Referees have been told to target three types of traveling: changing one's pivot feet; faking with one foot, then moving the other direction before the ball touches the court; and shooting off the wrong foot after a bunny hop. The league also wants to eliminate a lot of the jostling that goes on between players when they line up along the key for free throws.
Interesting. They just didn't play by the rules until now. This is in connection with problems on internationaly scene. So there is not that much difference between NBA and FIBA rules.
