It looks like the gather rule is from 2016. I'd be shocked if that move was not technically travelling in 1998. Then again, no referee is going to call it on Michael Jordan in that circumstance so it might as well be legal.
Interestingly, in the documentary Jordan denied he pushed off lol. But maybe there is a contrarian take on that? Like Russell was trying to get the foul call? I don't know it doesn't seem likely he would have flopped in that circumstance.
