Picture this:

a player catches or pass (or picks up his dribble) with both feet off of the floor. The first foot to touch when he lands is the pivot foot. He lands on pivot foot, steps, leaping off of the other foot. He may now land on both feet provided he lands on both feet simultaneously. Once he lands, neither foot can be a pivot. He may step but he can not place a foot back down.
