An air dribble is a very old method of dribbling that was allowed. It was disallowed a LONG time ago. It occurred when a player with the ball would bounce the ball off his hand repeatedly while running down the court. At no time would the ball touch the floor. It developed, I believe, out the the rule (at that time) that said a player holding the ball could not run. The normal dribble as we know it was not invented. The only other legal was of advancing the ball was by passing it.
