DRIVE Basketball Drills: 2 Foot Step Arounds (Lebron James)

[glsocum]

he needs to use his left hand. he will never get any better if he doesnt

[AceofDlamonds]

Someone did this to me before; is this legal???.......

He hopped about an inch on the floor right.....looked like he slid actually.....and stayed on one foot.......his next little hop with the other foot went left and totally fooled me.......he landed with both feet on the floor and he basically got a set free shot.

Amazingly simple and effective trick.......is it legal?

[20musicfreak20]

travel that last time. man u gotta explode, thats hella weak prohop, u should look at mine. or just check out derrick rose pro hop thats who i learn it from

[jasonmeynard]

this is not a travel .. this is actually im always doing =)) .

[FunnyAzns]

Travel

[Joe7Kickass]

nice left hand junior

[dookiefacee]

ok. that double hope towards the end is a travel. i don't see why it is legal to make two jump stop and actually land twice.

[da0nil00006]

stupid guys coming here just to say lebron traveled blah blah blah go f yourself!!!!

[utubesucksheha]

i been told you cant do that in the nba anymore.. its considered traveling.. dont know if its true.

[toopsable]

Drive is terrible

[generalpooh]

That guy in the video takes layup with wrong hand..

[ActaFoolzz]

traveling if you don't land both feet at the same time, and big time travel at the end. And you're lucky if no one calls carrying because you clearly cuffed under the ball

[osher180398]

and the special thing is_______ ?!

[Dangitsdan]

Except people wont guard you like that..

[isreal95]

the move is nice but honestly i would pick the ball if he went right in front of me like that!

[kebabkevinaco]

All of the bumbasses commenting "travel" in this tape probably suck balls at basketballl. Take a course that will lead you through the rules of basketball and you will -hopefully- learn something new about basketball moves.

[WoodrowTornado]

Don't take basketball tips from this middle school girl.

A tip for any boys that are watching: Basketball is a contact sport, don't hop around like a freaking bunny rabbit.

[Deadngone51o]

QUESTION!

Is it legal to hop step with one foot, but land on both?

[sccrgk24]

how bout a left hand.

[drivefitness]

@lfroggyl - your right, he skips into that one.

[lfroggyl]

0:19 is a travel

[DaGreatTim]

It's a travel if u take a step without dribbling before you jump.

[Raickou44]

lebrons version is the "crab dribble" -.-

[Sammy2g3]

People call travel on me for doing things like that all the time. I love how some people are so quick to call travel because you do a move too fast.

[Pewpshmear]

its not a travel. he stopped dribbling immediately before he landed and took off of both feet. The ball was out of his hands by the time he landed again.

[lacrosseplayer217]

The one kid only uses his Right hand! :(

[schoolfree]

that's look like traveling...............can someone tell me how do u know whether it's a travel ??

[heartblazer14]

thank u

[piann00b]

it's a jump stop and lay-up people...that ain't a travel.

[CPBlazier]

for high school people these days, KOBE is the biggest name you could use to get us to remember it.

[SkaterCartoon]

uhhhh hes not moving...

[Diviniteee]

It's only a travel if you hop of TWO feet, i believe?

If you hop off one then it should be fine

[kingandy1000]

he cant layup with his left

[GetDatMoney321]

@kingandy1000 he deffiently cant lol

[xxFlghterXxx]

umm, can we take two steps after we stop dribbling?

[sealfet]

that is a travel, at least the way he does it. When going to the right he picks the ball up after he steps with his left foot the steps with the right, hops, lands on his right foot (which is already a travel, since you can't land on the same foot during your 2 steps) and then he jumps off his left foot. Meaning he takes 3 steps and technically commits 2 traveling violations.

[MaplekidFtw]

@sealfet wait so how does that work ?

[tohst]

actually it's just that the kid is learning the tech, he screws it up, if you jump of 1 foot and land on both feet simultaneously it counts as 1 'step' (the rule is actually a 1,2 rythmn not 2 steps) so as long as he times the hop and lands on both feet at the same time this move is completely legal

[noren28]

you know when you hop step do you have to hop off with too feet ?

[sealfet]

well you have to land on two feet because you cant really jump off two feet while dribling.

[reggaeking23]

ITs called LEcrab dribble

[prionoandhi]

legal and effective

[Pizzle23]

thats a travel at that kids level. might get away with it but on a prohop your only allowed to come down on two feet at the same time

[drivefitness]

its not a travel!

