Great move and all but should it be illegal? I mean creating separation with your knee..that's like throwing an elbow isnt it?

Its not different than guys using the offhand to clear space when dribbling

How about Lebron's travel drives on like every single play he makes?

That's not throwing an elbow though.

Hitting a player should be illegal regardless of the limb used. That, however, is, nor should it be illegal. You can't enforce a rule that has a player raising their leg. :smh:
Unless you like nanny crybaby-excuses basketball.

It's not rebound-ball.

Probably should just make Dirk Nowitzki illegal, he's too good.

Decent college freshman
Re: Should Dirk Nowitzki's move be illegal?
Well...the thing about his shot is he's fading away. He has a right to his space and clearly has learned to utilize this to the fullest. How can it be an offensive foul if contact only occurs due to the defensive player invading established space? It's a very clean shot...granted...very difficult.

ehh it's more like putting his knee there to create spacing, he's not really kneeing him, it looks like the defender is leaning into the knee

this. that move does make it so he's virtually impossible to block though. guys D him up good but he still hits it. must be frustrating for defenders. it's hard enough he's 7 foot, lol. if you try to double, he can see it coming and pass

Hmm, in that sense elbows and knees can be used to set a pick too.

When a player is able to do a shot like that, there is really no defense that can stop the shot. It's a very hard shot to begin with, he goes up with just the force from one leg while fading away and banking it in. Now you want to remove the little seperation he got? Turk actully got pretty close to him, but not close enough to his face.
