What are the methods and key points of the side sliding step in basketball movement techniques?

Sliding step: Sliding step can be divided into three types: side sliding step, forward sliding step and backward sliding step.

When turning forward with the defender's body as the axis, the inside player should stay close to the defender and rotate with the back heel on the side close to the end line as the axis, with the center of gravity tilted to the other side of the force application part. That is, "falling" towards Lanxia. Nearing complete loss of balance, shoulder and head first pass the defender, while simultaneously stepping with the outside foot in the direction of the turn.

The step-back action with your back to the basket:

The step-back action includes the opposite side of the end and the side of the restricted area. If you take a step back, if you step back to the side of the end line, you can cross-step and dribble if necessary to end up with a squeeze to resist a strong shot; if you take a step to the side of the restricted area, you can also slide and dribble with a hook if necessary. End with a field goal or turnaround jumper. Inside players must grasp the timing of taking a step back.

The step-back action should be started before catching the ball. When taking a step-back, you should feel that the step-back foot has caught the defender's back foot, and the elbow joint on the side of the step-back direction is stuck. Behind the defender, you can feel through your elbow joint whether your step back has thrown the defender behind you.
