some people fail to understand what a pivot foot does, you are allowed to pivot with the heel and toe, alternatively but are not allowed to lift the pivot foot, doing so would be a travel. in this case, wade pivots his foot before making the 1,2 step
he actually does lift that pivot foot off the ground, but unless you have built in slow motion replay in your head, your never going to pick that, can't blame the ref for not calling that one
The "establishes pivot foot" should be at "step one". He stops his dribble while he is spinning from "establishes pivot foot" to "step one". So it's not a travel.
thats right...his pivot foot is already grounded before he gathers the ball off the dribble, therefore he is allowed to take two steps after that which he does. NOT A TRAVEL IDIOTS!!!
I hate the heat. But this was too close to call a blatant travel. The refs most likely figured he took one step followed by a jump stop, which is legal. The time between the landing of his "2nd" and "3rd" steps was too small to be incredibly noticeable.
yea whover put this up is stupid. You can spin while dribbling. His left hand was on top of the ball keeping it moving. If he grabbed the ball with both hands while he did that spin, then you'd be right. But you're not hahaha. So this vid was really a waste of time. Thanks for showin how much you know about this :)
not a travel you fag. his pivot foot didn't lift. it looks like it. but he just spun and the front of that pivot foot lifted, but his heel was grounded
it's not a travel...he dribbled then spun...if he didn't dribble and took a step the spun then he traveled...but he took a good dribble right b4 he spun...
*He also travels when he makes his first move. He moves his left foot (pivot) before he starts his dribble. They call Leandro Barbosa on this all the time b/c it is a travel.
*There's no pivot foot when you're taking 2 steps. The first step is the one after you pick up the dribble. He clearly takes 3 steps, which is illegal in the NBA unless you're Lebron, Kobe, or Wade.
*He doesn't spin on a pivot foot. That left foot comes up and moves which makes it a first step.
wade does travel alot but i think this move is ok. Since he dribbled on the so called "first step" in the video it doesnt actually count as a step (not sure if this explanation makes sense lol)
Not a travel. He is still technically dribbling during his spin move and doesnt establish the pivot foot until the "first step" in this video.. duhhh naggers
your totally right. But can you please put something useful on youtube? its supposed to be entertaining, not blamming. He'll get caught soon enough, just do something better
not to say that wade doesnt travel alot but that was deinitely not a travel. all i see is a 2 and a half step layup but while spinning. his first step is actually a half step because he is picking up the ball. he IS NOT ESTABLISHING A PIVOT FOOT. the subsequent two step spin is perfectly legal into his layup. think of a wide open fast break layup. the player will pick the ball up on a dribble(the half step) then take two steps and lay it in. exactly the same as wade but wade puts in a spin
No. That is a travel. He is NOT supposed to move his pivot foot in the process, which he did (he hopped a bit towards the basket.) Had he not moved it, it would not be a travel. Unfortunately, with all the fast tempo going on in today's game, it's hard to find someone committing a travel violation.
Battlebst, learn how to spell before you call someone a dumbass, dumbass.
It's not a travel. how did he establish a pivot foot if he didn't stop moving?? He spins off then takes his two steps. Thats not a travel, it's just a smart move that you can't do.. look at it carefully. And study the rules.
Definitely a travel. YOU CANNOT MOVE YOUR PIVOT or else it counts as a step. He moved it. Since he's pretty quick the refs didn't catch it. In cases like this, the refs should do a replay and decide (like in this one where there might be suspicion of traveling and getting fouled.
but how the fuck do you expect them to see that especially when he picked up his pivot foot that just happened waaaaaay too fast plus if they didnt have good position so you really cant blame the ref on this one nor wad3 cause it looked like wad3 picked it up to keep his balance cause he was going too fast
Dont mean to be the bearer of bad news but..... That wasnt a travel. In the beginning where he jabs right and takes off left, ok maybe. The move after that, no.
RIght, so the numerous times that this play has occurred without a travel call are ALL mistakes. Man, you should be an official, because you're apparently an expert.
well you guys have to rember Lebron,wade,kobe they are superstars and who wants ther hero to get called for travel. and second all three of them are fast as hell so it kinda hard to tell.. you have to slow it down just to see it refs are just people give them a little slack people
Not a travel. why do all of you guys think that you can ref better than professional refs that do this for a living? First of all, when you said he established a pivot foot, that was wrong, he was still dribbling. Second of all, you are allowed a spin move or a hop-step. Third of all, even if that was a travel, which it wasn't, it would have been hard for the refs to see because it was in traffic.
Well you guys are just mad because you guys have lost to us in Christmas day two years in a row. And that makes Kobe's little pussy hurt like hell. Well if you study about travel then go and watch LeBron's crab dribble.
