was looking for an explanation of the term, and this is exactly what i wanted!!! no long talks, no unnecessary explanations. just everything important packed into a video less than a minute long ! perfect! i would give two thumbs up if i could!
Dang, the simplest but clearest demonstration ever. I’ve learned for years watching ballers do it but never got it figured out but you just made it straight.
That’s because it is a travel. Plain and simple. Just another bastardization of the rules and a further reason to not give a rat’s rump about basketball ever again.
@macsloan58. It's just absolutely amazing to me how self assured and how proud of yourself for being above the modern game you are, while being so incredibly and blatantly wrong at the same time. It's kinda pathetic. This is not REMOTELY a travel. It's literally two steps. It's been legal forever. This is not "new." It has just become more common with more access to video and training and more and more players picking up the move. You can't describe WHY it's a travel, because it's not. This isn't like the gather step that can be differently called in the NBA vs highschool. This isn't like when Harden abuses that gather step rule and takes 3 or 4 actual steps. The eurostep is literally just 2 steps, like every layup ever. It requires just a tiny bit of athletic coordination to step slightly sideways instead of straight ahead on both steps. I don't know if you're brain can't comprehend this, but apparently not.
lmao the volume and reverb on this reminded of this one video where Quentin Tarantino sounded like hes yelling down a hallway about the Joker's game show scene. youll know the one if he says the words "ON A PROFOUND LEVEL" lol.
Travel...the key is to determine when the pivot foot is established and understand that the pivot foot, once established, if lifted can't be returned to the floor. The pivot foot is the foot that is in contact with the court when the dribble ends...very easy to see in slow motion that the euro step is a travel.. The only way that I can see it not being a travel is if a player was able to somehow levitate and have no feet on the ground when the dribble ends.. i.e. when the ball is gathered..that way the next foot to touch would be the pivot foot.
@@peytonskinner9892 There is nothing regarding “two steps” in high school basketball. It all depends on the pivot foot and the inability to return to the court the pivot foot once lifted. A travel occurs when the pivot foot returns to the floor. The big issue from an officiating standpoint is that there isn’t consensus on when the dribble ends as some think one way and other officials another.
@@andrewd.jamison6653 i guess this is the thing I learnt for today. I also do believe they were doing it wrong. the pivot foot shouldn't be returned to the ground until you dunk/layup. So unless I'm wrong you should be able to jump with one foot and no travel should be called.
You are factually wrong lol. Nowhere in the rulebook does it say a pivot foot cannot be lifted when passing and shooting. Just that it cannot be returned to the ground BEFORE passing or shooting. Because that would be a 3rd step. You absolutely get TWO steps after picking up the dribble in highschool. What you don't get, is the same gather step rule that you get in the NBA. You don't REMOTELY understand the basic rules of either league. You are repeating arguments you have vaguely heard, and you don't even comprehend them or where they come from or the logic of them. A two step layup in highschool is legal, because you get two steps after picking up the ball. The first step to contact the floor after picking up the ball, IS THE DWSIGNATED PIVOT foot. His right foot in this video is the technical pivot foot/step1. He then picks it up (WHICH LEGAL) and jumps onto his non pivot foot/his second step. Then shoots before his step 1 comes down (which would be a step 3, and counted as a travel.) This is legal. This is not a "switching" of pivot feet. His one and only pivot foot on the video, is his right foot. Stepping onto the other foot is not a switching of the pivot foot. As you are only allowed to jump off the 2nd foot. NOT pivot off of it. A "pivot foot" is NOT defined as a foot "contacting the ground." It is defined as the FIRST foot to contact the ball after picking up a dribble or catching a pass. There is NO rule against picking up the pivot foot and standing only on you're non pivot foot. That's two steps. Perfectly legal. You just can't put the pivot back DOWN before passing or shooting. And you can't pivot on that second foot. Only stand, balance, and jump off of it. You don't even understand what a PIVOT IS apparently. Rule 4. Section 44. Articles 2 and 3.
What the hell is 1/2 step? Does the foot not completely plant on the ground? Are you levitating? I'm very confused. I always thought a layup was two steps.
Read the rule book - it notes the 1 1/2 step. Watch somebody do a layup correctly - most likely in the women’s NCAA games. They are the only ones who can seem to get it right. The player picks up the dribble between steps then gets one complete step to finish the move. Ask anybody who has played or coached correctly in the last 50 years and they will tell you that a layup is 1 1/2 steps. Hope that helps.
@@TheWingAnthony Been longer than that. The so called Euro step been in the league since 1990. It was guy who played for Golden State that did it all the time.

I only looked this up cause I keep hearing the word "eurostep" in rap songs.
I move through london with the eurostep
Drake brought me here 😂
Haha.. me too😹

It always looked like a travel to me but after seeing this video it's clear to me now what it is.
Real talk, I thought they were flagrantly travelin' for years. Only one yelling " traveling in the house"..
Coach sounds like Froggy fromLittle Rascals.
Lmaaaaooooo
thank u for this helpful video
lmao they always call me travel when i do that

if you do a gather before you’ll get called but if you only take 2 steps total then you should be fine

The euro step is easy to understand. So to me it seem like the Swing step is traveling that never gets called.

They should dunk the ball left handed after the Eurostep.
Dunking is a lot easier if you're running, very few players would be able to dunk with zero momentum off one leg.
That's just like a side-step in rugby league or rugby union.
That’s a euro step
@@lilstiles7930 That's a side step

I'm here because of fat perez
Looks legal to me but the NBA players will plant that first foot and then step across with two or sometimes three additional steps (Lebron)!

Well luckily the refs don't review shit
if you take the first step then gather the ball that should leave you with two steps right?
