1) it clearly doesn’t bounce like a normal basket ball. you have to hunch over so much as you dribble. minor changes to balls can already affect the way a sport is played dramatically so this doesn’t seem like a good idea 2) why exactly would the nba need a ball that doesn’t need to be inflated? like many things in tech, it seems like a solution to a problem that doesn’t actually exist
I don’t know.. it’s just something about technology like this that doesn’t sit well with me. Maybe I’m just old school but having an actual basketball or sports object in general seems more authentic and passionate to me
Imagine playing a game outside, getting your hands scuffed up from the pebbles that get jammed in the cracks and being left with a maraca that bounces 2/3 of a normal ball. Nope lmao

How do you even call that the same, when the first bounce revealed the literal failure right there!?
I guess you're not a basketball player at all…
Can they atleast paint it orange cus the color was what made Basketballs cool
Do we need to pay for air? What’s wrong with inflatable balls?
What was wrong with a Spalding basketball
it doesn’t bounce the same but what can you expect it’s a prototype bruh
Oh nooo, what did they do to you Wilson! Now I cant even draw a smile face on you!
Spiders will get into it, dust, grime, etc.
Don’t fix something that doesn’t need to be fixed
the most aerodynamic ball
You edited out the part why this ball is better than a real ball
you can even see how hard he's jamming it into the floor to make it come back up properly. Wild that the footage is allowed to exist tbh.

There’s a sayIng. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
You can tell he's really putting in the effort to make it bounce, and even then it doesn't bounce that high.
Always remember he got paid showing this to us by the company that sells thst shitty basketball
Well goodluck to nba player who have tryphobia hahahaha
That shit looks fucking gross
Great, now we can save some precious air for breathing.
That shit did not bounce the same.
They will never change the gear for any sports. It was never a problem back then it isnt now
I Will stick with regular basketballs. The gym I go to already has them inflated and Inflating isn’t that inconvenient
The drop test killed this whole video
Harder to make and worse
What's the point
It’s giving 5 below
Is not airless, it literally has air inside 😂
