TH, are these the two comments that you're referring to in my 0 for 2? I don't see how you can argue with either of them.

The first comment was simply meant to point out that you can't jump while you're already in the air. The jump stop starts by jumping off of one foot while in possession of the ball.

The second comment is absolutely true, isn't it? Once you complete your jump stop (land on one foot, jump, alight on two feet simultaneously) you cannot pivot on either foot.

Where did I go wrong?
