JRut, I think we as a group analyze everything critically on this board not just travels. It just happens to be the violation that's called - and possibly seen - most often other than a ball going OOB. It's not some sort of tragedy or conspiracy. There are just some plays where we wonder how it was missed.

I'm just baffled why the two travel discussions - this and the Syracuse/Indiana clip - have become so argumentative. Either the players did or they didn't. Some plays may have more debate than others based on camera angles but to add on to what BayState said in the other thread the goal of posting these is to get better.
All basketball plays can be up for debate. We debate block-charge plays (which have clear rules), we debate Flagrant/Intentional Fouls, not sure why we cannot debate travels. There are rules that apply in those cases too. It seems simple to me, but I guess to others they know best.

Peace
