Not being sarcastic, but I thought you got one step after you stopped dribbling? Have they extended those? Both of these teams look like they're running down the court with a football when they go to the hole.

Didn't know if I missed a rule change...

As many steps as Okafor from Duke wants to take... Not to mention he camps in the lane at about 5-6 seconds every possession....


The refs do this.............

I think usually players get 2 1/2. The 1/2 step is when the player picks up the ball, and then two steps after that.

God, I hope Duke wins the national championship on a controversial call so we can finally have you die off

They never call traveling or three seconds. If they did more disruption of play.

Hands down the #1 reason my basketball viewing has declined over the years.

Traveling is never called and it's absurd.

That and it takes 35 minutes to finish a game with 4 seconds left. Along with the 17 timeouts teams are given.

Can't stand that's shite anymore.

You just watch more closely because it's Duke and you want to find bad calls. Natural for anyone who dislikes a player or team

If you execute a one foot jump stop, some people think it looks like traveling.

The rule has not changed. The athletes are better at footwork.

Still sometimes, ref will miss a call.

Three steps while driving the lane = no traveling

A slight shuffle of the pivot foot when startimg your drive = traveling every time

You also have to consider that Peej sees 2-3 people when he's actually looking at one, so naturally when a basketball player takes 2-3 steps he sees 3 times that.

That dude for Kentucky just caught a pass at the 3 point line and dunked without a single dribble.
