Why is this travel?

how do you determine the ball came to a rest? it looks like a normal dribble just that Mike did quick steps under the normal dribble time frame that he achieved 5 steps.

alright let's just assume jordan is palming, so if he weren't palming and took the 5 steps, can he follow up with a layup before the ball bounces on the floor, like take off after the 5th step? I though step through only allows an extra step after lifting the pivot foot.

What is a normal dribble time frame? Come to rest is the wording of the rule telling when a dribble ends. The ball was in contact with the hand too long.
There is no specific amount of time, but the violation is obvious in the video.
If the call went against Jordan, you can believe it was real.

so if he weren't palming and it was a legal dribble and after he took the 5 steps, can he follow up with a layup/dunk before the next dribble, like take off after the 5th step?

If it was a legal dribble, he could take as many steps as he wanted.

and still go for a dunk/layup without another dribble? so say Jordan took 5 steps on his last dribble decide to go for the dunk when does his dribble end?

The dribble ends when the ball is touched with both hands simultaneously or comes to rest in one or both hands. At this point, refer to the pivot foot restrictions.

It's hard to imagine someone is able to take 7 steps with the ball on his hand before doing a layup or dunk.

In this case if Jordan was quicker with his feet and wasn't palming, he would do 5 steps in a dribble motion, decides to pick up the ball immediately and does a step through which means he took 7 steps with the ball on his hand (5 while dribbling 2 while holding).

Is there a video that shows similar moves?