travel... he does it so fast it doesnt look it at all and if the refs called it, id be impressed. but yeah its a travel - basically he has moved 1 foot twice and the other foot once - travel.
When a player establishes a pivot foot after dribbling, he or she can't make that foot leave the floor and then return back on the floor. Therefore, there was traveling even before the three steps. Two travels.
true but to clear the point. it was two steps.... he steps with his right and jumps off both feet........ Lebron travels way more than wade though.... even in his highlights...... everytime he drives he travels..
lmao thats true, and i have a friend who is a lebron fan and he travels and walks everytime he goes in 4 a layup as well, and everytime i call him on it, he's always like "what? thats no travel, lebron does that all the time!" lmaooooo
Completely agree with KO8E89. This is not to hate. And the Youtube age has definitely given the luxury of spotting lightning fast plays like this as some proof of "ref incompetency". The truth of the matter is he travelled with some serious review of this footage. That pivot hopped. Travel right there.
Yeah, others have done it too. Hornacek, Lebron, etc. However, there is a lot of evidence that Wade does this regularly when he spins. Sad, but true.
Damn, buddy. Completely lost what I said. Of course you can't move your freakin' pivot. It was a response to another post that questioned that "step one". Where the hell did I say it WASN'T a travel?! You are perhaps the biggest dumbass on here, srekal3224!
why all u guys keep lookin at other players mistake.. even michael jordan travels.. even kobe or any players on NBA, they're not as perfect as u haters.. atleast they play on NBA. how bout u? wer do u play? im not as famous as dem but atleast im humble and not a hater. peace, for any violent reactions just reply to me i know ul be guilty of what im tryin to say here.
The ONLY way this play could have been legal is if he had kept that pivot foot PLANTED. Only way. And I'm sure that was Wade's intent. But that pivot moves, skips, hops, whatever you call it. This really shouldn't be in dispute. Don't care about the hop or take-off counting as one or two steps as I've seen several others have commented. He shuffled that pivot. Already in violation by the time he did that.
there could be three steps yeah... but you should see that, when he stablished the pivot food, he was pushed out by Odom... so it waould have been a foul anyway. And i think that you would prefer mantain Lamar in the floor no?
it is a travel, because after he sets his pivot foot, he then shuffles that same foot AFTER he has picked up the ball, then proceedes to take 2 more steps equaling 3 steps total after he has picked up his dribble and is therefore a travel..
don't know what you guys were all taught..? but taking 3 steps after picking up the ball is a travel, unless you jump with both feet which is considered one step..
the nba does that a lot we all no this if u really wanna be a jackass about it stop watchin the damn telly nd its only 3 steps if it were more easily recognizable like 5 steps or somthin write a letter to the damn nba. the refs do not go back frame by frame and review evry single play. while the game is going on anyway
well tough call... he did not grab the ball with both hands at the first 'pivot foot' spinning shown in the vid .... Usually nba ref's don't call this a travel...
In this case he takes that little hop with his pivot foot but this is one the less sever cases of travelling I've seen. As a ref I probably wouldn't call this
It's not a travel because he does not have to establish a pivot foot on the spin dribble. He has the option of taking two steps after the spin dribble and shooting OR coming to a jump stop after the spin dribble and shooting (or passing). Where the NBA messes up is on allowing those loose jump stops where the player can take two steps after the jump stop.
whatever the refs didn't call it, players get away with stuff all the time, if the refs don't call it then tough. the game is too fast to always use instant replay. if the refs call the game a certain way, the great players will adjust, the crappy players complain
lol, steps count the same even if you don't pick the ball with both hands, 3 steps is a travel, and if you don't bounce the ball before taking the 3rd step, WHISTLE
seriously you people need to get a life. are you really spending all of your time looking for little details like traveling? at normal speed you cant tell. if you dont see it its not traveling. it really isnt traveling anyways.
its a legal move if he didn't leave the air, so it is a travel, but he he hadn't had a little hop on the first step it would still have been a pivot, and the reason he hopped was because he got pushed, it was a good call
thats a travel dude ...the pivot foot is not the concern here. u r only allowed two steps after u pick up the ball. wade took 3 stes after picking up the ball. travel
Many people get away from travel and fouls, it's part of the game... No doubt I feel NBA refs do favor stars as well as we keep picking on stars (get away from fouls/violations)
ummmm......theres no sound, what if the wistle blew before he made those steps? ever thought of that? there was a foul called so it doesn't even matter if he did travel.
its pivot you idiot.

