I guess you have never heard the term, "Call the Obvious" either?
And no I do not see a travel on the spin move. Sorry, I cannot see how that is so obvious half a court away. Then again, my life is not depending on it either.

So it's okay to move the pivot foot a couple of inches. How many?
I have heard call the obvious, but I've also heard that if you call only the obvious you let a lot go, which I know many players and coaches like.
I find that a travel in a case like this is perhaps easier to see from this distance than close up. It allows you to see the whole picture, that the player had control of the ball, and that he moved both feet, one then the other, a couple of feet, not a couple of inches.
