    I don't see it. Are you talking about at the beginning of the clip, in the middle (as he's going across the lane), or at the end just before he lays it in?

    I don't think there's a limit to how many steps you can take as long as you keep the dribble alive and don't carry.

    ghettocheeze is claiming Paul takes 3-4 steps without dribbling the ball somewhere in the clip. I've watched it over 10 times, and I don't see it.

    And that's correct. I've seen playing on a fast break bounce the ball well ahead and take 4-5 steps before coming into contact with it again. That's not traveling if the ball isn't in the hands.

    It is actually inconclusive by that gif clip. It switches angle right at the time when the move in question happens. You can't tell how much has been missed by the video in the switch.

    I remember there was a clip on LeBron's dunk from the ft line. Same kind of angle switching right when he picked up the ball. Can't really count how many steps he took.
