1) you may not start a lay-up from a stationary position: you must be moving. Lay-ups are often done straight from a dribble or running and catching a pass.
2) provided you are moving to begin with, you may take two steps after picking up the ball. These steps are used to get closer to the net. On the right side of the net, it is easiest to step with your right foot, followed by your left. It is the opposite for the left side.
3) once you have taken your maximum of 2 steps, you must shoot before landing or taking a third step. It is most efficient to shoot with the hand that corresponds to the side of the net you are on. It is also most effective when you shoot lightly off the square that is marked on the backboard.
