  1. There is no site that will help you with your dribbling.  If you want to see dribbling then go to Youtube and look up And1 videos.  Instructional videos can't help you if you don't practice.  Get ideas from great dribblers and practice them.

    The only way to improve your dribbling is to practice it everyday.  Practice each hand and dribbling behind your back and between your legs.  Then play everyday, even in the snow and rain.

    I got better handles than Samsonite.  The way I got them was to play everyday.  I played in High School and Intramural in College, I was better in Track so I didn't persue Basketball.

    I have 2 cousins in the NBA and all of us got our skills with practice on the playground and playing on teams.  Practice makes perfect.


  2. Dribbling Tips

    1. Dribbling starts with proper hand and arm motion as well as body position.

    2. Moving and twisting to awkward body positions are keys to dribbling.

    3. You need to dribble with defensive contact, looking in all directions, even behind, to learn how to protect the ball.

    4. Dribbling is never an end unto itself. One offensive objective is to pass the ball up court to the open player as fast as possible. You must dribble with your head up, constantly looking to pass. All lessons require players to keep their heads up and look while dribbling.

    Counterproductive Beliefs

    1. Dribbling can't be taught. You have to be a natural. This is true if you don't know how to teach dribbling. This inaccurate idea discourages coaches and players alike. Nothing could be further from the truth.

    2. Dribbling between the legs and behind the back are effective methods. They may look good and be okay to practice, but they do not have much effect in games.

    3. It is cool to dribble waist high or higher like many of the pros. Dribbling high is much more difficult, and, unless you are very quick it will lead to disaster. Bob Cousey dribbled with his elbows nearly straight; the ball was only inches, rather than feet, off the floor.

    4. The more you dribble the better you dribble. No, dribbling correctly improves dribbling. Dribbling with the head down, standing straight up, not bothering to look around does the reverse ­you learn how to and do dribble incorrectly. You need to be aware of how you practice. If you want to improve your dribbling technique stop dribbling improperly, even if it is inadvertent, like the dribbling you do while shooting the ball around. Limit your dribbling to the lessons in this book.

  3. go on youtube and look up pistol pete's videos. They WILL improve your dribbling over night.
