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

[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!

[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

[FreshSteff]

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

[drivefitness]

Thank you FreshSteff

[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!

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

[LaMusiqueetlabeat]

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

[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 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.

[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.

[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

[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.

[Panther016]

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

[jasonmeynard]

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