Unstoppable Move

Recently, James Harden’s step back became viral in NBA and ballers.  First, it became famous for questioning if it’s legal or illegal.  But today, it’s famous for unstoppable movement.  Step back shot is not easy to sink at beginning, but once you master it, it will be one of  the most effective skills to score.  However I started with Harden’s step back, it’s not the topic today since it’s easily become travel.  Today’s topic is about Dirk Nowitzki’s step back jumper.  His jumper is also unstoppable.  It’s been said that even though Yao Ming has Lebron’s vertical, it can’t be blocked.  Here is why, Dirk is 7ft and his loop is higher than others’ jumper, plus, he makes space with defender by using his leg.

Look at how he makes separation.  His height makes this shot unstoppable, but this is not the only for big man, actually it’s a great skill for small player in order to avoid getting blocked.  This is the thing, “closer you are to defender, more getting blocked, and more far you are, less getting blocked.”  Watch video below and learn how to do the Deadly step back!
