Can you take a step while picking up your dribble then take two more steps when shooting a shot or layup?
The easy answer is no. Once an offensive player gets a rebound, which usually means obtaining possession by coming down on two feet, they cannot take two steps and attempt another shot or pass. For more information the NBA rule book available at nba.com gives good detail in Section XIV-Traveling.

How do you know that a basketball dribble has completed?
Usually it is when the player has both hands on the ball.
