Duck: The move being talked about here is the player catching the ball with his/her right foot inside the three point arc touching down first, then the left foot touching down outside the arc. The player then steps back with the right foot, places it on the ground outside the arc, and shooting the ball. Once the right foot touched down, it became the pivot foot. Once lifted and placed back down again, travel. It is not very often that you see a player lift the right foot and jump in the air or shoot off of one foot (the left) as you describe. Most times, and I agree it is often not called (why I'm not sure), is right foot down, then left foot down, step back with the right, step and shoot. This is a travel.
