The situation that gets coaches and crowds upset is when the defense tips a ball in the front court; but before it goes into the back court it touches an offensive player. Sort of the "double tip" situation.

in that instance ( "double tip") ; team control was lost with the defensive tip and not reestablished with the offensive tip so no violation. correct ?
