I was working a first round regional game last Tuesday and called two obvious spin move travels on the first 5 or so possessions down the floor. The coach told me that hadn't been called all year. I told him exactly what had happened -- pivot foot lifted and replaced after the gather/end of dribble. His comment, "Oh, I'm sure you're right, but nobody calls that!"

In play one, the contact by defender occurs first. It probably causes the travel.

What about a possible travel in play #2? It's close, imo.
