    And just like Hakeem, it should have been called a travel. :p

    * ducks under cover *

    Edit: Ok, maybe not. I guess the NBA allows that little half step while picking up the ball.

    I thought he was just gonna grap Yao like Dwight Howard did to him during the all star game so he wouldn't be posterized.

    This was beautiful though, brings back old memories of Shaq being dominated by the Dream in 95. :cool:

    When I saw it, I thought he traveled. Hard to keep that pivot foot planted when you reverse direction but I have seen worse examples of no-calls.

    Yao should do that move more. It's just beautiful.

    I agree. Good move, but not the DREAM shake

    His pivot foot (left foot) stayed planted until he jumped in the air to shoot the shot. Not a travel.

    It was like the play that keeps getting replayed on the Spurs Rockets 95 playoff series whenever they show it. Between Hakeem and Robinson. I dont think it has a name, besides dominating.

    It was a baby shake. Hubie Brown called it a Dream Shake so it's at least close.
