Interesting question, and not very well addressed in the rule book.

crew, when I get a chance I 'll post some of the differences in the NBA versus NF and NBA traveling rules. But I can think of a huge difference without even looking! Can you?
Well, difference #1 is that the airball-catch-your-own shot is a travel in NBA - I'll spare crew the $5 fee.

The main difference, though, is that travelling is called in NF and not in NBA.
