Aight well I've seen so many different variations of ankle-breaking crossovers, Allen Iverson crossovers and whatnot. Now I wanna learn them thangs, only problem how the hell do you practice them. I mean it's rather hard to tell whether you're doing them right when you're practicing by yoself.

Oh and if anybody got any pointers for crossovers lemme know.

first off improve ya handles and play alot of pick up games, over time ull start performin crossovers automatically without even thinkin about it, but to kno wether ure doin them rite find a mirror and cross in front of it....keep tryin untl ure sure u can sell the fake

what do yall mean by pick up games???
all i do for my handles is just practice and practice learning/doing fundamentals first
when i pratice a crossover i play some1 that sucks with defense like my bro or few of my friends so i try to use the move on them and keep on trying/practicing on them....it helps cuz if u lose the ball then they wont laugh but in a real game like at school if u lose the ball ppl start laughing or picking in u.......its what i do