Exactly, there is no 3rd step. He traveled in the beginning moving his pivot foot.
So in the end video poster had lucky point calling it travel but as we can see he had no idea why.
n305 2 years ago
The travel wasn't on the third step, he jumped off two feet.
The travel came right at the beginning when he slid his pivot foot about 12in.
When you watch it in real time there's almost no way to catch that, especially when all the refs are watching higher up, looking for a foul.
The real BS calls with Wade are all the magical touch fouls--see the 06 finals.

This really shouldn't be in dispute. Don't care about the hop or take-off counting as one or two steps as I've seen several others have commented. He shuffled that pivot. Already in violation by the time he did that.

Moving pivot. Easy. Travel. But it REALLY isn't that easy since the whole play takes a blinding second. Easy to miss without slow mo.
SiWon719 2 years ago
there could be three steps yeah... but you should see that, when he stablished the pivot food, he was pushed out by Odom... so it waould have been a foul anyway. And i think that you would prefer mantain Lamar in the floor no?
(sorry for my english if i made a mistake)

it is a travel, because after he sets his pivot foot, he then shuffles that same foot AFTER he has picked up the ball, then proceedes to take 2 more steps equaling 3 steps total after he has picked up his dribble and is therefore a travel..
don't know what you guys were all taught..? but taking 3 steps after picking up the ball is a travel, unless you jump with both feet which is considered one step..

the ''third step'' is just a leap with both legs

That's not a travel. The first step that was labeled was already on the ground it wasn't a step.

1st off the refs would never see that it happened WAAAY to damn fast
2nd it wasnt even a travel when you said he established pivot foot the ball wasnt completely in his grasp it was still going into his hands
scrubbabubba 2 years ago
the nba does that a lot we all no this if u really wanna be a jackass about it stop watchin the damn telly nd its only 3 steps if it were more easily recognizable like 5 steps or somthin write a letter to the damn nba. the refs do not go back frame by frame and review evry single play. while the game is going on anyway

well tough call... he did not grab the ball with both hands at the first 'pivot foot' spinning shown in the vid .... Usually nba ref's don't call this a travel...
autumnwind999 2 years ago
In this case he takes that little hop with his pivot foot but this is one the less sever cases of travelling I've seen. As a ref I probably wouldn't call this

it is clearly a travel without question
ImBkPeeps23 2 years ago 3
It's not a travel because he does not have to establish a pivot foot on the spin dribble. He has the option of taking two steps after the spin dribble and shooting OR coming to a jump stop after the spin dribble and shooting (or passing). Where the NBA messes up is on allowing those loose jump stops where the player can take two steps after the jump stop.

whatever the refs didn't call it, players get away with stuff all the time, if the refs don't call it then tough. the game is too fast to always use instant replay. if the refs call the game a certain way, the great players will adjust, the crappy players complain

The rule is simple, once your pivot foot leaves the ground, you must pass or shoot before it returns to the floor.
marcelobesch 2 years ago
not if its a hopstep... or if someone is wrestling for the ball when u jump

i wonder if you had the balls to say that to me in real life, but anyways, it's a travel no matter what you say, he takes 3 steps, no more no less
RemusN7 2 years ago
even if it were you are allowed to take 3 steps only if you shoot or pass on the 3 one...
MistahBatchar 2 years ago
lol, steps count the same even if you don't pick the ball with both hands, 3 steps is a travel, and if you don't bounce the ball before taking the 3rd step, WHISTLE

not a travel 2 5 steps is legal
GoCavs22 2 years ago 2
its a legal move if he didn't leave the air, so it is a travel, but he he hadn't had a little hop on the first step it would still have been a pivot, and the reason he hopped was because he got pushed, it was a good call
elowenman 2 years ago
It's not really clear if he had picked up the ball or not when you say he established his pivot foot.

shamik1972 2 years ago
thats a travel dude ...the pivot foot is not the concern here. u r only allowed two steps after u pick up the ball. wade took 3 stes after picking up the ball. travel

First, it did travel, but after foul...
Many people get away from travel and fouls, it's part of the game... No doubt I feel NBA refs do favor stars as well as we keep picking on stars (get away from fouls/violations)
ric0324 2 years ago
ummmm......theres no sound, what if the wistle blew before he made those steps? ever thought of that? there was a foul called so it doesn't even matter if he did travel.
