@jleithart Thanks, hadn't checked that out yet. That other angle is key in looking at the play.

I also heard that Ganobli is a commie…

@Jeremy Schmidt Hardwood Paroxysm have already jumped the gun. If you look at their video it becomes obvious it's not a travel.

@James I would argue that it appeared he took a second step before the jump stop though, which would make it a travel. What I mean is, his right foot came down, then left foot and then he did his jump-stop. Only one foot is allowed before the jump stop. It's tough to tell though.

I was hoping you’d ask the question: why was Mbah a Moute in there on the last offensive possession in the first place? Skiles should have known that Pop would take a timeout even if the Bucks missed the shot with only a few seconds left.

I think there was still something of a push-off though too.

Simply not a travel. Look at this:
http://www.nba.com/videorulebook/category.html?cid=76
Official rule book states that a player can hop fron the first step and land on both feet and not be called for a travel.

If you’ve ever watched an NBA game you’ll see players utilising the jump stop all the time and not get called for travelling. The jump stop by Ginobili was legal.
