Skip to the minute mark if you don't like John Denver.
Dribbling skills brought to you by Pistol Pete, sponsored by Reebok!

@4:36 - that would be awesome to do in a game while your team is down or if you just had a blunder on defense.

Remember 'Red on Roundball'? I loved watching this shit back in the 70s & 80s. CBS would show it during halftime.

Thank goodness for YouTube.

Andrew, you know how much I hated Red Auerbach. But I always respected his knowledge of the game. I learned so much watching that stuff as a teenager. I think some of today's players should check these out.
