I know what a traveling violation is and when I see it, I call it. I am starting to maybe see that one should not call every stinking travel that he sees. There are some travels that no one in the gym would even notice, especially the travel when leading with the pivot foot to start a dribble. What is the key to being consistent in this area?
The key to consistency is experience. Really. Keep trying watch a lot of ball when you're not working. Try to develop rhythm runs in your head: Ste-e-p, ste-e-p, gather,stp,stp, shot okay. Ste-e-e-p, gather, stp,stp,stp --TWEET! Watch the best refs in your area, and pick up these rhythms. Then just live into them. Keep trying. Keep working. You'll get there!
