That's a travel, but is rarely called.

I hear what you are saying. As I said, some folks just don't see travel well…and frankly, some folks don't think it is an important call. When you also see NCAA say give benefit of the doubt to dribbler people lay off. I can tell you this..it doesn't help the game for me to be the only one calling travel. right, wrong etc I have to lay off at times. If team A does it in front of you and you have nothing and team B does it in front of me and I call travel it's a problem.
