Release or bounce?

The answer:
If the ball does not bounce, NO....illegal dribble or travel (it could be deemed to be either).
If the ball bounces before being touched, YES....that is a dribble by definition.
I am out of town and do not have the book in front of me, but I thought the traveling restriction from the pivot foot moving only applied until the ball was released? I do not recall the ball having to bounce before the pivot foot moves matters for a travel to take place.

Could someone post that part of the rule please?

Peace
