<< For those who watch NBA ball a lot on TV, do they normally not call travels? (esp. steps before dribbling and 3 steps on layups) Ben Wallace got away with an absolutely awful travel before. >>
Stars have been allowed an extra step (or 2 if you are a really big star like Shaq, Kobe or Jordan) for a long time. Supposedly the refs were going to crack down on it this year and they kind of did during the pre-season. Hadn't really noticed since then.
