It's usually pretty easy to differentiate the sound of slapping leather vs. slapping skin.

Hand is part of the ball.
Hand is made of skin.
Defenders have been know to slap their hands together to distract the shooter.
Defender could swing and hit their own leg, or another defender.
We are not bats, we should NEVER make a call based on sound.

Ok, what is the rule reference that supports the hand is part of the ball? I just had this discussion with another ref. and would like to have the rule reference.
