Funny Vid / Palming-Carrying?

Besides the fantastic sound effects and expert instruction, are you of the opinion that the moves he performs with the 2 chairs is a palming violation?

didn't watch it, but since there aren't two chairs on the floor at most of my games, I don't think I'll have to worry about it.

What's the definition of palming?

At least since Bobby Knight retired.

On a serious note, I do not see a palming violation. The hand is on top and high, but that is not what I would classify as a violation. Oh well.

Peace

Thanks, that's kind of what I was thinking, but the ball does seem to come to rest, in a strange way, with his hand somewhat at the side of the ball. It just looked so awkward (which doesn't mean it's illegal) that I thought I'd see other opinions.

Never mind the palming. Wouldn't this be a travel?. He takes several steps after crossing over before dribbling again

Fundamental of basketball... you can NOT travel while dribbling.

True, however you could make the argument that the dribble ended, then he took steps, therefore making it a travel.

No way I'm allowing that play in one of my games. Have to imagine that some sort of unfair advantage would be gained there.

You'll need to review the rules about what ends a dribble. Hint, the number of steps taken between dribbles isn't part of the equation; otherwise you'd need to call a travel on most fast breaks.

You need to determine whether the ball came to rest in his hand (that's what ends a dribble). If it did, you can call palming or traveling or illegal dribble. If not (and that's the general opinion here), it's play on. You might want to give the former defender time to find his shoes, though.
