I used to take it a step forward and go all the way down to the ground and hold my body up. Made everybody fall on the ground or stumble backwards. Soon as you shake right to seem to go right take the ball and throw it to the left and no one can guard it. If you got hip to it just keep going right. Unguardable
@xxCasanova98xx11 жыл бұрын
Exactly! All Iverson did after they started coming down on his move was be more careful at the moment of extension and explosion, so his hand would be on the top/side of the ball.

In the book PERSONAL FOUL written by the ref who was sent to jail he explains why the started calling that on the crossover. He said AI said something to him or some other ref and they decided to pay him back by calling that everytime he tried to crossover.

In a world full of big men, this little guy found a move that worked for him ( the killer crossover ). So what if he carried the ball, he was 165 pounds soaking wet, with all these tall guys in the NBA they're crying about a small guy finding something that works for him and making a name for himself. GOOD FOR YOU ALLEN IVERSON!!!

I have looked at the official nba rule book and it appears iverson’s rookie crossover is like a reverse situation of harden’s double step back (less scummy move though). The move is legal, but iverson did do it illegally occasionally. But whereas harden does the double step back wrong sometimes, he isn’t called for it. Iverson got called for it no matter what because the ref’s misunderstood what he was doing. Let me explain the official carry rule. It states, in the official rule book, “A player who is dribbling may not put any part of his hand under the ball and (1) carry it from one point to another or (2) bring it to a pause and then continue to dribble again”. The key word is under the ball. 90 percent of the time, Iverson had his hand on the side of the ball, parallel to the floor, where it would briefly rest. This is why he was called mainly called for a palming violation. And in his George Town clips he palmed a lot for sure. But in the nba he was legally doing it for the most part. For those who think it is impossible to do this move without palming or carrying, that is not true. I can’t palm a basketball but I can do this cross. Essentially, you need to dribble the ball high enough to the point where it is up to your shoulders, and allow your wrist to support the ball briefly while it spins on the side of your hand. If you are doing it correct, it should be falling straight down when you fail the move, not underneath your hand. Iverson’s hands were big enough to the point where he could control the ball without needing to palm on this move. Plus his hands and wrists let the ball rest on the side of his hand much longer than someone who has smaller hands. And his long arms made the move look extremely illegal. If you are trying to learn this move, but have smaller hands, do not expect to be able to rest the ball as long as Iverson is able to. Otherwise you will probably end up carrying. I believe the real reason it got banned was because so many coaches and players complained about the move, and iverson got in a rift with some refs. Iverson was ahead of his time and it confused players and refs. Not to mention I’m sure MJ was pissed and asked for it to be banned, considering it wouldn’t be the first time he bitched for rule changes. Technically, this move could still legally be done in todays nba since it appears they never actually changed the rules for this cross to be illegal. I don’t think it will ever be as effective as it was with iverson though. He had speed, body control, and a crazy body composition that we have yet to see again in the nba level.

I think it's just Iversons preference to lead with the left to the right in his crossover, it has nothing to do with which lead hand the defenders are. I think with Iversons skills back then he'd do the same thing going from right to left just maybe not as good as left to right.
