Yep. One of the reasons this is complicated is that the "jump stop" as taught in many basketball programs is simply landing on both feet simultaneously. Meanwhile, the "Jump Stop" as defined includes jumping off one foot
after the ball has been gathered, then landing on both feet simultaneously.
Thanks for pointing that out, bob.
