Travel (Pivot foot) or nothing?

I wouldn't have been thrilled afterwards to discover it was a travel but better to call what I know as opposed to what I think.

See to me, I have the player gathering the ball/possession while in midair...opposite of what Nevada judged. Either way, I wouldn't be putting air in the whistle on this play.

Most definitely! I looked at this play over & over trying to see what travel supporters see as illegal.

I guess some of us look for a reason to blow our whistles & interrupt games by erasing highlight plays

Is that sort of disparagement necessary?

Snaqs, you did say you had nothing on this play, didnt ya?
Theres only 1 person that says this is a travel & the intended party knows that shot was for him. And yes, its very necessary return fire when fired upon.

Actually, if I had to guess one way or the other based on the definitions, I'd guess he traveled. I wouldn't call it, though, because it's way to close to know for sure.

Thats what I gathered from your first post & the reason why the "comment" wasnt directed towards you.

Some also look for excuses to not make a call when it is there.

True story you & I just disagree that "it is there" on this particular play.
I got a gather with no feet on the floor at :12
Great no-call!

Those that have a travel on the play have judged possession to have occurred earlier than those that have nothing. Me personally, I wouldn't judge possession so quickly or instantaneously (which was JRut's point of posting the play).
