Corey Maggette Travels 6 Times In One Play

NBA, Video / Feb 11, 2009 / 9:39 am

This is amazing. Make sure to check out the little notes on the side of the video, which illustrate all six of Corey Maggette‘s steps on this play. Does this count as a crab dribble?

lol that’s not a crab dribble, that’s a lobster dribble. Or better yet an octopus dribble. But I guess you would have to travel 8 times for an octopus dribble huh?

They knew it didn’t matter because it was Magette, was going to turn it over anyway. It’s like trying to figure out if Shaq’s toe was on the three point line, it’s not like the shot is going in.

this is really bad.. i thought they said they would clean this up a couple years ago.. I remember reggie miller and allen iverson would do this all the time. one time, AI got the ball a good 2 feet under the 3 point line, and by the time he was done adjusting his pivot feet, yes feet, he was completely behind the 3 point line. LOL i love AI, but dang, that’s just wrong.

are the refs taught to look at the defender instead of the feet? there has to be an explanation for this

Jah says:

LOL @ Prof. TX!

That was some horrible officiating right there, though.

Mamba says:

Wow! That has to be one of the worst cases I have ever seen. Forget the crab dribble that was a full on shuffle! LMAO at him taking down the opposing player and then looking to the ref for relief! Sometimes I feel like traveling in the NBA is similar to holding in the NFL, they really could call it a lot more than they do.

But thats a close second to the biggest sham of the night; which was without a doubt the pair of fouls called on Granger and Bron. That ish was crazy! Way to let the players play at the end.

Notorious says:

Crazy, the worst part is seeing the Ref stare at him the ENTIRE time and not call a thing. Watch the slow mo and focus on the ref’s head, he watches it develop right in front of his face and calls nothing??? WTF?!?!

Man, i wish the NBA was played the same way as a College game

The Bloke says:

come on. don’t all act like this is amazing. almost every player travels a couple of times every game and gets away with it. d-wade travels on every spin move, rip takes like 18 steps after he catches a ball in motion…they just all do it

kevin k says:

yea the nba reffing is terribad but, if they called every single play, the game will seriously last 3-4 hours.

Also for you haters out there… it’s really difficult to officiate. I help ref some rec leagues and trust me, stuff goes by way too fast for you to call everything and that’s a rec league. think about the speed of the nba… 1 way to fix this is have more than 3 refs where some are designated to check only the players feet and stuff but…

and then every one is wondering why nba players get whistles in FIBA competition.

dagwaller says:

Hahahaha classic. I agree that calling every foul would make the game last forever. It’s like in football – you know that holding happens on EVERY play, but unless the ref is right there looking at it, no use in getting upset about it.

Speaking of football, why are there like 10 refs on the field for that, but basketball still only gets a few?! Can’t we get one dedicated travel guy or something?

dan k says:

Refs for the game were: Matt Boland , Mark Ayotte , Bob Delaney

That looks like Bob Delaney at the bottom of the screen ignoring the first four travels…
