@Shareefllovekdj not really a drop step or a power dribble. If you don't take our word for the whole power dribble thing, that's okay by us, but ask any coach worth their salt and they'll tell you the same thing. If you don't want to believe us, then you're free to do it any way that you feel fit! We're really here to help players be better and have all the tools possible to do so.
@ShotScience Sharee, if you will check on online for the "Power Dribble"you will see it is a common and legal dribble: Power Dribble
A dribble used in the low post involving a two handed, short dribble, usually in line with the middle of your body. A wide base is made with the feet, then a two handed "power dribble" is used.
@ShotScience Like the carrying and change of pivots that are commonly taught. Being commonly taught does not make it legal! I quoted the rule book now if you've seen a section that says except when it is called a "power dribble".....
@Shareefllovekdj we have never taught carrying or changing pivots. The two-handed power dribble is a staple in basketball. It is only used (and legal) in the post. If you wish not to believe us, that is fine. You will most assuredly see it used at every level of basketball. In fact, a one-handed power dribble in the post would be considered out of the ordinary. The two-handed power dribble is a one-and-up dribble.
@ShotScience I'm sorry. I didn't mean to give the impression that you did. To your credit you have stressed not carrying or changing pivots in your videos that is why I was shocked to find this two handed dribble which IS prevalent at all levels of basketball, although it is disallowed by the rules. I can show you the rule but you can't show me the disadvantage of using one hand to dribble in that same spot.
@Shareefllovekdj there simply isn't anything in the rulebook that states that you can't start a dribble with both hands (it actually says that you can). As soon as you scoop it up with both hands after the dribble, you can no longer continue to dribble. The advantage of the double as opposed to the single handed power dribble is that you're able to get a much faster, lower dribble that gets back to your hands faster. It is legal and always has been.
@Shareefllovekdj - Dribbling the ball with two hands is allowed as long as the ball only bounces once. It would be no different than catching the ball, putting it in one hand, dirbbling once then catching the ball. No difference under the FIBA or NBA rules. If he bounced the ball twice using two hands it would be a double dribble.
@duffmanbegins Great! You must have access to a rule book that reads differently than mine sooo.... Just cut and paste the rule or url that reads a two handed dribble is allowed!
@Shareefllovekdj - @Shareefllovekdj - Article 24 of the FIBA rule book states - A dribble starts when a player, having gained control of a live ball on the playing court, throws, taps, rolls, dribbles it on the floor. A dribble ends when the player touches the ball with both hands simultaneously or permits the ball to come to rest in one or both hands. A player shall not dribble a second time after his first dribble has ended.
Nothing says you can't start your dribble with two hands and end it
A double dribble is a violation in which a player dribbles the ball, clearly holds it with a combination of either one or two hands (while either moving or stationary), and then proceeds to dribble again without first either attempting a field goal or passing off to a teammate. Double dribbling also occurs if a player tries to dribble using both hands at the same time. ~NBA Official Rules Rule 4, Section II, a.
@Shareefllovekdj - Yes, you can't dribble with two hands. What's new? Doesn't mean the ball can't leave from two hands, it just means both hands cannot simmultaneously touch the ball mid dribble and you can't move the ball from one hand to the other without it touching the ground. If you do either of those things the dribble has ended. This guy ends his dribble then shoots. Legal.
@BazhoFromTheHood Thanks so much for your comment. We hope you will own them, but we have other post moves videos and will be offering several more. Stay tuned and please, "Spread the Word."
@adidas80699 If you are going to close the distance to the basket you need a dribble and we believe that the "power dribble" is the most efective way to get there with power. Cannot imagine a Drop Step without a power dribble or else it may be just a step and layup which is entirely different. Hope you understand our explanation. Thanks for your question.
@ShotScience do you feel that this can be a consistent go-to move? besides for this and the sky hook i have no other moves. Do you guys have any other moves that i should check out? Thank you very much.
@megamante360 Thanks for your questions. We will be posting other moves from the Low, Medium and High posts in the near future. Most moves we make are the result of where and how the defender is playing us. They dictate which move we should make. Stay tuned for more post moves.
@dropsblood PRACTICE will help you here. We often are slow because we lack confidence in what we are trying to do. Practice a ton on your moves and as your confidence grows you will become an "animal."
@JupiterPhareal These are two really different moves that are executed because of where the defender is playing you. They are not in competition with one another. No problem for you to like one more than the other. You may really need the Drop Step sometimes and it will be there.
@ShotScience please coach do some tutorials on how to play in a team,how to create space to get maximum passes from team mates and what should be the strategy of all players to play in team,and how to avoid misunderstandings between players please this is very important subject must do tutorials on it

