is that a correct call?

If the ball was in your hands when you stepped with your left foot, then, yes, it was a travel. Whan you stepped with your left foot, you right foot became your pivot. When you lifted the right foot and stepped, you traveled.

I shoot the ball. Right after releasing the ball, the defender smacks me on the wrist, so that his fingers get locked in between my fingers. the ref calls nothing.
is that a foul or not?

No. If he hit you on the wrist, how could your fingers become interlocked with his fingers? Sounds like he hit you on the hand. If the ball is already gone, then the contact couldn't have any affect on the shot. If the ball was still in your hand, the hand is considered to be part of the ball.

a 2 on 1 break for them (i'm that one on D)
player B1 gets the ball, i put my hands around him so he doesn't get an easy layup and would shoot FTs (we're in the penalty by then)when i do that, he passes off and B2 makes a layup. shouldn't that have been a foul on me??

I would do one of two things. I would call an intentional foul on you or I would ignore your foul and allow B2 to have his layup. Why penalize the offense when you're not playing defense?
Can't catch a break, can you?
