I thought this pretty cool. It was posted on Green Street. Pressey has got some crazy handle and it shows how much work it takes to be a ball handler in the NBA. Check it out.

Obviously this is cool.  But, I imagine most fans don't really know just how good these guys are with the ball.  All that said, this is pretty run of the mill.  My 10-year-old son is a PG on his travel team and can do a lot of these drills already.

Yeah. You very rarely see NBA players playing against anything other than other NBA players, so the incredible skill level that it takes to even make it to the league gets pretty normalized for the viewing public.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Anyway we can show this video to Avery Bradley. I think it's going to be helpful.

When you are 5'9" and you have made it to the NBA, you better have some decent handles.
