We are breaking down the crossover step in today’s BXB Fundies. The crossover step is used as a counter, (after blowing by in one direction and getting past our defenders they will adjust and start to cut off that angle), to go opposite of the direction we just jabbed. The best way to use this move is by first establishing you can blow by in one direction to make the defense become honest on committing to a side. Secondly you can use it against a closeout which will open up an opportunity to drive or shoot. Attack the closeout with a jab and crossover step usually works simply due to the defense reacting too quickly in an undisciplined fashion. Some tips to make sure this move is highly effective. Angles: Make sure we either jab in the direction of the backboard or the rim. By having our jab foot in line with these markers we are lined up perfectly to sell the move and also get down hill. Deception: Making sure we sell our eyes head and shoulders in one direction before going opposite. This ensures us selling the move one way so the defender can react to it, which in turns results in a us crossover stepping opposite. #bxbperformance #bxbperformancetraining #basketballbreakdown #basketballfundamentals #basketballskillstraining #basketballtraining #crossoverstep https://www.instagram.com/p/CT2sOWLvW0s/?utm_medium=tumblr
