End of game play from the Land of Steady Habits
Found this "gem" on Yahoo!

A game-winning 4-point play, complete with midcourt buzzer beater - Prep Rally - High School - Yahoo! Sports

Looking closely at the video, to me it looks as if the player traveled before releasing the shot/getting fouled.

Also was she actually fouled as it looks as if she was off balance releasing the shot.

Everyone else's thoughts??

I see nothing but a stupid foul by a defender and a lucky three point shot.

The reason the girl is off balance is because she gets hip checked. She was well under control before that contact occurred.

The point is that he's learned to search Yahoo, or click on whatever shows up on their front page, and wants us all to know about it.

I'm not clicking on every single basketball story & posting it however, so there are some breaks

It's like the coach who talks too much during the game, leading you to ignore him. Then, when he has a legitimate question or needs a time out, you miss it because you had to tune him out.

Close, but there was not a travel. I can't comment on the foul aspect because of the video quality.
