There is a crazy amount of difference in the muscles between her two legs. I wouldn't get into a bar fight with her right leg.

I seriously doubt there's any noticeable difference at all normally; it'll be a matter of angles and her balance, one leg is more tensed than the other IMO.

Of course she may go cycling and just providing one leg with as much exercise as possible, but I suspect she exercises both reasonably equally :)

You can't touch your own pass or shot unless it has first touched another player, the backboard, or the rim. If you do, it is travelling.

That's actually wrong since he never had 2 hands on the ball at the same time. That isn't traveling.

If anything, it would have been called a carry when he kind of put his palm under and made it go so high, but in the NBA they pretty much let that stuff go all the time now a days.

No matter how you slice it, you can't do that lol. This is the way I'm looking at it going by the NBA Rulebook found here: http://www.nba.com/news/officiating#/

While you can't put your hand under the ball while dribbling, he ceased to be dribbling when he did. The ball came to rest (Rule 4, section 2, a, 2) before he tossed it in the air. If he had continued to dribble instead of tossing it, yeah that's a carry. At this point it depends on what you consider that toss to be. I wasn't considering it to be a dribble as he didn't direct the ball towards the floor (same section in the book). I'd call it a pass or shot attempt, and since he was the first to touch the ball - travelling (rule 10, section 13, f + g). If you deem the toss to be an act of dribbling - carry. Either way, that's not legal haha.
