During a game.

Phantom -- thanks for that, amazing.

I realize that, even though occurring in a game, it was probably just exhibition. Yet I'm still curious: had this been an official game of some sort---I counted four or five steps between the bounce pass and the catch---would the basket have been allowed or would traveling have been called? Or is a move like this actually legitimate?

As long as he never picked up his dribble it should be ok.

Thanks, Jim. Actually after I asked I remembered often seeing guards coming up court doing just that--allowing the ball to bounce without touching it as they walk and then continue to dribble it. I also often wondered about that.
