    My Dad got us an unauthorized version that didn't have the text on it hanging in our house growing up. Worked for a printer that worked with Nike back in the day

    He literally takes 3 steps.

    Now, is it a traveling call in the NBA? No, they don't call that traveling and you're hardly ever going to see that called. Just like the rip through move that Al Jefferson does is a travel every single time. He completely switches his pivot foot on the rip through and it is very easy to see.. but they simply don't call traveling on that move. Both moves are certainly traveling.

    In regards to the poll question - I voted 'other'.

    I don't post on here too often, but I certainly try to visit this forum at least once a day. This site is awesome, and it's because of a ton of great posters. Everyone has a different take, and that's what makes it such a fun read.

    The list of posters in the poll is good, but a ton were left off - @Boob-No-More, @HCP, @Mediocre Man, @PtldPlatypus, @Chris Craig, @BlazerCaravan, @Eastoff, @dviss1, @riverman, @julius, @theprunetang, @Sleepwalker, @Orion Bailey , and @jlprk just to name a few. You guys are good entertainment.

    The Thunder and Timberwolves have played so many times this year so far.

    I counted six and I'm sticking with my alibi. The last dribble is right after the halfcourt line, then 6 steps.
