Dangerous drinking game

I do have a question about the 3 step dunks. Is it actually legal, or just universally understood that it won't be called?

I mean, it's blatantly obvious, and probably not long before it becomes 4 steps.

When ESPN tweeted that first dunk, 99% of the million replies were about it being traveling.
 
Bilas took this Zion thing and ran with it like his job depended on it. Sad cause I always thought he was above the ESPN hype train.

Agree. I had 'Zion Fatigue' before the game even started. Bilas used to be pretty fair when criticizing bad calls too.

It's all about the 'gather step'. The gather used to count as the first of the two steps a player was allowed. Gather, step, shoot. About 2 decades ago, it seems the gather stopped counting as a step. So it's; gather, step, step, shoot.
