Fundamentals Of The Jab Step

Watch NBA Legend Shane Battier use the jab step to help keep the defense off balance.

[MrVolcomclassic]

This is great. I literally scored 6 more baskets because of this.

[paoloangelino]

Legend has it that Shane is still squashing that bug

[joeblow]

These jr NBA videos are great for beginners like my son, thanks for the video!

[zitroneeng]

Jesus Shane. What did that bug do to you?

[veerchasm]

What a great teacher, I loved Shane when he was on that Rockets team

[cjcomia]

The jab step is very effective, look at melo spamming it like its the kamehameha

[MerkhVision]

He did a great job explaining how and why to use this technique!

[jhoacoytabor]

Kobe is a great example of how to do a jab step

[Gustavete]

far from legends or not egos, it's clear that the NBA expertise Shane have could help him to be a great teacher

Wow. Im starting to unify all sport. A jabstep in basketball is basically a feint in boxing. Same thing. He doesnt react you can actually land it. He moves away, it allows you ro follow up with a diffèrent ranged attack. He moves in a ceetain way to défend, ir opens up a new angle for you to move in on him... Cool! Funny its called a Jab Step.

I like the way he reminds me of do not do it too quick for the Jab step which you will not be able to read the defender's mind.
But for me when I doing it too quick, the defender got even more confused what I gonna do. Which some how makes them scared of what I'm about to do and can't be able to react to my next move. In such case, I didn't even need to read their minds as I have already creat spaces for a jump shot or driving to the rim.
Therefore, I think I would try a combination of slow Jap and fast Jab randomly for each time depends on what I feel like to do, go slow to read defender's mind or go fast to creat mis-reaction to the defender. Let me try this tmr and see how it goes.

He learned With the Best, indeed, He eated that too Many Times from Kobe !!!

[AmountStax]

I'd like to see shane go into depth with on-ball 1v1 defense. He was an amazing defensive player. Really something lacking in today's game.

[wendellsloan]

Thank you Shane battier I will be squashing this is good coaching great job blessings 🙏.

[Inkredible]

The jab is deadly. Defense was clearly frightened of the guys driving ability. Got space to shoot.
