Hi I'm Coach Collin Castellaw and this is the Rocker Step move #1.
Rocker step move #1 is a live ball move that you use when you still have your dribble available
after catching a pass.
So it starts by catching the pass in triple threat.
Where you can shoot, dribble, or pass out of it right here in your shooting pocket.
With the rocker step all you do is you first give a jab step forward.
So think about if your defenders in front of you and you give a jab they are probably
going to drop one foot to get ready to move with ya.
Now the key to the rocker step is as you do your first jab forward you want to keep your
back leg locked and loaded.
You don't want is straight like that you want it nice and bent locked and loaded so you
can spring off of it and you can spring quickly.
because what's going to happen is as you jab and your defender backs slightly you are going
to raise up keeping that back leg loaded most likely your defenders foot will start coming
back forward.
As their foot starts coming forward that's when you spring of your back foot exploding
to get your hips by their hips for an easy look.
The first thing that you want to do is make sure that you catch in triple threat.
This allows you to take what the defender gives you.
Next you want to give a hard jab step at your defender to try to get them to drop one foot.
make sure your back leg is loaded so you can spring off of it as soon as your defender
starts to bring their foot forward.
Then explode off your back foot to get your hips by theirs.
Now let's check out Jeremy Lin do it.
So Jeremy starts by by giving a small jab step as he does Russell Westbrook jumps up
expecting the high screen.
Notice that after his first step Jeremy's hips are clearly past Russell Westbrook's
because he kept his back leg loaded.
