    That is absolutely awesome. May be the most coordinated person over 7 foot we've ever seen.

    I don't think that soccer dribble says much about coordination though. I remember Sabonis doing similar stuff too, at 0:25 of this video:

    Not off a bounce off the rim. That is pretty impressive.

    I would say it certainly helps with coordination and footspeed. Alot of your post moves are about footwork after all.

    How can you forget Hakeem? But ok, technically he's not taller than 7 foot :)

    Much credit to the game of soccer. Great skill to have for NBA players.

    Hakeem credited soccer for his footwork in the post. Nash said it felt unfair to be able to use his hands in the NBA after player soccer for years. Divac and Paul said it help with their passing skills by knowing angles, spacing and movement. Kobe said it help him greatly in the NBA. And so on...
