James Harden perfected the one of the more devastating moves in all of basketball with his signature step-back (that sure looks like a travel). But don’t think that the MVP is fine with that single move — not at all.
Harden enlisted help from the internet’s top viral hoopers in hopes of learning a new move to test out on NBA opponents. YouTube star Tristan Jass (known for crazy layups and crossing up a teacher), streetball star Bone Collector and AND1 Mixtape legend The Professor all flew to Houston for a session with Harden.
That was where The Professor taught Harden a ridiculous behind-the-back nutmeg that could very well make an appearance in a game.
The Professor walked Harden through the move with Bone Collector defending.
After a couple tries, Harden successfully pulled the dribble combination off. In case you needed any indication as to how good NBA players are, all it took was a couple tips and Harden had the complicated dribble move down pat.
Just ignore the likely blown layup.
If Harden could find a way to bring that move into an actual game, NBA Twitter would just about explode.
