God I wished I had these videos growing up. Just tried some of the more advanced stuff at the gym, and as terrible and as out of shape as I am at basketball they still worked. People looked at me like I was a basketball savant, but in reality Charles Barkley would refer to me as "tuuurrible" Keep up the great videos. They are phenomenal.

I always do this move when attacking I never knew it has a name 😂😂

Great tutorials. Great music. Great videos. Great channel. You deserve more subscribers period!

Wtf i never knew it was a inverted euro. I always thought the eurostep could go left and right i didnt know there was a diffetence lmao

I ref several games at varying degrees of competitiveness and can attest that James Harden's Inverted Euro is NOT a travel. It's a perfectly legal move albeit extremely difficult to pull off and I call travels on people when they get it wrong. Whenever they argue with me about the call, I simply say that the timing of his jab step was not perfectly instantaneous with his dribble and therefore a travel. Stay with me as I explain: James Harden @1:27 The thing I look for is if the ball handler takes a dribble AT THE SAME TIME he jab steps before his allotted two steps for the layup. For James, you'll notice that he power dribbles with his left hand while instantaneously (this is important) stepping with his right foot before he initiates his left and then right foot for the layup. If the left hand dribble is already on the way up BEFORE his initial right foot jab had lifted off the ground, then that would be a travel. This is one of the little technicalities regarding footwork that make you more dangerous if you remember them (kind of like why you hop when catch a pass in the post so you can choose your pivot foot before you attack). Exact same concept as when he does it in @1:50 Emmanuel Mudiay @1:55 Same concept as Harden. Look at the timing in which he dribbles the ball and takes that jab step with his right foot. The dribble happens instantaneously with the jab step, which therefore does not count as one of his allotted two steps. For all the folks saving Westbrook's move @2:05 is not a travel, it's really no different from Mudiays (except Russ chooses not to rotate his hip and leave his right leg trailing when he could have contorted it for a regular layup. which leaves me to.. Russell Westbrook @0:19 Notice in the slow mo how the dribble is already on the way up BEFORE that left foot jab actually touches the floor. In THIS case, this counts as his first of two allotted steps. If he had taken another step with his left foot that would have been a tough-to-see but illegal move. That's why making sure the ball touches the hardwood the same time your jab matters so you can get those two legal steps for the separation and layup.

I've been a fan of you guys ever since the process series u guys had put out I love that u are actually getting recognized for ur hardwork

All the people saying travel need to understand the concept of a live dribble.

I LOVE using this move:) I remember my coach just playin around imitating moves and he did this move, I was like to myself "maybe I should try this out". Game improved a lot ever since

Attention to Detail: Allen Iverson

Great Video as usual 😎🔥 been doing this move a lot lately after watching Westbrook💯

Love this channel man. It's helping me a lot

I love this channel! Quality content!

Thank you coach, am writing down and checking things off. THANKS

In a months time im betting you'll hit 100k subs! Keep up the awesome work!

"None of those are travels" ahah made my day.

GREATEST CHANNEL EVER

YES! Ive been trying to get this down thank you!!!

Hey I appreciate your help with this videos, I know it takes a lot of time especially if its just 1 person working to make it work. And I notice you done videos on some big time players and their mindsets. Had you ever thought about Jason Williams he was and is slept on I participated in a exposure camp he played in this past July and his game is unique.

loving these vids

great great channel, lovin it.

Tremendous breakdown 👍🏾

Thank you for sharing!!

WHAT A GREAT VIDEO FROM A WELL ORGANIZED CHANNEL!

I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks this should be called as travelling. Thanks for the video anyway.

Love your taste in music. Lockjaw in the background btw

You can't travel while dribbling. Until you pick up the ball, your steps DO NOT COUNT. Once you pick up the ball from dribbling you get two steps. That's why none of these are travels.

thank you for this video‼️

Travelling. What's so great about travelling.

I love the fact that the most explosive player in these clips is the only one that doesn't travel, give russ some credits folks

Definitely gotta add this to the bag

got yourself a new sub :)

Harden more often than not escapes some traveling calls because of his way of Euro step. If you look more closely he sometimes dribbles then takes the jab step before he adds two extra steps for his Euro/inverted Euro step. Westbrook does it more cleanly with his strong first step then adds his dribble before changing directions executing Euro step. Either way it's a great escape move.

Underrated move .

Attention to Detail: Kwame Brown

that dribble on the hit is so important

I had been doing the reverse euro and harden step back for years i stopped playing ball cause i was told i had a street reputuar that didnt work in standard basketball.... remember i grew up in an era where streetball and1 and other fancy stylings were new and amazing so i dedicated my time perfecting street moves for standard play..and looks like i wasnt the only 1

Dope video

nice video! !!

thank you

yeah I've noticed this move being used a lot now esp by westbrook. Great separation

As a Milwaukee Bucks fan it is hard to admit that this and all euro step combinations are and will always be travelling.

NICE MAN!!! been so long trying to find a move for fastbreak situations in pickup cos they can always foul you if you go straight at them. last clip was funny tho, defender excpecting WB to take off at the free throw line? haha

I also think it would be awesome if you made a video on all the times and situations where the defense doesnt expect you to change speeds or direction

cool thanks! i like all your hard work . if you do make a lebron detailed video its much appreciated and will be recognized by all the followers you have! ill continue to bring people to your channel. just Don't forget about the champion of 2016 which should be the next video because its relevant now. that would get you so many views and likes . timing is everything for your channel to skyrocket.

