a. The dribbler catches or causes the ball to come to rest in one or both hands.
b. The dribbler palms/carries the ball by allowing it to come to rest in one or both hands.
c. The dribbler simultaneously touches the ball with both hands.
d. The ball touches or is touched by an opponent and causes the dribbler to lose control.
e. The ball becomes dead.

In the OP's b assuming a normal dribble to be able to pin the ball to the floor the ball would have to come to rest in his/her hand. Subsequent dribbling would be an illegal dribble without intervention.
