How do you make a basketball (the ball)?

too difficult to make it by yourself. you can find the specifications (size, weight, etc) on the internet and try to make it from a bulls stomach (or other guts) and leather. but if you manage internet, i am sure you can buy a basket ball in a shop.

Work on the basics.\n\nDribbling:  Work both hands, eyes up\nPassing:  Bounce, Chest and lob pass.  Angles are very important.\nShooting: Layups, Free Throws, Angles shots off the back board.

The best way to get better at a sport is practice!  Find your weeknesses and work on them till they get better. So lets say you aren't that great at dribbling...What you have to do is set up a set of cones in a row and/or curving around (to represent players) and dribble around the outsides of the cones while keeping control of the ball.  If you have shooting problems, just keep shooting for a few hours and you'll get it.  I suggest for a shooting problem to start off trying to make 5 shots in a row without missing.  If you miss you should start back at 0 and work up to 5 again.  Do this with lay-ups and once you master those, move on to free throws.  then back 2 steps, then back another 2 steps.  Keep doing that untill you reach 2 steps past the (invisible three point line) if you are on your driveway or just past the regular three point line.

I will not try to explain the mechanics of shooting the basketball here. However I will tell you to get a book on basketball fundamentals (overall) or just on shooting fundamentals.\nMy next tip would be to tape a NBA game featuring some of the best shooters and watch them at a slow speed to watch thier mechanics. Also work with a coach to learn these mechanics, maybe going so far as to taping yourself so you can compare.\nNext get a ball and shoot shoot shoot.\nGood luck.

First, you need to be in good physical shape. Second, you need to practice dribbling in order to have control of the ball. Third, you need to learn how to pass, and shoot the ball. Last but not least, you need to have self determination and dedication! Don't forget that practice makes perfect!

Get some video of J.J. Redick's shot and copy it exactly. His shot is perfect and so fundamental so it would be good for you to base your shot on his.

Use Adobe Photoshop. Create a careful selection around the ball and hit delete. Afterwards, copy the surrounding into the empty area. Finally use clone stamp and healing brush to make it look natural.

Look at the ring not the ball, raise the ball up with both hands, don't forget to breathe and don't hold it up for too long, take the shot and follow through with your hands and wrists. Do it naturally and not like it is forced and practice, practice, practice. Before long, you are making those jump shots really easy.

take a standard 2"x2" piece of wood and carve bars all around it(one on each corner and one on each side) then carve a ball or two inside that is too large to fall out.

-basketball was invented by Dr. James Naismith.\n\n-He invented it for the YMCA Training School in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1891.  he needed to come up with a game that could be played indoors (winter months), that wasn't too violent (like rugby or football), and had a system of scoring that awarded skill over force (a horizontal goal instead of a vertical goal like soccer).\n\n-he origianlly made 13 rules, and then modified them as his students worked out the mechanics of the game.\n\n-the baskets were origianlly peach barrels nailed to the wooden railing that was 10ft above the gym floor (that's why today's nets are the same height)\n\n-shooting at the basket was based on the game "duck on rock", where the player tried to arc a stone and know another stone off a pedastal.  the better players arced their shots, so if they missed they wouldn't have to run as fall to get their stones back\n\nThat good enough?

Play a give-ngo play, really simple. You start with a normal 1 man on top 2 wings and 2 posts. The 2 posts constantly give screens to anyone cutting. Whoever passes a ball runs in and uses the screen to find an open spot, like the corner for a shot, player who didnt get the ball comes closer to make sure him and the ball is one pass away, and strong side post seals D and is open then opposite post can flash up to high post for a pass fake drive of a shot if he has range if none of those open, another pass to another guard and passer does the cutting again and posts screen again and its continuous motion till you find an open shot.
