IMO, his left foot was the pivot foot. Not only did he lift it; It was switch throughout the movement. He stepped and pivot on the right foot turning towards the lane lifting the left. Then, he stepped (with left) and pivot towards the baseline with the left resulting in the successful shot.

Left was his pivot (this is all after he recoved the ball)....spun to the left, brought his right foot around, lifted his left foot in the air as he went to the right, then shot the ball before his left foot came back down.

(By the way, this part is from memory---I might have changed the feet by mistake, but you should get my drift)--Edit.

Yes, he went to his right foot as he spun, but the left foot did not return to the floor before he shot the ball.

Oh my goodness. They are talking about him changing his pivot and it should have been a walk at HALFTIME of the USC/UNC game. They still think it should be a walk when he lifted his pivot foot. I bet every basketball official in the country is beside himself (and to the PC out there, herself) right now.

Sad, no correct rules input in that amount of time?

I saw the game live at a restaurant where the sound was muted so I missed the first round of live comments. But Gumble and his buddies just stated that it was "clearly a walk" during the halftime show of the late game. How long until the fanboys are debating this on YouTube?
