I didn't say I needed slow motion to see it. Frankly, it looks clear to me from the camera angle that he catches it with his right foot down, then lefts and replants that right foot. No question it's a travel.

Again, not sure I'd see this on the floor, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a travel. It just means I might have missed it.

Our final analysis was that if we have to think that hard to figure out if it is or isn't a violation, then we stick with not calling it until it calls itself.

I feel if I cannot regurgitate the exact thing that happened, I did not see the play adequately In other words I better be able to tell them the left foot was the pivot foot and that foot was lifted and put back down to the floor. Saying, "He traveled" is not enough for me.

It might be a technical travel, but I think it was in question as to when he actually controlled the ball in this play. It might have been a travel, but I do not think it was obvious either.

While I could argue that he may have traveled, I would not call it.

Especially at game speed, I can't tell for sure which foot was which when he gained control of the ball.
