I've always thought that was travelling, and everybody on my team thought the same. Are we wrong about that? The refs swore to us that we were insane. I say they are. Who's right?

Thanks,

As long as it's an attempted shot, the shooter can retrieve the airball and do anything they want. It's a violation in the NBA only, not in college or HS.
