The video explains it all: it's a travel.

Not so sure. Looks like the left foot is the pivot foot after the catch, and it looks like a legal catch and shoot. But I can be convinced otherwise.

Hard for me to tell for sure, but it looks to me like her right is the pivot. No jump stop, just steps after the pivot, including one with her pivot foot.

I would like to think that I would not call this a travel. I had to press pause button to determine for sure if she gathered ball with right foot on and it still was difficult to tell. She "cupped the ball with right arm and appeared to hold it against her chest , but let hand was not on ball" I think you always err on the side if your are not 100% sure then "no air in whistle". It did look funny but I try not to blow whistle on "funny".

Cupping the ball is all that's necessary. You let her get away with the travel and you have to call the foul.

Slowed down the play:



I think it's close, but I would have said the player gathered the ball with her right foot on the floor thus making the play a travel.

Please tell me this is a walk...



from reading the comments on the video you can see where a lot of misperceptions come from; one of the comments says something like "that move is on NBA2K12, it must be legal".

In slow motion, yes that's a travel.

Am I going to pick a nit that closely? Nope...in real time, that would be close enough to simultaneous to me. I also wouldn't allow the player to pivot afterward.

Agree with APG. In real time I probably have nothing.

You think that would be picky? That move is one of my pet peeves, that's the "crab dribble" that LaBron is so fond of. Although this one is not as pronounced as some I've seen. Granted that first angle it is tough because there are some other legs in the way, but from L I would hope I would have a good look at the little gallop he gets in there. As long as we agree this is technically a travel I'm happy.

Another agree (with APG and Welpe)....slow-mo, it is a travel. Live speed, probably too close to call.
