Doug Gotlieb is a completely stupid guy. For one, if there was a travel, "IT WAS NOT BECAUSE HE SWITCHED PIVOT FEET." The only way there could be a travel if you say the right foot (which was the pivot foot) was moved and you can make a case he was pushed. You can always pick up the pivot foot to shoot and pass (which by the way was the explanation CBS gave me over the phone). When are these guys going to ever pick up a rulebook and actually read it? When?

Rut that is an excellent and accurate post. The right foot did slide a bit after he recovered the ball and began his move, but as you noted there was some contact from behind at that point. The pivot foot was twisting anyway and it pretty much stayed in the same location on the floor.
Now I would like to hear more details about your calling CBS on the phone!
