In that case, would it just be ugly looking because he did not lift his left foot prior to starting the dribble?
I have no argument at all with what you are saying. I've just looked at the replay about 10-15 times and it's still not definitive either way to me.

My problem is with what Lurker described and saying it's not a travel.

He may be the coach of one of the teams I had last week. I knew it was going to be a long game when he called his "set" play. It was called: Circle The Wagons. ISUN!

Also, are we sure it wasn't a 10 sec back court?:p

Hey - at least it wasn't called "Circle The Biebers"!

WOW! some of you guys might want to consider decaf. :)

Let me translate circling the wagons in this case.

The ref makes a bad call. He apologizes it was a bad call. And yet people here are talking like parents in the stands. "what about the travel? he traveled! Hey ref, look for the travel!" Although in this case, instead of admitting fault of a fellow ref and moving on, the finger pointing at the travel is to "circle the wagons"

In my view, with this sort of thing, it is better to take an impartial view.

BTW, wrong time of the month for some of yall? Full moon maybe?

Except what we do as officials is break down plays and judge whether the correct rule was applied and whether it was accurate. Yes there was an incorrect backcourt violation call. There was also a travel that would have occured. It's not an indictment on the official or his abilities. If we can't do that, then forget any of us getting any better from learning from the mistakes of others.

You might consider reading Fun with Dick and Jane. NOBODY has said anything but it was a bad call on the backcourt ruling.

On behalf of all of us, piss off until March 2012, fanboy. If you can't understand the answers you're given, you don't belong here.

No, we just abhor morons who point fingers yet don't even know what constitutes a travel.

We knew he made a bad call within a minute after the play occurred. You're kinda slow. Maybe that's why we moved on to discussing whether or not there was a travel and you're still sitting in the stands showing us why you are not an official and never will be.

Still waiting for you to explain how catching the ball in the air and then landing on your right foot doesn't make your right foot the pivot. :rolleyes: Let us know when you'll admit that mistake instead of circling your wagon or whatever it is you do when sitting alone in front of a computer.

I am very late to this discussion and I know you are a dumbazz. The only thing I cared about was this a travel. It was obvious the BC violation was not right.

Right foot lands on division line (establishing pivot foot); left foot lands in front court; right if lifted off of division line and placed completely in front court (travelling).
Technically, that isn't correct.

The right foot doesn't actually become the pivot foot until the left foot touches in a a step.....that is the nuance in the rule that allows for the jump stop. A player landing on one foot can either establish a pivot foot by stepping with the other foot or they may execute a jumpstop and not have a pivot foot at all.

If one wants to find an uncalled travel in this tournament, he will have no trouble doing so, in pretty much every game.

If one wants to find an uncalled travel in ANY basketball game, he will not have trouble doing so, at any level.

This may be true, but in NCAAM now there are so many that are so obvious, that I can't help but believe this is done by design in certain situation.

Scoring plays, perhaps? Tonight Plumlee for Duke, not the most deceptively nimble guy on the floor, caught the ball on the left side of the rim, took a big step across to the right side on his right foot, followed by the left. Then went up flat footed off 2 feet and dunked. No call.

This was one like my son used to call in front of the tv...........when he was about 8 years old.
