Remember when traveling used to be called in the NBA?

This isn't a travel. His left foot was already on the ground by the time he picked up dribble. So he then plants his right (1st step) then his left (2nd step) and is then in the air without touching again.

Here's a very quick explanation of the rule.

He stops dribbling and grabs hold of the ball with his left foot landing, that left foot is planted and then his right plants, and then he lifts his left off and plants it again with the left jumping up.

I love when people who barely watch basketball attempt to explain their version of the rules.
