    Well, if you're going to forget about how many steps he took, I think pretty much anybody can do the move. :)

    A bunch of apps do it... one is Adobe Premiere. Of course I'd rather find something a bit cheaper.

    The only problem is that he didn't pass the ball!

    What a great move.

    Thanks SteveFranchise3, when he did that move I jumped out of my seat, with a yell.

    A behind-the-back pass to MoT would've looked much better to me. :cool:

    technically, it is the 2 step hop rule. sure it is a bit stretched out, but not necessarily a travel. and it was on a fast break, they almost never call that because it was not used to the advantage of a player. it was an obvious basket.

    To where exactly was Steve supposed to pass the ball? Maybe he's figured out a tear in the space/time continuim that allows him to teleport the ball through three separate Mavs players.

    I think it may be 2 1/2 steps, I think he picks the ball up when his foot is in the air and then he takes 2 more steps.

    It was 3 steps, 2 1/2 steps if you're a homer. ;)

    But if a referee had called a travel on THAT, it would be the most player hater travel call in NBA history.

    Travelling without being 'caught' is an art form on its own. I am glad Steve is doing well in that department.

    Anyway that move was beautiful piece.
