Travel, No Basket ...

Some of us, but not all of us, also do this here in my little corner of the Land of Steady Habits. Those of us who do it, and I'm occasionally guilty of this, will most often do it when a player drives to the basket, travels, and the ball goes in the basket. We know that it's not the correct mechanic, but we still do it. Go figure?

Me, too. Especially when he blows by someone with a quick first step travel or my partner may have a foul but I have the travel first.

I'll do it in these situations as well.

I don't triple up on all travels, but when I do....

It's sort of hard to explain. Did you play a wind instrument in the school band? Same concept as using your tongue to separate the notes.

i used t play sax, still do occasionally, and stiffler's correct, its all tongue action. also prevents inadvertents.

not too much nfo. read the op.

Trombone here....start AND stop the airflow with the tough. It will sound MUCH better.

I never played a musical instrument but that I what I've learned to do and it produces a nice, confident tone.

Not familiar with that body part. Then again, I'm not a doctor. Neither do I play one one TV.
