I am not a huge fan of the NBA, but I do watch games from time to time and see things are not always what is written or talked about.

THank you. People will believe what it is they want to believe. The common and misinformed opinion is that NBA officials are terrible. Watch an NBA game with NBA rule knowledge and you'll come away with more respect for those officials. They do have a 97-98% accuracy rate. And in the NBA, the key word in determining what is and what is not a travel often times is the word "gather". What that really means can be open to interpretation, but they have to gather the ball. Travelling, palming and even double dribbling are called in the NBA (which I attend 22 games).
