Who You Gonna Call ??? Mythbusters ...

It is legal use of hands to accidentally hit the hand of the opponent when it is in contact with the ball. This includes holding, dribbling, passing, or even during a shot attempt. Striking a ball handler or a shooter on that player's hand that is incidental to an attempt to play the ball is not a foul, no matter how loud it sounds or how much it hurts.

yeah i'm okay with the slapping the ball out of my hand but I'm not okay with his body slamming at me all the time. The way it looks like, he's trying to tackle me without grabbing me. His said to me its perfectly legal because he's not using his hands to grab or hold me.

Pick-up ball is what it is, but if you're going by the rules, he's wrong.
