    When it comes to basketball, I'm very confused with the rules sometimes

    I seen people run with the ball to go for a close-up hoop shot, and the running seems like travelling, yet it's not

    sometimes I see people stop and dribble the ball, do some sort of fake (with 2 hands), and then run for the hoop and score. And then when I do it, I get called out for "double dribble" -____-

    and there's that one dude who's always sprinting faster than the speed of light, to the point where if u try to defend, u would get called out for foul. That high momentum dribbling strategy too op for me

    Kevin Durant confirmed

    Rule says that you can hold the ball and step twice.

    If someone touches the ball you can move again.
    @Benoon It's 3 steps

    Not completely right. People refer to it as "two-and-a-half steps", as you are not allowed to do any kind of three steps you want. Here is a quote from the NBA rulebook:

    "You're allowed 2 steps upon completion of a dribble, so if you dribble while pushing off of one foot, it is not counted toward one of your 2 allowed steps."

    That half-step is also called gather step (it makes euro steps look easy and fluid in the NBA), which is illegal in international tournaments, but not in the NBA #themoreyouknow

    I meant if you take 3 or more steps it's a travel.
