I actually played these travels over in slow motion and they were in fact travels. One of them was were he picked up his pivot foot and started a dribble (very slight).
Ok, I can live with that. I didn't have the benefit of replay and I thought that he put it down before lifting the pivot.

The other one he actually traveled twice because when he caught the ball he landed on his back foot first hence establishing it as his pivot.
And the problem here is that it's legal in the NBA with the 2-count for establishing your pivot. The NBA players (most US players, for that matter) just aren't familiar with the int'l rules.
