So I see 2 steps off a standing start to dunk - what exactly are the travel rules in USA? Also see perimeter shooters step to spot up don't get a look then dribble after spot up steps. We would call travel on these here.
Do you know the rules Mick? Since when can you take 2 steps and dunk after having both feet planted?

just wondering what the rules are - was watching virginia v notre dame and they had some highlights of another game - and the player was standing on the foul line - received the dish took 2 steps and dunked on the third.

Please refer to a million prior threads on the topic of "americans call travels less frequently than the fiba interpretation"...

From what I can tell the Yanks allow a gather step, ie if you catch the ball just before you take the two steps they tend to let it go.
You can't have a stutter step with 2 feet planted on the floor.

They dunk more, no one wants to take that aspect away from the game over there, so they are more lenient...

You would need to show video of what you're referring to for this discussion to continue.

Sam Young has been called for numerous Travelling violations in the NBA which would no way be called in the NBA.
