Giannis traveling like 75% of the time he touches the ball is gross though.

Dude leads the league in travel calls and still gets away with a ton lmao.

I suggest you do a little more research. They're as legit as can be, and the league has confirmed it.

Harden's step-back jumper is an exception to the traveling rule. This is due to a section in the NBA rulebook that deals with traveling. In the Rule 10, Section XIII section, it explains why Harden can use his step-back jumper.
According to the section, "A player who receives the ball while he is progressing or upon completion of a dribble, may take two steps in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball."

James Harden's step-back jumper includes a "gather step" that allows him to gather the ball, then take two steps.He does the "gather step" just in time to avoid traveling.

Literally the NBA coming out and saying Harden's step back is legal. Same.one Maxey does (he learned from Harden).

Another efficient night for the Embiid matchup.

Lopez - 21 points on 9/13 shooting.

Giannis travels all the time though, on simple shit he has such awkward footwork.

He leads the league in travel calls for a reason, and STILL constantly gets away with them. This is no secret, everyone is always pointing out his travels lol.


Shit like this.... https://twitter.com/clutchfans/status/1525289916309069824?t=rKK6UcITcl9temlualKZ7A&s=19
