1) Read rule 9-5-2. The first dribble ended with the touch by an opponent. They can legally dribble again.

Yes, please do read 9-5-2. As Nevadaref points out, the player may dribble again only if there is a LOSS OF CONTROL caused by an opponent's touch.

just want to briefly point out that 10 officials gathered together with no women included is too bad. I know a lot of you will disagree with me and I know all the reasons why, but it's my opinion.

Too bad for the wimmen; great for the men.

Good point. I'm also wondering if there was representation from the under 5'3" community.

(Bhuch sent an email asking me to post this btw)

I realize that you that and Nevada are infallible, but I gotta confess that personally I've never been able to definitively tell exactly what is a loss of control is in those bang-bang circumstances, That's why I usually give the benefit of the doubt to the dribbler.

Maybe one day though....I can only hope and dream.

Well, here's one to tell: when the test question TELLS you that there's no loss of control

Quote:
1) While A1 is dribbling past an opponet, the ball touches the opponent without loss of control by A1.
Stick with it for another 80 years and you might just get the hang of this officiating thing.
