The Jordan Crossover

Catches the defender slippin and might make him fall. The same crossover that Michael Jordan pulled off on Bryon Russell and made him fall in the 1998 championship game. Dwyane Wade also hit Eric Snow’s sorry ass wit it and dropped him to the deck.

Instructions

it’s really simple. All you do is drive really hard to the right and make sure that u have the defender’s momentum with u and crossover. If you got the defender to carry all his momentum to the right and u crossed back over to the left, he will get faked out. He might slip of fall, depending on how good ur footwork is and how quick u are.

Variations

Good footwork.

Skills

Good footwork.

You are horrible and this drill is horrible. Dont practice doing the wrong things. All you are saying to do is crossover. Actually Jordan pushed off of Russell a bit to make him fall (CHECK THE VIDEO). If you practice trying to embarass people you are practicing the wrong things. Practice shooting midrange jump shots, or weak hand passing.

James, even though you disagree with Malcolm, you shouldn’t call him names.

This is probably the video you are talking about, reenacted here

That being said, I completely agree with you that everyone should focus on practicing their own skills instead of showing up others.

Nice if you can pull it off, which most kids can’t. MJ did a major push off on B Russ. Would not recommend any young person practice this, rather work on ballhandling and passing.
