That's not a travel..period.

That is a jump stop.

However, you want to talk about being a giant bitch and traveling a lot Lebron is the right guy

The star treatment is one of the reasons I can't really stomach watching the NBA. Also the "home cookin' " is so fucking obvious it makes the game unwatchable.

Bullshit. The jump stop occured BEFORE he went up for a second time.

Wrong. After his last dribble he took a step and from that step he jumped from the same foot to the jump stop. Not a travel end of story. I took a screen shot of it. You can see that is the step just split seconds after he "picked up his dribble". That leads right into the jump stop. During which he lands on both feet at the same time, not leading to it counting as multiple steps. Thus a clean jump stop during that play

JordanRules? Hasn't this gone on since Magic and Bird at least?

It's so bad that the Kings got screwed because either the NBA or the mob (perhaps both) insisted on having the Lake Show in the finals instead. The ref behind it all recently copped to it.

No it started with Robert "3-Step" Parrish.

Traveling in basketball is like holding in football. It is what it is. You could almost call it all game. That being said Lebron's footwork has always been bad. He's been getting away with that since high school.
