Serious question for NBA fans?

What constitutes walking/traveling in the NBA nowadays? Just saw a promo commercial about game 5, they show a superstar driving to the bucket and take every bit of three full steps before laying it up.

Superstars don't get called for traveling

NBA refs typically let guys get away with an extra step driving through traffic, but every slow-mo clip of a dribble drive looks like a travel regardless. it's hard to tell when they actually pick up the dribble and start the 2 steps.

Well I knew about the two steps, but as a stated this said superstar took three. I even told my 10 year old to back the DVR and we watched in slo-motion. Just checking to see if any rules had changed.

Basically. They're allowed to take a step while gathering and then the two steps.
I just wish people would stop complaining about it since the NBA rule for travelling has been changed and is different from other leagues. It's not a travel, if the rules allow it.
