The player "lifted the pivot foot"...so you are saying that would be a travel?

4-44-3a

But it's a violation to start a dribble while the pivot foot is off the ground (4.43.3 A (d))

I believe RookieDude knew that, his point was that moving the pivot foot itself is not illegal. It is only illegal if you start to dribble and your pivot foot moves.

I see...I read his post wrong at first.

Yes, but hoopguy's post was in direct response to a question about whether the player could continue a dribble.

Thanks Snaqs...I took hoopguy's statement out of context.

The OP was a set shot.

Some things you just know.
