How Much Has Wade Popularized The Euro Step?
Ginobili was the first allstar to use it as a staple in his game. Wades' explosiveness (by Ginobilis' own admission)and length took the move to another level. Its practically made Wade even more unguardable than he was before.
I see more and more guys using the move now, such as:
Rondo
Westbrook
Monta Ellis
Eric Gordon
Even guys like Derozan and a few others that I can't remember right now (I even saw Derek Fisher stumble trying to do it on a fast break ). I really don't remember as much guys doing it as much in the past two seasons. Now although these guys aren't as good at it, I see it being used more and more.
Being that Wade has the most prolific use of the Euro step of all the elite players how influential has he been or has he been at all?

Is that the thing he does when he hops then takes two more steps before getting a phantom whistle? Or is that LeBron's "crab dribble"?
I mean seriously, you even said Ginoboli was the first to use it, and he's even European, yet it's all because of Wade that players used it now?
Heat homer much?

Wade didnt do anything for the euro step. However I think he did invent the spin travel.

Re: How Much Has Wade Popularized The Euro Step?
For the uneducated, the "Euro step" is the move where on the first step the player steps sideways rather than towards the basket, then veers back in on the second before laying it in

Ethnically no, but he did come from the Euroleague before joining the NBA.
So technically, I was right and wrong.

Maybe someone should inform Blake Griffin that this move exists

Euro Step is amazing... but the HOP STEP is the most effective move of all time. I used to use it everytime I played. Gets you to the rim and creates space between defenders in one swift maneuver.

Second half of his post was right, even though the first part was a troll. No reason to pass off his whole post as a troll since it includes information you don't like.

Ignorance is bliss. Manu's been using it before he even joined the NBA. He also played in the NBA year before Wade, and had already been using it. Manu started as a slasher, then developed his outside game later. Eurostep was always a big weapon for him.

it is actually hard to do for most people since they aren't NBA athletes.
