    watch how bad he travels.....watch from about 24 seconds into the video gives the best shot....

    Mike is the best and dunk was nice but did you guys know he traveled so bad on that dunk?....

    I'm sure there's a dribble in there that they cut out. No way a player gets away from driving all the way from half court with one dribble.

    He did travel. He just made 4 steps before the dunk. Look at 0:27.

    The Steve Francis one is a blatant travel...so im assuming julio is being sarcastic.
    Well thanks for the sarcasm lesson, I guess I'll have to pay you back with a lesson in basic basketball rules then.

    The reason why Jordans play wasn't a travelling violation is because he picked up the ball and then took two steps, not three. The step before the last two that he took, he had not picked up the ball yet so therefore he was still 'dribbling' it.
    Sure, he wasn't bouncing it and sure, he was touching the ball - but his hand wasn't under the ball and he wasn't cradling or palming the ball, therefore it was not a travel.

    There are a lot of these out there. But there is one of Jordan I cannot find where he takes 4 steps in between dribbles right in front of an official

    As long as he keeps his dribble alive, he can take as many steps in between each dribble as he wants.
