    The dude is a point guard in a professional basketball league, he's supposed to be able to do that.

    Damn I used to hate doing those dribbling drills, and that was only with one ball!

    While those are clearly elite drills.....that's not mind blowing at all.

    What exactly are we supposed to be amazed at here? any NBA, division 1, and probably division 2 point guard could do this...

    I'm actually a big Conley fan and that's just a regular drill someone got from a workout. About 50% of NBA pgs could do that and the elite college and high school guys. Rafer is probably one of the best ball handlers of all time. He could do that with his eyes closed

    ive see this before, but this stuff is impressive. come on guys. ive been playing basketball for 10 years and ive played with guys that play d1 ball right now...and they definatley can't do all of that and there is NO WAY anybody but the select few high school guys do that. NO WAY.

    thats f'in impressive. who cares who all can do it? its still impressive.

    Most of those are from the better basketball video. We did them at the U of I with our players. I would say most High School coaches who stress ball handling are going to have their kids doing those drills. I know they are big at ABC camps. heck the better basketball video has a 13 year old kid doing those ball handling drills. I think most here would be surprised to find out that they themselves can do those drills.

    The one of him bowling a strike with his right hand then picking up a spare in the next lane with his left hand was alos pretty cool.
