Here is NBA rule XIII(d). 😂

d. If a player, with the ball in his possession, raises his pivot foot off the floor, he must pass or shoot before his pivot foot returns to the floor. If he drops the ball while in the air, he may not be the first to touch the ball.

I don’t think the refs read the rules. 😂

have you taken any dribbled before that? or did you catch the ball, and now you

Either of those.

PJMort

those are different scenarios though. From what I understand reading the rules

The poll was meant to be “after” you lift the pivot foot.

yeah, which implies that you can legally dribble out of a pivot

Yep. One of Larry Bird's best move came from that. Jab step

Once your pivot foot is established it can only come up if

This is correct. Rule XIII(b)

This is incorrect. The pivot foot can come up with the other foot still on the

You're right. I think my error was in using the word simultaneously. Once your pivot foot comes up and your non-pivot

I’ve wondered that hat too.

BYUCLA

4/16/18 3:12pm

Yeah, the up and under is the move I was missing originally. It's okay as long as you do it in one continuous motion.

4/16/18 3:14pm

Is it in the rulebook that it has to be in one continuous motion?

Dirk Nowitzke made a living off that

To many refs call the step through traveling just because it looked different.

And one last question.

Yes, this is just a variation on the euro-step. BUT, you'll probably get called

Interestingly, the college rule book does NOT cover all the rules.

I'm pretty sure you're missing the option of a second dribble if you're moving

Horizontal movement? ✔️ Away from Basket? ✔️ Legal play? ✔️

RyneK

4/16/18 2:46pm

Well he definitely touched the ball with both hands while dribbling so double

"having established a pivot foot"

Hedonic Threadmill

rules disagree - once you have established a pivot foot, you cannot dribble

yes you can, as long as the ball leaves the hand before your pivot leaves the