[tilmface]

@drivefitness it is on the landing must land feet at the same time

[laorjlse]

it is where i play (not saying it is for you..) if youre quick enough it wont matter as long as its close

[ilnas]

that is a travel...the kid is not landing on two feet...he's landing one two which is a travel...

[Pizzle23]

thank you ilnas

[sealfet]

precisely.

[guimara9]

@Pizzle23 Its travel if he already made one step before.

[Panther016]

@Pizzle23 the kid does come down on two feet at the same time

[Pizzle23]

@Panther016 are you watching the same video i am? right at the beginning you can see hes going left right layup. A hopstep only allows you to come down on both feet AT THE SAME EXACT TIME. Not slightly alternating. NBA makes exceptions. I play in England this season and they dont really call that either but I know from JR high to College , they call this on a regular basis.

[LaMusiqueetlabeat]

as fa as I see he doenst do a normal step before the hop. at least the dribbles while doing it. he just does one hop/step after he collects the ball so it shouldnt matter if he comes down with both feet at nthe same time.

[LaMusiqueetlabeat]

@Pizzle23 ur jealous. lebron has just great talent and is blessed with a strong body. stop hatin on his game. the pro-hop is a strong and cool move. everybodys talking bout if its traveling or not. nobody knows exactly. nba refs dont call it. high school refs obviously dont do. I played under18 in europe and my teammate did it all the way, refs didnt call it. so what? if they dont call it and nobody agrees if its traveling or not..learn it! its a big advantage for the offensive player.

[Pizzle23]

@LaMusiqueetlabeat lolol when did I ever say anything about Lebron?? Who are these losers?? HEY FAG, UNDER 18 IS NOT IMPRESSIVE IN EUROPE. YOU PLAYED UNDER 18 BECAUSE ONCE YOU GOT TO THE HIGHER LEVEL, YOU COULDNT CUT IT. Im playing in England this year and they are not prone to call travels like this one because it is a pro level but LIKE I SAID EARLIER...AT THIS KIDS LEVEL IT IS A TRAVEL.

[LaMusiqueetlabeat]

@Pizzle23 wasnt even for u, but for swish164. my bad. on ur answer: calm down man.

[swish164]

lebron didnt make this?

his version is 5 steps leading to a pro hop then an offesive foul dunk but he gets a 3 point play

[muffinman18]

ahahaha you're a beautiful man.

[Z43hoops]

lol true

[FreshSteff]

@swish164 he did this nice and correctly very often watch his high school footage

[drivefitness]

Thank you FreshSteff

[rlReg]

@FreshSteff Lebron used his with speed and immense power but thats only in game situations

[drivefitness]

Lebron didnt make it but he used it very effectively in HS, the biggest name we could use to get our kids to remember it!

[adamkwas]

@swish164 shut up

[chrstm]

is a pro hop valid if prior to the pro hop the player takes 2-3 steps as he is gathering control of the dribble? basically a scenario would be when a player is driving down the lane, from top of the key or going coast to coast, and he gathers himself by taking extra steps. Would those extra steps be added in the initial count of the number of steps for the traveling violation.

[Sekiyoba]

No if you take two steps than a prohop its traveling

[TheOmegachron]

when you gather the dribble and then step do you then have to land with both feet in order to jump with both feat and then shoot?

[Sekiyoba]

yeah you can do that or you can land on one leg an do a fade away

[lnabz]

how is this move called the lebron james?? and players been doing it since the 90's.....too much d*** ridin'!

[jclynch5]

Do you have to land on both feat at the same time?

[Z43hoops]

yes especially to make more affective

[FlawI355]

wait when he first jumps is it with one leg or two?

what is hop step?

[mightyPants]

A hop step is when you pick up your dribble and hop one step while holding the ball with 2 hands, after the hop you can still have the jumping step off one foot.

[Mydude412]

This a great video because this move has gotten me to about 21 points a game in our high school league.... the video didnt teach me how to do it, but this can definatley show others a way easier way to score by driving to the basket. And ya your right about the crab dribble thing.

[drivefitness]

Is that what the investigation they had came up with? Im not sure, because on the pro-hop you land on 2, Truehoop was looking at what Lebron did vs Washington when he lands on 2 and than 1-2's to the basket, he was trying to call this his crab dribble.

[redskullz124]

According to TrueHoop, the pro-hop is illegal...
