Chuck,

I'm definitely with you on this point. I call travelling all of the time on shooters that have to "set their feet" by taking two steps to get a shot off!! I get a look from them like, "what??". All you have to do is watch them warm up and it is unbelievable how they can't take a shot without travelling first. If I was a coach, I would tell the players they were doing this. But that would make too much sense for a coach to do something like that. I believe that these travels have to be called because the player is definitely gaining an advantage by adjusting both feet. Why aren't all officials calling this play correctly? I especially like the player catching the ball inside the arc and taking two steps back to get behind the line and launching a shot!!

"keep 'em straight up"
