you're totally right, this is a great insight. The reason we're disagreeing
is definitely because I haven't ever played basketball before. Such an intelligent comment.

Footwork so good nobody noticed the travel

what travel?
runnincoug
May 15, 8:34am
He uses his right foot as pivot foot, then switches to left foot for pivot.
SoValleyCOUG
May 15, 10:34am
He never switches pivots...definitely not a clear travel haha
chilawcoug
May 15, 10:37am
4 sec mark, he uses right foot to pivot. 5 sec mark he's using left foot. Travel
SoValleyCOUG
May 15, 10:41am
Right foot is always the pivot foot. He raises his pivot (allowed) and shoots
RGGeemer
May 15, 10:42am
He lifts his right foot, plants his left (3rd step) and THEN shoots. Travelling.
SoValleyCOUG
May 15, 11:04am
3rd step? What does that even mean? That's not the rule.
RGGeemer
May 15, 11:06am
You're allowed 2 steps once you stop your dribble. More than that is a travel.
SoValleyCOUG
May 15, 11:32am
That's not the rule. The rule only talks about the pivot foot. Once the pivot
RGGeemer

Yes that is legal.
chilawcoug

Only if you've NOT already taken 2 steps.

Incorrect.
RGGeemer

so 3, 4, 5 6, steps is ok....got it! No reason to dribble anymore!

If you haven't lifted your pivot foot, yes. After, you get one step with the

It has nothing to do with the number of steps. It just has to do with the pivot
RGGeemer
May 15, 12:48pm
He never uses his left foot *TO PIVOT.* Just because only his left foot is on

You can only change your pivot foot if it's your 2nd step! According to you, a

The confusion here is you probably aren't aware that you can pick up your pivot
TheMediator

There’s no travel?
RealTaysomHill

Footwork so good you assume he must've traveled when he didn't.
cougfanblue
May 15, 8:36am
No travel.
LifeLongLakerFan

You can lift pivot to shoot or pass. Which he did. No travel.
CSoul
May 15, 8:38am
You can change to shoot or pass
whoneedscorners?
May 15, 8:40am
That's not a travel. Textbook footwork off a pivot foot from what I'm seeing
runnincoug
May 15, 8:44am
He rotated off of both feet.
whoneedscorners?
May 15, 8:48am
You're making things up. The rule simply says:
cougfanblue

I’m not making things up
whoneedscorners?
May 15, 9:06am
What you're making up is that you think you have to know the original "purpose" for lifting the pivot foot.
cougfanblue
May 15, 9:11am
It looks like in the original that he drags it
whoneedscorners?
May 15, 10:05am
Drags his pivot foot? I don’t see that at all.
cougfanblue

You are way too invested

you're ignoring the other rules regarding travel. By your silly argument
Digital Gangsta
May 15, 9:14am
How is that applicable here?
cougfanblue
May 15, 9:19am
because you're pretending that ONE rule covers all instances of traveling
Digital Gangsta
May 15, 9:25am
I never said anything of the sort. I cited the applicable rule to this specific scenario.
cougfanblue
May 15, 9:27am
It's really quite simple, you can't pivot on one foot, then pick that foot up
Digital Gangsta
May 15, 9:27am
The travel happens if you then put the pivot foot back down.
cougfanblue
May 15, 9:34am
nope, that's incredibly silly, you can't lift pivot and take a step w/ other ft
Digital Gangsta
May 15, 9:36am
Why would you not be able to take a step with your non-pivot foot? Again, please paste the rule you're referring to.

i guess that's according to the rulebook of your own mind, not the rulebook that

He didn't change...he lifted up his pivot but never changed.
chilawcoug

He lifted his pivot and took a step with the other leg!
Digital Gangsta

Taking a step doesn’t mean that foot becomes your pivot….

What do you mean takes another step after he pivots?
chilawcoug
May 15, 9:38am
You’re the one who’s wrong. Moving your non pivot foot does not count as a step
PHXSUNS31
May 15, 9:51am
It’s a very normal basketball move that’s squarely within the rules.
cougfanblue
May 15, 10:07am
True. He uses his right leg as the pivot foot, then switches to the left.
SoValleyCOUG
May 15, 10:33am
He never uses his left foot at a pivot foot. He jumps off of it. That doesn't
chilawcoug
May 15, 10:38am
No he does not switch his pivot foot.
cougfanblue
May 15, 10:39am
He lifts his pivot foot (right), plants the left foot, then shoots. Travelling.
SoValleyCOUG
May 15, 11:06am
Again, I pasted the rule above - it's not a travel unless he returns his raised pivot foot to the floor.
cougfanblue
May 15, 11:08am
A player is allowed 2 steps. If his pivot foot is the 2nd step, you can't switch
SoValleyCOUG
May 15, 11:35am
Your pivot foot is NOT the second step.

I stop dribbling. Take a step with left foot, then a step with my right

May 15, 11:51am
That’s actually a travel. First foot after picking up dribble is pivot and you

May 15, 12:00pm
I don’t believe anywhere in the rules a travel is defined by

Wrong. Your pivot foot is established once you stop dribbling and your left

Careful there bud, NBA fans get a little touchy when someone calls 3 steps a travel.

Jokic didn’t do either of those things though. He established his left foot as his pivot foot. He didn’t raise the pivot
RealTaysomHill
May 15, 9:25am
Yes, he absolutely DID raise his pivot foot. He pivoted on his right foot, then
Digital Gangsta
May 15, 9:34am
You can raise it to shoot! Players have been doing that at every level since

Okay, but he didn't change pivots. Do you mean when he changed his plant foot?

No you said it is 3 steps and so only legal under the NBA rulebook.
