knowing how to cut it when you hit the ball so when it contacts the wall, it goes in the opposite direction, thats what helps, having big hands means nothing if you don't know how to use them properly in handball
Handball is such a dope game man, I feel like if more people knew about it theyd love it. I used to play with my buddies all the time, I'm defiently a amatuer but its a blast. Theres also playing softball, real handball the ball is hard as f

Bro growing up and playing Handball in Cali most likely you’re probably in a hood court. You’re gonna get hit up by he homies who run the park and are gonna test you in a game of handball so be ready. Handball is hella fun and tiring, respect and durance is what it’s about.

Classic four wall handball does use a harder ball which moves faster. This is cooler though, and the culture is cool, and the man to man contact is probably greater even if the ball is slower and softer. One wall vs four wall changes a lot of the angles, but all the fastest volleys in four wall are back and forth of front wall anyways so you know big ball/one wall is lit. Both are cool sports. No small ball street ball unfortunately, and precious little in the gyms even.
I think it's just awesome that he recognizes Hard work in another sport, he is a humble professional kid who respects work, and the way he treated Timbo was awesome, I think he would've done the same whether the cameras were there or not, he was really professional , I respect humble people, rich or not. great video.

Great comment!!!!!
One-wall handball is mostly a NYC game. I think it became popular there because all the public parks had one or more concrete walls. It didn't cost much to build them, they didn't require any maintenance, and lots of people could use them at the same time. Perfect use of public money! I miss playing it, wish I could find a concrete wall where I live now! BTW, in NYC, when you say "handball", this is the game you're talking about. The game that's played in a four-walled court indoors is called "blackball".

Because it's not handball, it's wall-ball or something, just like "american football" is not football, they don't play with their feet and it's not a ball, a ball is round, theirs is more like an egg. Handball is played on a court with two teams and there is a goal, there is no goal and there are no teams in american wall-ball.

I have watched the video with Spanish subtitles and there is an error, they are translating handball as "balonmano", but that's the sport of Team Handball. The proper translation in this case is "pelota mano". As a side note, who would want Blake Griffin cross-train playing Team Handball? Could be cool to watch an NBA pro in it.

I understand BG struggle with the endurance factor. I played tennis all my life and every time I play team sports like football or basketball I get exhausted much quicker than playing tennis. Handball has similar coordination like tennis so you need to have quick feet, hands and eyes to control the ball and to be able to move around. Basketball requires similar but also different types of movements so no wonder BG got tired.
