I was looking at the "top ten plays of the year" from the same place, and number three was LeBron first gamewinner against the Wiz last year. Funny that there is at least one replay for every other play, but in the one where the golden boy of the NBA BLATANTLY TRAVELS, we get nothing. Absolute garbage.

It's an extra step because on the moving of his right foot. He keeps that foot planted and its a normal two foot jumpstop and crossover step. Hardly something I'd call blatant.
Honestly the refs were not in a good position on that play. The back ref is looking for the upper body contact worthy of a foul. The baseline ref is looking at the lower body. He was totally out of position.
How is it not blatant when you move your pivot foot (which is allowed) and then replant that same pivot foot (which is a travel)? I don't care where the refs were, because if they weren't in a good position to call a travel, then they just aren't very smart. You can't watch the final play of the game as a ref, and only watch for "upper body contact".
