This is truly amazing. The motion steps in between each dribble is rarely talked about. A lot of coaches told us to get the ball up the floor in 3 dribbles, but never showed us how to get the ball up the floor in 3 dribbles. The reason why guys have a difficult time improving their speed with the ball is because their motion steps in between each dribble is too short causing them to put the ball back on the floor too soon. This causes them to take way more dribbles than needed, making it impossible for them to cover a lot of ground. Many guys have the issue nearly dribbling and stepping at the same time, when the key should be to dribble then step as long as they can before the ball comes back into their hand then dribble again. Lastly, coaches have also taught that to get the ball up the court in as few dribbles as possible you should try to push the ball really far out in front of you. While that sounds like a great idea, it can lead to turnovers because the ball is too exposed to defenders and you can also lose control of the ball on your own by always trying to catch up to it. The ball should always be close to your body, but in a manner where it is ahead of you like your feet when taking long strides. If you push the ball, but take extremely small steps in between each dribble and the ball is tight to you, you're also going to turn it over a lot because the ball and your feet are in a position where they're both now behind the rest of your body. When you take short running steps you're almost position where you're body is carrying you as in your arms and chest area, rather than your legs and feet. Great video. This helped a ton.

if you are moving full court, switching the ball to each hand every few dribbles can help you get more motion steps. its kind of like resetting the ability to use it id say

[marieldamagon]

3:46 that is travelling isn't it?

[DonOneDetroit]

Damn. I’ve been trying to tell my oldest this one key trick that would change his entire game. The pocket dribble is essential to master for both the negative step and the motion dribble.

THAT IS INSANE HELPED SO MUCH ROAD TO 3K BOIS

[kidcurry]

Lol i already do all of this I guess i gotta practice my sprints 🤣

[rayuddin]

Aye bro I'd really appreciate it if you made a vid on the mechanics of a jumper. Like you break down other great players jump shots but I'm really struggling to make shots on an indoor gym. I can dribble, and take it to the rim but if I can begin to shoot off the dribble I'd increase my points by a lot please make sum for this great vid too this vid helped my dribbling today.

Great video. Also there is a concept that I learned that coaches don't teach for guys to get anywhere they want to get on the floor if they're struggling to get fast with the basketball. I think you should look into this concept and possibly talk about it as an alternative. This concept I am about to explain is used by James Harden, which is why he draws so many fouls and lives at the free throw line. Kyrie Irving uses it as well as Chris Paul. An awesome way for guys who don't have John Wall, Westbrook, or De Aaron Fox type speed to be able to get by defenders is by pinning a defender's arm down with your off hand and staying tight to him, which is executed by locking the shoulder of the arm that does not have the basketball with the defender's arm so he can't drop back open up his hips and follow you, and either completely cut you off or make a shot for you at the rim very difficult. When you drive past a guy always try to beat him by going through him, rather than around him. If a defender sticks his hand out and lets you go around that hand, you're actually giving him what he wants. Long linky athletic guards want you to drive around their hand so they can freely open up their hips and catch you from behind. But if you pin their arm down and stay tight to them even after you have passed them, locking the shoulder of your off arm with his shoulder located on the side of his body that you're attacking makes it difficult for him to use his length to stay with you because he can only move one side of his body. It's like a guy's right leg being chained to a door, but his left leg is free. Even though his left leg is free he still can't go anywhere because the right side of his body is stuck. The pin down move can prevent a possible hand check that a ref may fail to call, but it also negates length, athleticism, and strength. Remember if a defender tries to push back or you some how run him over it will be a defensive/blocking foul on him. This is also great to use against strong defenders who like to bump ball handlers everywhere they attempt to go to stay in front of offensive players.

Jp do a vis on off hand tricks, like the push of MJ vs Jazz in finals 6

[marcogiomanalo]

@JP productions how can I gain more ball control when running a fast break

[hp.basketball]

So you can how many steps you want with the ball on your hand ??

[mcmerry]

When i was a kid, we trained to pass the half court with 3 dribbles

[infinitystar]

Sometimes when I try to drive i just don't go as fast as when I usually run. I started to slow down and hesitant

[rhondalashae]

If you do a Motion Step can’t they call travel??

[dheerajkumar-ivbz]

I've been trying to find how to improve on my speed dribbles /dribbling on the move and I searched a lot of videos online on how to improve, I'm not finding a way to improve even though I've watch countless videos and I don't see practicing on the court with proper fundamentals wil work, please feel free to drop any suggestions or videos where everyone who is trying to improve on this certain skill can improve and take their game to the next level
