to me & how 5 steps = 2 steps


I have never heard of the "crab dribble", although it sounds like a pretty painful STD

A crab dribble is something that centers and power forwards use more than any other position. There is NO FORM OF DRIBBLE that allows you to take three steps though. LeBron is stupid.

Lebron is a little bitch, so he had to make up something and say he did a crab dribble to make him look less like a bitch. Didn't work.

I love that even though my Wiz are beyond the gutter of garbage they still seem to f with lebron james. Hes just a little whinny prick who thinks the league should hand him a title... a crab dribble is a funny way to say I walked.

He's full of shite, there was a crab dribble sure, but there was also a travel. The two had nothing to do with each other.

a crab dribble is used when you are posted up with your back to the basket, you bounce the ball between your feet with both hands straight down (and your elbows out to protect the ball) and either go straight up or drop step to the basket

you don't crab dribble when you are already dribbling the ball, it would a double dribble violation and a crab dribble has absolutely nothing to do with lebron's travelling. Frankly this is the kind of ignorance that comes from having a shitty high school coach and no college experience. I doubt any Cavs assts are working on Lebron's game one on one and instructing him in archaic terminology like "crab dribble." That is something he heard somewhere and used it incorrectly

He does that shite every game, he's just mad that they finally called it. You should have heard Bob Ryans dumbass today on PTI talk about how he only took two steps.

The closing seconds of the cavs wizards game the other day, Lebron drove to the basket and took like 4 steps and the refs called travel. Lebron said that he didnt and blah blah. It was an obvious travel
