To clarify the U.S. Navy term mentioned in another definition, it specifically referred to the ship's shafts/screws 'turning' and the boilers 'burning' and the phrase is in fact used (even though there aren't many steam-powered ships left) to indicate working hard, and steady momentum.

A spin move in basketball.
You catch the ball in the key, discontinue your dribble, spin (to the right only) with your feet twisted and body weight slightly off-balance, and shoot a flat-arcing shot.

Often followed up with a Lyeton Hewitt "Come'on!" hand signal.

Made famous by Birdie.
"Birdie catches the ball in the post, spins and scores on the Turn and Burn"
