I feel awful for the players that had to suffer the painful cuts from that ball. There was a 5-8% difference in the bouncing but they let it pass. Dumb decision, they should have never made the change to the ball
I had never realized why some balls were shittier than others despite looking nice when I was younger. I remember using a ball just like that when I was in middle school and shit was awful.
I bought a slightly used one on Kijiji. I’ve played with it on indoor courts only and I’ve found it the be a very comfortable ball to play with. The bounce is no different than with my other top end balls. The ball itself has a nice grip and is easy to handle.
Once they were broken in they felt ok, but they were a lot more rough, almost a rubbery feel that didn’t smoothly slide through your fingers like a nice leather ball does when it’s broken in.
I was at a camp a few months ago and they had us use a ball like this one day and it felt like it was cutting my hands up every time I dribbled, shot, and passed.
70% of basketballs in my school's playground are even worst i finish playing with itchy fingers that have red blood spots on them but no actual blood leaking
My dad was the National sales manager for Spalding through the 2000’s, and I got to keep one of these balls. Played with it an entire summer and I had CONSTANT cuts on my middle and pointer fingers. This ball is total ass but a good collector piece
When it came out a friend got it,. We in europe here and had not much basketball experience. Damn I remember that nobody liked it. Compared to our official game balls(pricy real leather versions) this thing was a joke. Felt like cheapo.
That was really awesome and that was really cool if you can I would like to see some more jumping videos or like jumping exercises to do and that was👍👍😱😱😳😳😎😎🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪💪
Man’s acting like he’s dribbling a ball made of broken glass. It’s really not that bad. Just jumping on the bandwagon since the viral video about the hated ball. If it was so bad that your hands need shaking off after 2 dribbles then it wouldn’t have been made for the NBA. The difference is at the NBA level players play at the top level and play with the ball vigorously which is which their hands developed cuts overtime from it , a factor that was ignored in its production- the professional use of it

im a bit late I know, but a good budget option would be a Wilson forge, or really any scalding indoor/outdoor composite ball. buy one in a sporting goods store, and if it feels good to hold, get it
I know why this is bleeding and stuff, there are little needles that go in to your skin and it has magnetic things that hold it in. This makes the grip better while dribbling or shooting but its very dangerous
I once bought a baketball for like 3$ and when I inflated it it was literally the shape of the earth.. it got mountains and stuff... Oblique Spheroid! You were better off dribbling a football.. that thing went everywhere!' 😂
CAN YOU DO A VIDEO WHERE U DETERMINE WHICH BACKBOARD IS BETTER, A BOUNCY ONE OR A LESS BOUNCY ONE. I'm not explaining it well becuz at my house out backboard on out hoop isn't that bouncy but the one at out park has a lot of bounce
