I wish I could remember who the commentator was, but it was an NBA game on CBS a few years ago and during a spot inbound play, something happened having to do with the team not having control while the inbounder was holding the ball OOB. One of the coaches asked about it and the referee (I think it was Dick Bavetta) said there was "no control". The commentator, who I'll call Brainiac, said "No control! How can there be no control? He was holding the ball with both hands!"
