Remember the guy we featured yesterday who scored that impressive basket after a headroll?

Amateur.

FTW (for today at least)

I wonder if he can hit shots as consistently WITHOUT shooting around the back.

The kid yesterday was far more impressive. He did it in a crowded gym, where people weren't going to be milling around aimlessly if he had already missed several times. This guy could have taken any number of takes of each shot until he made one. Plus, he had a whole bunch of variations on the under-leg layup. Woo-Frikken-Hoo.

(visits facebook page for guy...)

Umm, OK. Now I hate him. I seriously want to beat the crap out of this guy.

This guy is to basketball what jugglers are to baseball. The fact that you can do tricks with the ball doesn't mean you're any good at the sport. Now he wants to challenge Shaq to a game of Horse? For pocket change? (because Shaq has always been considered a great shooter? WTF?)

What a douche.

Wow. I am a pretty solid H-O-R-S-E player. I rarely lose. This kid would skunk me.

I bet even you could beat Shaq, JW. The Big Aristotle is not known for being able to hit anything outside of 8 feet from the rim. Shoot from the free throw line and Shaq is only going to hit half of them.

I learned a lot of trick shots from a guy I played with in high school. Michael Dickerson. He played at Arizona and in the NBA for a few years. We (and others) would play H-O-R-S-E every day. Mike almost always won. Over the backboard, over the rafters, bounced off the bleachers, all kinds of crap. But the main shot that kills people is Dickerson's patented bank-shot 3 from the wing.

Shaq would beat me in a breakdance battle though.

yesterdays kid gets more pints because he's in freakin' middle school. this guy's had years and years to practice. let's see how yesterday's kid does when he's 30

Hey, when your parents foot the bill and you do not have to work....anyone could hang out and shoot hoops all day. You edit enough video........

On the other hand, if this guy is legit...Wow!
Pretty impressive.

*yeah, see what I did there - -

said EffenIdontcare on June 24, 2009 8:07 PM.

I'm not buying it. Clever video editing if you ask me. Have you ever tried to throw a basketball from mid court? No way this guy did it effortlessly behind the back.

said skeptic on June 25, 2009 1:33 PM.

So what do you guys think of this then?
