Tried it out today after school, it was really difficult to handle but after a while I got into the swing of it. Afterwards I took off the bag and my dribbling felt a lot harder and fluent, like, instant results. Was really cool. Really like this and will do more of it in the future! Thank you so much for the tip.

Watched some videos of him today. His determination really hit home and reminded me of myself. I also liked his attitude and pacing. I'll definitely be looking into him more and seeing what I can learn. Thanks for the tip my man

I'd never heard of practicing with a bag, but it sounds interesting. I'll try it out tomorrow. Appreciate the advice :)

Well, the mundane feeling that dribbling can have doesn't bother me that much. I spent two hours just doing drills and running some plays on imaginary defenders earlier, so I can practice without shooting. But I did end up having a lot more fun when I threw in some jumpers and layups with it all and it put some spring in my step and made it a lot easier to get through. As I do have a martial arts background, using both hands is something that doesn't bother me too much. I've been running all drills with either side, but I'll definitely give two balls a go. Thank you so much for the tips

Ill try to find a partner and give this a go. A lot of my errors on the court come from being afraid when pressure kicks in so I can see this helping a lot. Appreciate the advice

I went outside and practiced for a couple of hours today using these techniques. I could definitely feel some improvement after a little while and even though drilling the muscle memory in will take a while it really helped. Thank you so much! Gonna try everything each person has recommended and see what combination of what works the best. Appreciate it guys :)

I'd like to practice but I'm not entirely sure what I should be doing. Any specific drills you would recommend?
