In high school and college, only the first foot may be used as the pivot in that situation. Also, the NBA's two-count allows a player to pivot after completing a legal jump stop (jump off one foot and land on two feet simultaneously). In NCAA and NFHS, there is no pivot foot after completing a legal jump stop.
I open a window, do some other stuff, finish my reply and post it only to see that Scrapper stole the show.
