The camera is on the other side of the court. The camera is not sitting right next to the Trail or within 20 feet even if you consider the zoom possibility. And if I called a travel from the Trail where he was standing, the coach is going to go ballistic when you are that far away and an official is standing right there. And I know I would be pissed with a partner that made a call I clearly was on top of. You cannot travel on a dribble or when you do not have control of the ball. Two very important things you cannot clearly see. So what his feet are doing is irrelevant to me.
I know this is going to be hard for you to understand. The officials passed on the play for a reason. I know you think you are the best official alive and you can see things that officials on the game cannot see, because you can slow down the tape and watch it over and over again. My first instinct it was suspect at best and with all my experience watching and breaking down tape I feel the same way now. I really think you are reaching when you claim this was right next to the trail's position. If I can see the official’s entire torso, the camera was not just over his shoulder. Give me a break.
Peace
