We had a debate about this. A player would try this to dunk the ball after throwing it off of the backboard. My questions:

Is it correct to say that how a player throws the ball of the backboard must be taken into account? Meaning that, while running, the ball can be grasped with two hands and tossed against the backboard or sort of tapped/pushed to the backboard with one hand. Depending on the manner in which they do this it could be considered part of the dribble.

How many people would put a whistle on this?
I can't answer the speicific question, but those that would call this a violation are incorrect. There's a specific AR (NCAA rules), and iirc, a FED case that call this legal.

Bob, I agree with you. The other guy said he was going to call the board interpreter instead of looking it up himself.

Bob, the Fed case that you are thinking of is the one that Chuck just quoted and pointed out has been changed.
