Michael Jordan - Offensive Moves




Widely regarded as the greatest player ever to play the game of basketball, Michael Jordan combined phenomenal athleticism with fundamental soundness and an unquenchable competitive desire.

In the video below Michael Jordan demonstrates a variety of fundamental offensive moves including the jab step and shot fake.

He also talks about how to strategically attack defenders.  Not just catching and going, but facing the basket, checking the defender's stance, formulating a plan of attack, getting the defender off balance or out of position. 

He specifically highlights the importance of being able to go both left and right!  "Never limit your options."
