold it until someone else came and got it. I saw this happen and had no clue what to think!! I gave the kid the no-call for being creative (the other coach didn't feel quite so charitable)

In this case, the player is (as you said) holding the ball. Therefore standing is a travel.
Now, if he/she were to put the ball down, stand, then guard the ball (like during a kickoff in football), another teammate could pick it up.
