Any Basketball Player Can BREAK ANKLES if They Do This Right | ULTIMATE CROSSOVER BREAKDOWN!

What's going on ILB Elite Family, Coach Marcus Hodges here, and today I want to talk to you guys about the ultimate crossover. When I think about crossover, I for sure think about Allen Iverson, one of my favorite players. When him and Michael Jordan were in that iso situation at the top of the key, and he hits him with that left to right once, and then he hits him with that hard left to right again to knock down the shot. So we might not get all the way in detail with the Allen Iverson crossover, but we want to help you guys have the ultimate crossover from right to left or left to right, something you don't want to miss. So Sam, we're going to warm up. I want to just kind of work on your crossover a little bit. So dealing with your crossover is going to be a lot dealing with your timing, right? So right now we're going to talk about dribble timing. Also to get you loose, I want one to two dribbles, and I want to focus on back to front. But as you're doing that, we're just going to go down the court. So we'll go one, back front, one, back front. So it's almost like you're dropping one dribble in between. Make sure your feet aren't hitting at the exact same time. I just want that back to front. We'll go down right and come back left. There we go. Good. There we go. Good. When we go left hand, I want you to make sure you go like this. Pull the ball to your pocket. So when you go, this ball, instead of being dribbled here, pull it back as you're going down. Pull that ball back to your pocket. Left hand going down. There we go. Uh-huh. Good timing. Good. Uh-huh. Next, we're going right here. So same thing. When I go, you can go one to two dribbles, however you want. Now I'm going back, front, and when I cross, I'm just stepping that foot into space. So one to two dribbles, back front cross, relax, relax, back front cross, relax. I want every time, try to snap that foot right into space. Make sense? Let's get it right here, about 20 seconds. There we go. Good. Hard cross. Good. Come on. Stay with it. Good. Snap it. There we go. All right. For this next crossover, as you're almost like walking into space, as I see my defender, I will dribble, and I'll step, and then I'll kind of land in that same sense we worked on. Now when I'm here, I want everything to look like I'm going right. I want crossover, and when I cross them all over, that right foot's going to follow. So I'll go right, left, immediately behind the back, kind of retreat back to that space. Just give me three to four reps right to left, and then three to four left to right. Cross. Good. There we go. Dribble. Good timing. Good. Stay with it. All about timing. Inside foot. Good. Give me one more right to left. Good. One more right to left. Tap. Hard cross. Good. Now left to right. Same thing. Snap. Cross. There we go. Good. Sell it. There we go. Way to open up. Good. One more, T. Right before you cross, pause for me. Right before you cross. Pause right there. Go one more time. One more time. When you hear me say pause, just try to pause. Three, two. Pause right there. Boom. So as we see, get back. Look how wide his stance is. So right now, T's imagining a defender is probably guarding him like this. This foot is almost outside of my frame, and also this foot is outside of my frame. So when we're working on becoming an elite crossover type of player, a lot of players get skinny. And then when I cross here, I either have to adjust here, or this foot's got to go outside. So every time when you're at home working on this crossover, make sure if I were to pause right here, I'm in this wide, exaggerated stance where it looks like I'm going left, and then cross the ball back over right. When I think about crossover, I'm also thinking about an in-and-out cross. So now, this is going to be important with your timing as well. When I go in, boom, I step with that foot, and notice that ball's acting like I'm pushing that direction. So I go in and out, and I'm almost right back in that drop situation that I had you cross in. So right now, I'm just one, two, and relax. One, two, relax. I'm turning that ball. Right now, we're just focusing on the in-and-out, but it's all about levels. The in-and-out's got to be good before we cross. One, two. Good. There we go. Uh-huh. Stay with it. Big in-and-out. Good. Two more. Two more for me. Two more. Good. Last one. Nice. Same thing, left side. Don't step. Ask for it now. You're good. Stop that foot. Left foot down. Quick in-and-out. Boom. Right there. Not bad. Two more. Don't go ask for it now. So when you go, do in-and-out again. Do it. Boom. Good. Just think. Let that foot go outside. Yeah. Give me two more. I'm right here in front now. Quick. There we go. One more. There we go. All right. Now, just add in-and-out. Now we're going to add the cross. So now I'm going here. Left, right. Setting it up. Now I'm going to cross over. Same thing we had you on earlier. I cross and behind the back, but