Sounds like a good call to me.

You're entitled to that opinion. Did you look at my rule reference? The ball does not have to be released for a shot to take place.
Let's look at the NCAA sitch. In the play that you describe, would the shot clock reset? And it so, how can you call it traveling if a shot has been taken?
