Hi I'm coach Collin Castellaw and welcome to shotmechanics.com and today we are going
to learn the Euro Step move.
The euro step is a great move and has really started to gain popularity in the last couple
of years made famous by guys like Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker um guys like that.
Basically the key to the Euro step is you are using a 1-2 step to go around your defender
instead of going by them.
Basically let's pretend our cones are the defender here and as I'm getting ready to
score I'm going to plant really hard towards the defender and then use a lateral step to
try to go by.
Now your second step does not necessarily want to be going forward because you want
to make sure you can go around your defender.
So you're planting in and then planting out on a lateral step to go by.
As you approach your defender you want to plant really hard on your inside foot.
Use a ball fake to really sell it.
Then use a long lateral step to step around your defender.
Then explode to finish the play.
Let's see how Dwyane Wade does it.
To really sell the move Dwyane shifts his shoulders slightly when he ball fakes.
THis opens the defenders stance allowing wade to step around his top foot.
