You don't give them the benefit of the doubt in this case because dribblers gather with a foot on the ground, the majority of the time, and it would give them an advantage to allow a pivot. Since it is a violation and can be used as an advantage, why would this be different from someone carrying the ball and freezing a defender?

How big is the attachment? If it isn't too big, you can send it to me through an email. What is the clip going to show me? Remember, the NBA has a different traveling rule, or at least they interpret it differently. This is one thing that will get you in trouble if you apply it to a college or high school game.

Tell me (us) how much experience you have and at what level? I want to say up front, I have seen you work (on tape) and you are good. Being a good, young official still isn't a replacement for games during a season.
