The carry: walk or double dribble?

[rwest]

When the ball comes to rest in the palm of the hand, the dribble has ended. What happens next determines if it is a travel or double dribble. I see this most often when the player is running up the court. If the ball comes to rest in his hand he will probable take two steps before the ball is returned to the floor. Tweet! Travel.

If he is dribbling while standing still and the ball comes to rest in his hand and he dribbles again. Tweet! Double Dribble.

That's my .02.