I automatically want you to go switching back. So we're ultimately going left and right. Boom. Then I go right to my other hand. In-and-out. Really snap that cross over hard. Shift. Use your speed. There we go. Three more. Shift. Good. Two more. Finish with that left. Finish with the left. Behind. Last one right here. Left hand. Moneybags. Good. Anything you want to get better at, you've got to work on it. You've really got to work on the foundation with my footwork, with my timing, also making sure I'm selling these moves. Once you get the foundation down, now we've got to be able to add the shot. So now, one thing from the last trick, we're going to add our shot now. Now with our crossover, we're going to get into our drop cross. So being able to have a drop cross means ultimately I'm keeping my space. I can cross and go forward. I can take that step and fall forward. I might not always have that space, so I want to keep my space. What's going to hold me accountable is this black line. So when I go right now, I'm going to drop. That right foot's going to be almost right on the black line, and now we're creating this lateral space. So when I cross that defender up, let's say he moves a little right, I'm going here, right left. I haven't gone forward. I'm not in the paint. I'm still right by the nail, and I'm knocking it down. Let's go three makes right to left, three makes left to right. Cross. Perfect. Good T. Right back. Drop. Good feet. Good T. Another one. Good. Bang, bang. Drop. One, two. Good. Tough pick up, too. One, two. Bang, bang. Good. One more. One, two. Bang, bang. Perfect. My man. My man Semi went three for three, or three for three on both sides, six for six. That was lateral space. Now we're going downhill. As you see, we're only about 15 feet away. Right now we're still warming up. As he gets into his drop cross, now he's going to go forward. So my man's already hot. We'll go from the high school three-point line right now, have that drop cross. Now he's actually going forward, all right? So now he's able to cross that defender up, and he's getting by that defender, knocking it down. So notice now he's going directly downhill, right into his cross, knocking the shot down. Also, when he crosses the ball over, he's crossing pick up. No extra dribbles needed. He's covering space with his feet. Downhill. One, two. Straight up and down. Good, T. One more. Good. Up. Nice. Left to right. Same thing. Get downhill. Notice how wide his feet are. Wide feet. Up. Good, Sam. Another type of cross. I want to give you guys multiple options. So now it's going to be the scissor cross. When you dribble, the ball's in my right hand, naturally you're going to dribble on your inside foot. We call that a dribble step. So now I'm going to have my guy, Sam, get into his scissor cross. So right now, Sam's going dribble inside, and then as it looks like he's about to dribble inside again, that foot's going to scissor right under his hips, and he's going to go into his crossover. So it's here. It's one, boom, cross. He can take that one extra dribble if he needs to, or you can go right back into that one dribble pull-up as before. One, boom. Good cross. Good space. Knockdown. Nice, Sam. Same way. Hide it now. Hide it. Don't exaggerate it as much. Good. One. Catch me. Good. Yes. Good. That'll catch him sleeping. Good, Sam. So now we're going right to our in-and-out crossover. I want you kind of going now right at the defender's chest. So now I'm going about 20% downhill. Now as I go, same footwork we worked on. Left to right. I want that tight cross. And now I want you kind of running to open space for that shot. Right when you get into it, back pedal back. Now we're going to go top of the key. Now I want left hand. In-and-out cross. So now you're shooting the ball from two different angles, working on right and left. Back pedal back. I'll get the ball right back to you. Shift. Good. Knock it down. You're good. Come on. Good. Tight right here. Tight in-and-out. Quick. Pop. Stay with it. Yep. Big shot. So that was our in-and-out. It's going to be the exact same move. Chris Paul does this a lot. Just going to be a little deceptive. So right now as I'm going, ball's in my outside hand, closer to the sideline. I'm just going to have a casual float dribble from right to left. As it floats from left to right, it's casual, it's relaxed, but as soon as that ball gets where you want it, now I'm aggressive. In-and-out cross. I want everything an extra dribble. So as Sim comes down, he's here, relaxed, and now it's boom. Tight cross. Good. Notice how Sim's going downhill. Look. He's attacking downhill. Right? Right at that defender. Boom. Straight up. Good. One more. Shift. Knock it down. Good. Last three other sides, Sim. Coming down casual. You see an opportunity. Boom. Up. Good. Working on shots right now. Working on selling moves. Also working on a little bit of pace. Coming down. Shift. Get it up. Good. Game time right here. If you hit it, knock it down. Shift. Game time. Good.
