Video Transcript

"My name's Ritchie Greer, and I'm with Expert Village. Like to introduce Wes. Wes, come on out here. Wes is our defender. By using this move, dribbling between the legs, I was able to get past your defender. Now, how do you do that? First of all, if you're not an advanced dribbler, you definitely need to practice as far as using -- just stand in place and do this. And once you feel comfortable with that, then you can start with a slow pace and start running. Now, once you're able to implement this into your game, this right here will help you get past the defender. Why do we want to use this move? Well, simply because if I dribble in front of him, he has a good chance of stealing the ball. Now, if I want to change directions with the ball, without him stealing it, what I'll do is I'll take the ball and dribble it between my legs, switch my direction, and my leg is here to where it's blocking him from taking the ball from us. Now, stay with us and we're going to go to other advanced dribbling and shooting techniques."