Coach I love how you say NO FADING. I FADE SO MUCH. ARGH... and the 1 MISSISSIPPI THING I DEFINETLY NEED TO REMEMBER THAT.
Btw, Coach.
Don't you have to use a lot of body when you do your drop step? because people teach me that whenever I do my drop step...I should swing my leg keep my elbows up stick my butt out and force them out of my side. like *shaq*
@sanjiblue1: If they have shut off your path to the basket you need to kick the ball back outside. You could, if in position to score, use the up-fake and go to the rack anyway looking for a foul on them. A final thought, this person comes from your backside and they are leaving someone open when they do this , look to drop a bounce pass to their man and hope that defensive rotation does not close him off also. Good question.
by definition it is a double dribble but if you play ball, you know u can take that 1 dribble like that in the post... you do that on the perimiter, they will call something on you
The power dribble isn't a double dribble because you only take ONE dribble with the strong 2 handed pound. If you were to take more than one dribble in this way, then it would be a double dribble call.
Hi Coach. I am from Serbia (a freshmen ). My dream is to get a scholarship and go to America for College.I really dont know the system in America.How can i get a scolarship for highscool to finish one year in America as a Sophtmore,Junior or Senior?I am talking for a sport scolarship for basketball ofcourse... thanks in advance =)
@jovicakcar: Well thank you so much for your letter about a scholarship to play here in High School basketball. High Schools are not allowed to provide scholarships to player from the U.S or from anywhere else. There are college scholarships , but you would need to be discovered and then meet the requirements for the NCAA. The best way to get here and play in one of High Schools is to find a Foreign Exchange Student Program that is accepted in the U.S. We are not allowed to really help you.
i hav a question...........i have been training with a new team and our coach pays a lot of attention on the physical training. Since I've started my quads are hurting (probably cause i am not used to similar training.The question is: Will this continue for long and is there any exercise that will help me reduce the pain?
@TheThealbanianking when you start a new training program, you typically will have a bit of soreness. This usually goes away after a week or two of regular training. The best way to get over this is to really work on your flexibility and make sure you're VERY warmed-up before you start any of the training. Our Vertical Training Videos would be great for you to check out!
hello shotscience!. can you make a video on how to do floaters the right way??i mean the difference between a normal jumpshot and a floater; the only thing i know is that you dont follow through in floaters..is that right?
Nice demo. The drop step is the premier low post move. I would have added that its essential to work both sides- right handed players love the left block but the moves are predictable if you cant do them left handed, too. Also, you can use the drop step on the high side too, you just need another finish, something like a baby hook or push shot.
@MrPainfulTruth yep, you definitely want to be able to perform any post move from either side of the key. The guys in the video are all right handers and running the move from the weak-hand side.
As for the high side drop step, they are classified as a different move and we'll be covering them, too. Stay tuned ;)
hey coach, is it legit to power dribble with two hands then land on both feet simultaneously then continue the dribble with one hand as you land creating a series of pivot moves?
@0nekhmerXViet with the power dribble, you are only allowed one and then you're done. You can't continue to dribble after you throw it down. If you do, they'll definitely call you for a travel. It's meant to be a super fast, quick dribble to get you some separation. Make sense?
Great video! I need to work on my footwork for this in-game so I get it right and practice will help! Ya'll got any tips of posting up against zone defense and how to draw a foul? That'll help me tonnes, thanks!
@flaminchar220: Hey Flamin, thanks for your nice comment. Practice this a ton and you will dominate. Posting against zones in a little different. Check out our video on "Sealing in the Post." This is more useful against a zone defender as they usually are not on top of you. The Drop Step still works against them however. We will have more move

@jovicakcar: Well thank you so much for your letter about a scholarship to play here in High School basketball. High Schools are not allowed to provide scholarships to player from the U.S or from anywhere else. There are college scholarships , but you would need to be discovered and then meet the requirements for the NCAA. The best way to get here and play in one of High Schools is to find a Foreign Exchange Student Program that is accepted in the U.S. We are not allowed to really help you.

i hav a question...........i have been training with a new team and our coach pays a lot of attention on the physical training. Since I've started my quads are hurting (probably cause i am not used to similar training.The question is: Will this continue for long and is there any exercise that will help me reduce the pain?

@TheThealbanianking when you start a new training program, you typically will have a bit of soreness. This usually goes away after a week or two of regular training. The best way to get over this is to really work on your flexibility and make sure you're VERY warmed-up before you start any of the training. Our Vertical Training Videos would be great for you to check out!

Nice demo. The drop step is the premier low post move. I would have added that its essential to work both sides- right handed players love the left block but the moves are predictable if you cant do them left handed, too. Also, you can use the drop step on the high side too, you just need another finish, something like a baby hook or push shot.
MrPainfulTruth 11 months ago
@MrPainfulTruth yep, you definitely want to be able to perform any post move from either side of the key. The guys in the video are all right handers and running the move from the weak-hand side.
As for the high side drop step, they are classified as a different move and we'll be covering them, too. Stay tuned ;)

@ShotScience excellent - i cant wait, this was the first QUALITY video covering the low post i have seen here in ages. Can't wait.

hey coach, is it legit to power dribble with two hands then land on both feet simultaneously then continue the dribble with one hand as you land creating a series of pivot moves?
0nekhmerXViet 11 months ago
@0nekhmerXViet with the power dribble, you are only allowed one and then you're done. You can't continue to dribble after you throw it down. If you do, they'll definitely call you for a travel. It's meant to be a super fast, quick dribble to get you some separation. Make sense?

wouldn't doing that power dribble with both hands be a double dribble?

@BlastFromYesterday: NO! It is not considered a double dribble.

@BlastFromYesterday double dribble is when u first dribble the ball then catch it with ur two hands, then dribble again.
Bombdrop57 11 months ago
@BlastFromYesterday It's not a double dribble if it's your first dribble after the catch.

Great video! I need to work on my footwork for this in-game so I get it right and practice will help! Ya'll got any tips of posting up against zone defense and how to draw a foul? That'll help me tonnes, thanks!
flaminchar220 11 months ago
@flaminchar220: Hey Flamin, thanks for your nice comment. Practice this a ton and you will dominate. Posting against zones in a little different. Check out our video on "Sealing in the Post." This is more useful against a zone defender as they usually are not on top of you. The Drop Step still works against them however. We will have more move
