Right Scrapper, that's all I was saying...
It's especially tough in 2 person (thank goodness I only have 6 of those assignments this season) it's close to impossible to rule correctly if you get blocked out on where the feet were when the dribble ended. I guess that's when the "no-call" is the best call. |

If it looks ugly then there is probably a reason & most probably the reason is that it was a travel.

I believe the legality of the "one two" stop depends on when the dribble was picked up. If the dribble is picked up with one foot still on the ground and that foot is used for the hop leading to the jump stop, pivoting is not allowed, and the sloppy "one two" landing would be considered a pivot. If the dribble is picked up with zero feet on the ground, the "one two" stop is allowed and the first foot that touches the floor is the pivot foot.
Please correct me if I'm wrong. I would use a rules reference but I am at work and don't have my book with me. I teach my kids to be deliberate and purposeful with their moves. The move they call a "pro hop" is the jump stop initiated with a foot on the ground, so they must land on two feet similtaneously and are not allowed to pivot upon landing. Good move, with restrictions upon landing. A more concerted effort to pick up the dribble while already in the air might not look as nice and takes a little more practice, but you have options to do other things upon landing. I also teach that disregard for the difference, or being sloppy with their moves, allows for an officials interpretation of what really happened versus what they thought they were trying to do. I have found that over the past few years, I have been yelling more at my players for being sloppy on their jump stops and rarely address officials over travelling calls other than to occasionally ask which type of travel has been committed. In turn, my teams travelling violations have gone done drastically. I've actually been warned by a ref for yelling at my player "you're being sloppy, you just travelled" on a play where they scored a layup and the ref didn't call the travel (not on a jumpstop, but on a first step extend dribble where the player did not release the ball til 3 steps were taken). just a coaches perspective on travelling. but coaches are worthless scumbags around these parts, so my 2 cents is probably more like a wooden peso. |
