Got to use it today at a private scrimmage with some college players and a couple of NBA players (who have it early to get used to it). It does take some getting used to. I don't think it actually is lighter, but it felt like it due to the design. I found it a little harder to catch at first, but easier to dribble. Better rotation on jump shots once you get a bit of the feel for it.

It's gonna make a fortune for Spaulding. Every kid who plays hoops is going to want it for Christmas (or sooner)...

It looks pretty sweet.

Now who were these NBA players you were balling with?

Geez. I guess you couldn't get a good game going, so you had to go "slumming"..?
