Advantage Disadvantage ...
Disagree.
THE INTENT AND PURPOSE OF THE RULES It is important to know the intent and purpose of a rule so that it may be intelligently applied in each play situation. A player or a team should not be permitted an advantage which is not intended by a rule. Neither should play be permitted to develop which may lead to placing a player at a disadvantage not intended by a rule. Quote:
Ten seconds to shoot a free throw. Others have pointed to inbounder with foot a half-inch over the boundary on a backcourt throwin with no defensive pressure, or a slight "carry" in the backcourt with no defensive pressure; but do not include me as a proponent of the last two. 9.2.5 SITUATION A: Thrower A1 inadvertently steps onto the court inbounds. A1 immediately steps back into normal out-of-bounds throw-in position. The contact with the court was during a situation: (a) with; or (b) without defensive pressure on the throw-in team. RULING: A violation in both (a) and (b). COMMENT: Whether or not there was defensive pressure or whether or not stepping on the court was inadvertent, it is a violation and no judgment is required in making the call.

If a player steps out of bounds with the ball I'm calling it.
If a player off the ball has a foot in the lane and I've got other things to worry about and nothing is happening or impacting the play then no. BUT if its happening all the time and clearly allowing player/players to have better position to run offense, get deeper post ups later or get rebounding position . . . they are getting an advantage by me not calling the violation. So we're going to have lots of verbal warnings early in game so when I need to get you later in the game you aren't shocked. Traveling is a whole different animal. You've got possesion of the ball. The on ball defender and off ball defenders are making decisions based what you can and cannot do by rule with the ball. At high levels this includes which is your pivot foot, your court position and tendencies. Unless we are talking about an unguarded take off by the dribbler 90 feet from the rim with the defense 40 feet away . . . I feel like you've got to get those travels. The fact that he isn't "doing" anything does not mean its not impacting the game. How defense aligns or reacts, what passing angles or positions he gets all change. Soap Box Rant not specific to OP: Call the travels. Defenders don't have hand check or be as physical to defend the ball if players don't get an illegal take off. If teams and players have to spend time teaching and enforcing footwork rather then on ball screen defense, their 4th zone defense, or the 21st set play or counter. You'll get games with more flow and better basketball players eventually. If you want more skilled kids make kids and coaches need to make players with footwork and manipulative skills not live in the weight room and on defensive tactis/ball control offense. If you want the offense to get more steps change the rule (NBA) if not have the game called and taught the way the rules expect. Thank you for your time.

As if we need a reason to be annoyed by Jay Bilas.... Several years ago in the tournament there was defensive pressure in the last few seconds of a game, (I don't remember the teams) a bump caused the dribbler to step out of bounds, and a foul was called, which led to game winning free throws. Bilas made a big deal of it and said the contact and the OOB should have all been ignored. The other announcer double checked. "You're saying the official should ignore this whole sequence?" Bilas: "The good ones would." I don't object to Bilas as much as some here, but this one really got to me. But the other part is that I assume Bilas isn't the only one who feels this way. So, enlighten me. Is there anyone here, who ever, for any reason, would deliberately ignore a dribbler stepping on the sideline?

I was referring to "real games" but your answer speaks volumes. "We might not even allow that in Special Olympics, bless their little hearts."

There is the sublime, and there is the ridiculous. This play falls in the latter.

All in all, this is probably a great "Training Video" for novice NBA refs who are migrating from NFHS or NCAA into NBA or NBDL as it teaches them how to ingnore egregious travel violations---admittedly, it will take a long time for novice NBA refs to pass on making that call.