Can't wait to do this randomly to the strangers whenever Im about to bump to somebody

Wow, very insightful..my only question is on that pound dribble am i jabbing to the side or towards the defender (straight)?

What those saying its a travel dont understand is the first step is with a DRIBBLE......if you know basketball rules, 2 steps are allowed after a dribble. its 3 steps yes, but step number 1 is along with the dribble. The move is amazing for drawing fouls as well because of the shiftyness involved doing it correctly.

Nice vids

nice game

I need that beat what's the name also I just wanna say great channel keep up the good work always looking forward to the next video

00:18 it's more like a cross jab than a euro step 00:40 the set up- fake with eyes, attacking straight ahead into the lane of the retreating the defender 00:58 footwork - similar to the cross jab except without the crossover just a same hand pound and jab then you still have two steps to finish at the rim 1:42 selling it - pound the ball at the same time as the jab step, shifting your body along with mid section to create a lane 1:47 watch how hard makes the move in traffic. Right after the pound, he picks the ball up with two hands and makes his 1-2 step to layup (practice this, improves ball protection, score in traffic) 1:54 practice making the move and finishing with two feet 2:05 - 2 foot finish by Westbrook, he takes off from outside the circle

a player breakdown of joakim noah would be great but this is also fantastic

Harden be low key traveling like shit. Russell jont look smooth

te agradeciria mucho si pusieras subtitulos . por que estos videos son oro puro para mejorar en el baloncesto , gracias ...

Great explanation and tutorials, however, I feel like a lot of high school refs where I'm from are quick to call a travel on that one, some of the time Westbrook does it without the extra step and it looks great, but when they take that third step HS refs be quick to blow.

You should do Tony Parker or John Stockton...you deserve way more subscribers.

called the 'side step' back in the days

can you do a by any means with Tracy Mcgrady?

This kind of move always lead up to an arguments and fighting on pick up games 😂😂😂

One important crucial as seen in all of Harden's clips is the stutter steps taken before the actual move

Once you dominate this move m8te...😤

What's the move called? The one where u hold the ball with 2 hands up and down and then layup?

Wow, I thought the inverted eurostop was basically just a off the wrong foot eurostep (which is what RB does a lot in this vid). Interesting vid.

Can you do a breakdown of the between the legs crossover

seems like the right time to do a spin move while using this move

I started tripping when I heard the introduction song bc I paused that on my Spotify and I was like I didn't hit play

isn't gather step only for crossovers?? so what they're doing is travelling isn't it except WEstbrook??

Do a breakdown down on court vision

🔥🔥🔥🔥

The inverted euro is actually just inverting which foot you use. This video is just a regular euro. Ty Lawson does a inverted euro. Check him out

how to differentiate nba travelling call to other basketball leagues travelling calls..

If you guys would just read the NBA rule book instead of getting your panties in a bunch about this travel bullshit. They changed the rule for almost a decade now. You are allowed a step when you are GATHERING the ball. Once the ball is gathered you can go into your 2 steps following the gather. They don't count the step when you are gathering the ball. Stop being stuck in the 90s and just deal with the fact that the game is evolving. It's just how it is now.

attention to detail : Demar Derozan

Do a breakdown down on d angelo Russell

Do they travelling? They get the 3 step while carrying the ball.

can you do regular euro? thanks

Basically do an in-out move followed by an eurostep

These are travels. I understand some might say "gather" step but when you pick up the ball and take three steps that is still a travel.

Not a single travel. you can pound the ball down on a step, gather it while going into your next AND still take another step. That's allowed in the NBA. Now sure, most of the world wouldn't much benefit from knowing this since it's basically not allowed anywhere else but in accordance to the league they're playing in, no one travelled in this video.

Manu ginobili been doing this from time.

Do a breakdown on magic Johnson

I don't understand the move, how does it separate from the eurostep?

Harden be traveling

easy tip to do this. you need to pound the dribble hard INTO your opponent. not to the left or right, but into him, make it as if you are going to run over him. then immediately take a step to the left or right and do the lay up. the hard pound dribble will freeze the defender right there and u will win a step

In Philippines threy called travelling . sad

do how to get contacts dunks on people

a player breakdown of Russell Westbrook

In the NBA, these moves are okay, since you're allowed to have a "gather step", followed by two steps. Harden is an expert in using this move. In other leagues, like in Europe or international play, this "gather step" is not mentioned in the rulebook, making it illegal. In this video, Westbrook uses a correct eurostep according to FIBA and NCAA rules. The eurosteps by Harden is okay in the NBA, but illegal in FIBA and NCAA.

A breakdown of the dribbling head fake? plz

Bite downnnn

can u gather your feet after your second step I never do

Much easier with some good traveling :D

Can someone explain what an inverted euro is? Lol sorry I still cant understand the move and how to perform it even after the move and how the move goes.

what's that beat it's fire

Those are travels more than 2 steps while handling the ball is considered as travelling.
