THE STEP-BACK BY JAMES HARDEN IS A TRAVEL

[Malta]

So when you made the thread titled "the step-back by James Harden is a travel", you were referring to one singular step back he took last year?

He is by far the dumbest poster on here.

not getting in yall shyt, but there is a difference between the 2...look at harden's right foot when he steps forward...it actually touches the ground before he steps back, unlike kobe's left foot, which doesnt....

GOOD SHIIT, I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE THAT

Dribble is still live at that point, ball is on the ground.

true, they did, just said chauncey cause he was the first that came to mind.....how is it not a serious offense though?...

I mean it's not a serious offense because everybody does it. The playing field therefore is level lol.

.......................You still don't know what a gather step is

U STILL THINK JUMPING BACKWARDS TO CREATE SPACE IS GATHERING YOURSELF

STEPPING backwards is counted as a gather.

Any reason why Manu never got called for it in international play with Non-NBA refs? Manu's step back was even slower and more drawn out than Hardens.

NOPE .. BECAUSE A MAJORITY OF HIS STEP-BACKS ARE LIKE THAT, AND I WAS REFERRING TO THE STEP-BACK HE MISSED IN LAST NIGHTS GAME. PAY ATTENTION.

SO HE'S GATHERING HIMSELF?

i dont know about...he was gathering when he his right foot touched the first time....it happens quickly, but it happens....but, we get the benefit of seeing this slowed down, looped over and over again, unlike refs, so i can see how they missed it....

people are ruining the world with these exceptions though just like they ruined rap

"just let them have fun"
"its not that bad hater"




next thing you know people are palming the ball, hop stepping then step backing into a crab dribble
and its supposed to be fun and games


might as well just change the rules to 3 steps and take that L instead of making the game ugly and twisting the rules because you have lack of talent

I agree 100%

This one thing I like about college over the pros.

ANOTHER ONE WHO THINKS JUMPING BACKWARDS IS THE SAME AS GATHERING YOURSELF


NO WONDER THE BASKETBALL OPINIONS ON THIS FORUM ARE GENERALLY RETARDED.. YALL DONT EVEN KNOW THE GAME.

Everybody does not do the bullshyt Harden does. A lot of players have proper footwork and technique. Even Clude Frazier was commenting on how much Harden travels and doesn't get called.

after hes tapped his right foot, hes already gathered the ball and has both feet on the ground so he cant legally take 2 more steps at that point. it would be no different than not having a dribble then taking two steps before shooting a jumper. i think its definitely a travel.
