POLL: Traveling: having established a pivot foot, when you lift that pivot foot you can do which of the following without traveling ?

PJMort

4/16/18 2:15pm

have you taken any dribbled before that? or did you catch the ball, and now you

coltonbyu

Either of those.

PJMort

4/16/18 2:21pm

those are different scenarios though. From what I understand reading the rules

coltonbyu

The poll was meant to be “after” you lift the pivot foot.

yeah, which implies that you can legally dribble out of a pivot

coltonbyu

4/16/18 2:36pm

Yep. One of Larry Bird's best move came from that. Jab step

Once your pivot foot is established it can only come up if

I think your can jump off your pivot foot of both feet return to the ground at t

This is correct. Rule XIII(b)

PJMort

This is incorrect. The pivot foot can come up with the other foot still on the

You're right. I think my error was in using the word simultaneously. Once your pivot foot comes up and your non-pivot

I’ve wondered that hat too.

BYUCLA

4/16/18 3:12pm

Yeah, the up and under is the move I was missing originally. It's okay as long as you do it in one continuous motion.

James Halpert

4/16/18 3:14pm

Is it in the rulebook that it has to be in one continuous motion?

BYUCLA

4/16/18 5:11pm

Dirk Nowitzke made a living off that

PJMort

To many refs call the step through traveling just because it looked different.

PJMort

4/16/18 4:03pm

And one last question.

BYUCLA

4/16/18 5:26pm

Yes, this is just a variation on the euro-step. BUT, you'll probably get called

PJMort

Interestingly, the college rule book does NOT cover all the rules.

Here is NBA rule XIII(d). 😂

I'm pretty sure you're missing the option of a second dribble if you're moving

Well he definitely touched the ball with both hands while dribbling so double

That's what I'm trying to tell you. It's legal if you're moving away from your

Really? B-ball rules are a racket.

^I’ve gone the rounds with this guy before, and realized he knows his stuff.

Unless I’m wrong, is the majority missing the jab step?

"having established a pivot foot"

rggee

I’m missing your point

Hedonic Threadmill

4/16/18 3:01pm

rules disagree - once you have established a pivot foot, you cannot dribble

rggee

4/16/18 3:03pm

yes you can, as long as the ball leaves the hand before your pivot leaves the

coltonbyu

oh well then you are missing the 2nd part of the question: "when you lift that

im replying to you, not the OG comment. You said once established.

coltonbyu

4/16/18 3:19pm

yes you can dribble before lifting your pivot foot

I did miss the lifted portion
