I couldn't find any video, but he definitely was set, both feet planted, then stepped with his right, then his left, and shot with both feet planted. Why is that not a travel?

Because it's the NBE and they just don't call that stuff.

Mr. Plywood - welcome to the club !!!!!!!

Assuming that you are right (I remember the play, but am not sure about it being a travel), JKidd doesn't really gain an AD, as he doesn't go past / beat / gain an advantage, whatever you want to say as he sets his feet to shoot the ball....

Just IMO .......


BTW - As a first time poster you got J Rut and Padg to reply to your post, take the time to absorb over 20, 000 posts of knowledge !!!!!!!!!!

I vaguely remember the play but don't remember if there was a travel or not. If it happened as you say, it would be a travel. This isn't a reviewable matter either.

Could have simply been a missed call. Happens all the time at all levels.

Yes, he traveled.

No, they're not going to make that call in the NBA.

Yes, I've called it and will again.

None of that is relevant. If it's big enough to see, you call it. If you need 7 replays to see it, you don't call it regardless of the magnitude of the game.

So, I'm a liar, eh?

I really don't care what you believe.

Kidd squared up. The defender ran out at him, jumped, and forced him to change his shot. He stepped with both feet, took and made the shot, there by gaining an advantage by traveling.

Yes, I've called it and will again.

John Adams would disagree

OK so maybe the pro game you can get away with a no-call, but this is exactly the opposite of what John Adams has been preaching. Look at the end of the But / Pitt game. You could argue that the foul call was cheap because the foul occured with little time. Why are you refereeing a state championship game any differently. If this is a travel and you don't call it, then that is regarded as a missed call.......
