In the NBA, the gather step is not the pivot. A player picking up his dribble with his right foot on the floor, the RF is the gather step (or zero step) and then he has two more steps (LF RF) to shoot or pass. If he comes to stop, the LF will be his pivot foot.

Interesting, do you have an online link to this language? I don't find zero step on the NBA rulebook online.
