Only if you turn your shoulders, costing you some deception.

Probably good to be able to do it several ways. As runners get used to one, try the other.

But, IMHO, the most effective is full deception.

The "defense" against the move, with non base stealing runners is to tell them "don't take your eyes off the pitcher until the ball is released." However, many hear it yet take their eyes off before release. And, this move down the 45 line with leg, weight, shoulders is super deceptive and will cause the runner to fail his instructions.
