I call those illegal spin moves travels more than most officials I work with, but I still miss them sometimes. I work both HS and college schedules. So are we going to blame D1 officials for me missing it when I do?

No matter who you are, if you missed this play, I blame you. This is easy to see from any angle, from any distance. I knew he was going to travel before he traveled. Somebody find me a couple of spin moves by a player attacking the basket where a travel is correctly called and I'll drop the assertion that they are being deliberately ignored........maybe.

Does this include HS games where they are missed regularly, but are not replayed on ESPN?

Yes, it does. Why wouldn't it? At any level, there is no excuse for the travel in the OP to be missed. Do you disagree with that?

I believe it was my BV assignor who told us a few years ago that it's extremely difficult for players to do a spin move like this one legally, especially in HS. That doesn't mean I call travels on all of them but at least the antenna are up whenever I see one.

Why not? Can you think of a better scapegoat?
