It doesn't matter "why" the player jumped. The only things that matter are: - the fact that they caught the ball with only one foot on the floor
- the fact that they jumped off of that foot without the other foot touching
- the fact that they landed on both feet simultaneously
Having jumped off of one foot after catching the ball, no pivot has been established (defined in Articles 1 and 2). As such, Articles 3 and 4 do not apply...they are only relevant once the pivot is established. |
Camron, the above isn't applicable. The original post said that the dribble had
ended. After the dribble
ended, the player then jumped to
shoot. You're talking above about the dribble not having ended. That's 2 completely different situations.
You can
END a dribble with a jump stop. But if you do a jump stop
AFTER a dribble has ended, you're traveling.
That's where all the confusion is coming in this thread.
