It’s definitely traveling and shouldn’t be allowed. It looks wrong. The step back and the euro step are blatant violations and I think they’ve upset the integrity of the game. I blame Harden. He basically started this shit. Now all of the sheep are doing it. I sometimes have counted 4 steps on Giannis’ euro step. He stops dribbling at half court and just takes those long loping steps. I hate it. Would be called traveling every time before 2010. Somehow, rules have changed…even though they haven’t. I go by the book. I know what a gather step is and what not. His step back was fine. My problem with that Wembanyama play was what he did from when he caught the ball to take the only dribble he took. I see guys catch the ball and shot fake and go to drive and get called for travels taking 1 step all of the time. Then I watch him take like 4 steps before he puts the ball down at all and no travel. It seemed obvious in real time and on replay to me. And I thought they are more strict with travel calls before you dribble the ball vs after you finish your dribble but I guess not AD carries the ball every time he backs a player down. I don’t hear you calling that out Mr By the Book.
