Arizona vs. Gonzaga...did Arizona have possesion of the ball when he was dribbling on floor...then shot clock violation followed. What do you think?

Absolutely....the guy had two hands on the rebound and then a couple of dribbles (not "bats" either, dribbles)...

Too bad...what a game, though!

Absolutely had possesion
 
He was dribbling the ball. That is part of the (very circular) definition of control. The shot clock operator has a lot more influence on many games than the game clock operator!

Yeah but the play at the other end evened it up!

'Zona with the ball, official whistles a foul but seeing that the ball went OOB, changed his call. But his partner came to him because the ball went off the dribbler. So, instead of shooting the bonus, 'Zaga gets the ball back.

It all came out in the wash.
