You are helping out a lot of future nba players, and so much more respect for how unselfish you are to share all of this, sharing what you know for others to use at a young age that you weren’t able to know at that age.

    Dude you never stop amazing me man! I’m a natural two foot jumper and always tried to learn 1-2 because it’s what I see others do but now I see that I was correct when I felt more control and versatility in my finishes plus it keeps me out my head of counting steps and finding a rhythm it’s straight up and decide with my hands.

    Maybe it's just me but I feel like the two-foot finish (with the jump stop) sort of died out for a while in college and NBA. Like from 2008-2019 ish. But I see it coming back. You have so many more options with a jump stop two-foot finish. With one foot, you're committed...whatever happens happens and is based on a guess.

    I love it! sound advice, and very well crafted video. But you should touch on why this skill is underutilized, or at least ask the questions. You said it - it's not as fast. You meant it as a good thing, which it is at times. But you don't always have that extra bit in the highest levels. You see Marcus Smart having a hard time with finishing for his reliance on two-foot finishes. Donoven Mitchell added one-foot finishes right before he got in the league and it made a world of difference for his game. You need both, and you need to know when to use which.

  • @ibelieveicansoar
    @ibelieveicansoar 4 роки тому

    Two foot landing in traffic is also best because if you sense any disturbance under one foot, you can quickly shift your body weight to land with most of it on your other foot, avoiding or lessening an ankle injury.

I’m long and lanky so that’d be helpful for me lol. There are a lot of kids like me who are more like KD with quick 1-2 dribble pull-ups, crossover pulls, drives and all, so if you could make that video, it would be amazing.
    Again, you’re awesome!

    If only derrick rose saw a video like this in 2008-11 . After his injuries he started playing more controlled and using the two foot finishes alot more . When he was young he would always jump or land on one foot he even said himself that he was so reckless and not smart when he was young . Young players should take note of this especially zion . Your right too alot of players get injured cause of one foot finishes .

    0:46 I always want to do this kind of layup but it feels so weird. I have to push the inside leg and rotate outward like an appoarch jump in order to jump high but then I have to rotate my body toward the rim during fininsh to avoid block. If I don't rotate outward I will jump very low. Can someone explain how to do this kind of layup?
