## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi there i bougt a ball from you but i cant use it because it is to slippery is that comon ?**
A: Hey, just to let you know this is normal for most types of indoor balls. Real leather balls are the best quality, but also need the most "breaking in." dribbling a lot and shooting around with it will help soften the leather to improve the cushion and grip. After a couple of sessions you should notice it start to improve, and once broken in they perform the best and have a great feel.

**Q: Hi there i bougt a ball from you but i cant use it because it is to slippery is that comon ?**
A: You didn't buy it from me as I haven't sold any on Amazon yet. But the answer to your question is 'Yes', real leather balls tend to be slippery at first but after they have been used they become less so. The advantage of these new balls is they require less 'breaking in' than previous leather balls such as the Molten GL

### ⭐ Worst Basketball Ever!
*by M***Z on 11 March 2020*

I got hyped up about having a basketball which professionals played at olympics and knowing I paid nearly 100quid for it I took the risk not knowing what a huge mistake I have made! It' the worst basketball I have ever played with and regret the purchase. Noone wants to shoot with this ball at shooting practice not to even mention the games. People just refuse to play with this ball full stop and quite rightly so cause it has no feel to it no grip and soooo slippery. I have myself shoot with this ball believeing it could potentially vet vetter but in fact its got even more slippery. This molten BG5000 is waste of money - dont make the same mistake I have made cause you're gonna regret it as much as I do. I dont tend to write a reviews on my purchases but I felt that Im obliged to let all the ballers out there know how crap this overrated overpriced basketball is! Be warned people and this basketball doesnt even come close to a molten gg7 I have had in the past which sadly they dont manufacture anymore. Its absoluetly beyond my how on earth someone would enjoy the luck of feel and grip on this ball . I got fooled by great molten marketing and believing that the ball played at the top level is of decent quality. Noone wants to play with this ball at my club . And trust me im the ex league basketball player , currrently coaching players at youth and adult level. Worst basketball ever - period!
