By rule and without exception, the ball is dead once a player travels.

They don't get to travel just because they were fouled. Otherwise, we'd have to let players who get fouled when they go up also land and go back up to complete the shot. This is no different. If you did excuse the travel, how many steps? 3? 4? 10? And how do you know how many? What rule would apply?

Agree. I couldn't have said it better myself. In fact, I think that I'll go ahead and say it anyway.

I don't clearly see a travel here. I'm counting the basket and no one will think twice about it.

Same here. I see a guy pushed and throwing the ball up. And I am counting the basket and not thinking twice either. And that is judgment, not just a rule that applies.

Peace

Agreed with all -- IF it was a travel, then no basket shoot 2. But, I don't see it as a travel (but it looks ugly and is a long step and almost another before the ball is released)

I can't say for sure whether there was a travel or not....so I'm not calling one.

I agree. Not a clear travel, so I am counting it. I had right foot as pivot, step with left, then right almost comes back down before he releases.

Words that should be "tattooed" in the brains of all officials.

(I know that he didn't say this, but it sure sounds like he would have said something like this.)
