3 Simple BUT Deadly Post Moves: Footwork For Centers and Power Forwards

[@sportyslimey1618]

FINALLY A VIDEO THAT HELPS POSTS NOT JUST POINT GUARDS, I tried all these in a game and I scored 36 points!!!

[@dashbye]

@winemaplesyrupcoconutsugar lol I got a championship tonight lol lets hope it works

[@bobthebozo7272]

What if I scored 38 👀

[@BostonTerrierDad623]

In my experiences, a lot of these KZbin segments are either tired, too fancy (for kids) or someone trying too hard to reinvent the wheel just so they can call the tip "theirs" - this is one of the best videos I've seen yet. The teaching he offers on the fadeaway is extremely important (release point & follow thru) & will either be overlooked or not known by many basketball tipsters. Well done -- I am refreshed that you have the "feel" of an elite basketball camp. I went to many, many camps from local & regional to Coach Smith's Carolina Basketball School to "invitation only" camps before finally playing in college - I then helped out by coaching at camps / clinics...this video is highly recommended for those wanting more tools in your belt. **NOTE** - these moves ARE NOT for the post players only. These moves are for driving & scoring guards, guards who post up defenders, or people who play in offenses that could receive the ball in these spots (flex, motion, etc.).

@Kevin Huang really? major disrespect for Dirk. he doesnt even get called in international so shut it

[@crazywildman]

@Kevin Huang please Kobe, KD picked it up after. So travel? Go cry a river

[@crazywildman]

@Kevin Huang hold on a minute, i lost u there. whos fake superstar, who' traveling. who cheats and lie? im just saying dirk move is effective that kobe, KD picked it up. travel? show me that dirk is consistently traveling on that move. If you are saying Dirk is not a superstar at his prime u r dumb. Dirk are true and true champion where he did not transfer team to win a championship. Dirk use this move in international events where dirk not called for traveling. so where are your basis? just because i dont agree with you. doesnt mean i lie and cheat. so keep your slander to yourself

[@crazywildman]

@Kevin Huang lol i like how u dont have basis, or facts resort to slander. who are the " no name " that tried to pull out "dirk one legged move and called for ? oh maybe its your gym mates. no point arguing with u cos you dont even back your arguments with points. go back to your sorry pathetic life. dirk are allowed because its legal PERIOD.

are you 17 or 14 bro, this comment and your bio is a lil mismatched

[@ljwright9823]

Hi coach my name is LJ seems you have a lot of haters attended your videos. I guess the haters are the ones that don't see the point or probably never played. I like your videos they help out a lot and they also help out with your basics or take you back to the basics. So keep put videos out they're helping someone. Can you put out a defensive video like the points to watch for Center Mass is what I was always told the sternum area or whichever hand the Handler is you try to put your face or head on the line of your armpit. And I think a defense of video would be great for today's game. Since no one seen to play it or know how to guard a ball-handler.

Causes of a flat step-back-fade shot: In order to add power and most of your kinetic chain to the floor being literally taken out from under you, people with weaker upper bodies especially will have to cheat more to get the power they need from their shot. These kinetic compromises will get you more power, but lower your arc, and therefore mandate a faster throw (meaning bouncing off the rim will not only happen more often, but the bounces will be higher also). The kinetic compromises to look for are these 1. Shoulders forward: Throwing your shoulders farther forward will give you more power... but at high cost. First of all, this will lower your arc, second it will make your release time longer (therefore you're easier to block). It will lower your release point, and lastly, since you're already stepping back, your shoulders are already staggered... pushing them forward will put uneven pressure on your stroke (since one shoulder presses into your chest, but the other one is basically unobstructive. 2. Head forward: Most people will also naturally keep their head forward. Doing this will not only encourage you moving your shoulders forward (bad for the reasons above) but it will also encourage a bend at the buttocks, knees, and curve of the back (which all take power out of your shot... and encourage cheated form such as shoulders forward) 3. Jumping too high/far on the fade. The harder you jump away from your shot, the more power your stroke has to compensate for... and will therefore encourage poor form. Try getting away with more of a fall-back shot at first where you just lean back until you are about to need to bring back a foot for balance to catch yourself, and that is about the point where you should hop. Fading away is to help keep the defender from swatting you, but you also have to keep the shot reliable. You have to know your limits before you take the shot... and you have to trust your decision. If you have a little space or your defender is on their heels... a little fade goes a long way. If your defender is in your face and you think you have to fade a long way to get the shot off... you should be either using other tactics to gain space or passing to a teammate. So... when learning a step-back-fade shot (similar to a Dirk special) keep these 4 keys in mind in order to ensure a consistent and high arcing shot. 1. Shoulders back 2. head back 3. back straight 4. small hop If this causes your shot to be drastically short, you need to A: get some upper body strength B:only use this shot closer to the basket If this causes your shot to be... just generally off, that's natural. It's a whole new form and it can take some time until you develop the muscle memory.

[@rodgersalm4494]

Love dr dish system

[@cptfwiffo]

this is footwork for guards in the post. centres ripping the ball are asking for turnovers. centres want to keep the ball out of the hands of little guys. also, the moves seen simple. when you make the move... watch the pivot. traveling is really easily made... as can be seen in this video. dont hop out of the jab, it is quicker and easier. and illegal

[@ogmangler8820]

Yea...but he mentions high rip vs low rip.
