When the defender got up in the guy's grill, I'm sure not focusing on the pivot foot.
I think that those that say they're calling a travel aren't treating this like they're actually on the floor, but instead have the luxury of watching it 10 times in super-slo-mo. Even then, I don't see an obvious travel that would draw a call.
