Retrieving Legal, Dribbling Illegal ...

Partially agree.

Retrieving the ball is legal, not according to the rules, but according to the casebook play, the NFHS says that it's legal. It's there in black and white.

Legal ...

9.5 SITUATION: A1 dribbles and comes to a stop after which throws the

Ever Since I Was A Little Baby, I Always Be Dribblin’ (Cheech and Chong, 1973) …

Agree. However, while he couldn't catch the ball, and start a new dribble; he could just allow the ball to hit the floor, and keep dribbling.

Try Again ...

Rule citation please (assume the player already ended his dribble and the official deemed this play not to be a shot).
