I've recently started playing basketball and was wondering about some of the comments made about thisthis (pretty cool) NBA commercial featuring LeBron James. It looks like he takes 1 step after receiving the ball before dribbling it, is that considered to be a travel? I doubt the NBA would make a commercial showing a blatant violation so I'm assuming it's valid but want to know what the exact rule is.

Is taking a step before dribbling the ball a travel?
