Agreed, people aren't watching the game to see the refs call travels. If it's not blatant, it shouldn't be called. That being said - players should still clean up their footwork and do things legally.
Can you make a finishing workout? Just compile some at talk to us, it's better than those people who demonstrate, because we understand you more and your teaching, a finishing work out plss, especially when someone is waiting in the paint
@@CoachFrikki I've just watched your videos for a few days and even though the finishing break down is just a single finish or just a one move it helped me, but a finishing work out would help me much more than one break down, thank man
Which is funny because those same guys get basic traveling violations wrong all the time. They definitely don't understand initiating contact rules. There will always be wanna be lockdown defenders at parks who only play defense with their upperbodies.
3:53 if you watch it in 0.25 speed, you'll see there is a travel. His hand was still touching the ball, but the pivot foot had released off the ground.
Why is 4:25 a travel? His feet are cut off in the video, but it seems that his right foot is midair as he catches the ball. So as he plants his right foot, he should have 2 more steps. He shifts his left foot (step #1). Then he lifts his right foot as he starts dribbling, so he doesn't even take step #2. Am I misunderstanding the rules?
We can't say for sure with his feet out of the video. I think it was a travel but a very close call. If both feet are on the floor while the catch happens then it's a travel. If one foot is one the floor while the catch happens then it's a travel if he takes off w/ the dribble. If both feet are in the air while the catch happens it's legal, and you can drive out of it.
not a helpful comment lol. I think this video is outstanding and his categorization of issues is really valuable. He's showing pros making these mistakes, after all-- so it isn't like this is remedial content. It can be tricky.
@@martinhodell8465 Great response. A lot of high school and other lower level coaches never break down why the ref will whistle them for travel. Landing on two feet off the catch after hopping towards the ball is a great way to avoid traveling because you can choose which pivot foot you want to establish. Also using a negative step after this, which is basically jabbing the opposite foot backwards because it allows you to keep the established pivot foot still long enough for you to complete your dribble before moving it. That backwards jab with your left foot when your right foot is your pivot saves traveling violations if you catch the ball in a jump stop motion. This is definitely a tricky slope because people don't know what to look for that leads to travel and how to avoid it. Great video
Haha, the last one got me - "when you're open just shoot the damn ball" as if it easy to shoot threes. I would better pass the ball to someone who CAN shoot the 3pts. Nevertheless, your content is great and I love it.
Are you talking about a) before starting your dribble or b) after starting your dribble? If a) the ball has gotta have left your hand before your pivot foot leaves the ground. If b) not a travel, you can't travel while dribbling.
After this video I dont know what a travel is anymore, I prefer when they don't get called.

@@CoachFrikki so that the left foot is always be the pivot foot either you drive left or right?
@@ronalddave3200 I recommend a permanent left foot pivot foot for right handed players.
Release the ball before lifting. That's it (in simple cases)
Best basketball channel on TH-cam. Thanks Coach!
Glad you like it! Let me know if you have a video suggestion!

Different scenario finishing
Good idea - that's definitely something I wanna do soon.

i really appreciate how you explain why these are travel calls. i woulda let so many of these go. these calls would start fights at park.

Most common travel by far is: drive right off left pivot foot
so thus is why a lot of ppl stress jump stops...makes you kand on 2 feet then either can be your pivot...them fundamentals man!!!
amazing video Coach!
Thanks coach. Refs in Europe love calling these travels - we gotta do a better job teaching proper footwork to our players.
Love this guy
Best channel. Binge watching every video
great vid as always coach! how about how not to draw a foul on defense?
Thank you bro! Some defensive videos on the way - will definitely touch on how to avoid fouling.
Amazing channel

You're not wrong, but this happens on every single strongside rip through. If it would get called then nobody would play or watch basketball.
So the left foot is always be the pivot foot either you drive left or right?
Una excelente lavada de cerebro. Thanks coach!
What?
How?
great. now i don't know how to play anymore. hahaha

If both feet are on the floor while the catch happens then it's a travel.
If one foot is one the floor while the catch happens then it's a travel if he takes off w/ the dribble.
If both feet are in the air while the catch happens it's legal, and you can drive out of it.
🔥
This is a big problem along the league
I didn't know this. It seems to me that the NBA referees do call traveling violations.
just not on stars lol
How to never travel again: don't travel lol
Anyways good examples

Who is that at the 1:33 mark
This video just made me realize how good refs are at basketball lol

do a shot fake hesi breakdown
That's definitely on the menu.
But about the pivot thing didn't they take 2 steps
bro whenever i do a rip through they call a travel
😍😍😍
The rules has chanved now...
5:02
im more confused lol....so i thought if i bounce the ball in between each step im not traveling right?
Are you talking about a) before starting your dribble or b) after starting your dribble?
If a) the ball has gotta have left your hand before your pivot foot leaves the ground. If b) not a travel, you can't travel while dribbling.
naah those moves are either way you travel or not those moves are simutaneously hit ball first before the move
You guys travel?
First hhahahhaa
