It's just like that one Lebron commercial when he makes one full legth shot after another, it looks impressive, but in the end it's all just smoke and mirrors. Some of them are clearly CGI, man.

For some shots (like the guy flipping the ball onto the back of his neck) the ball goes out of shot, allowing them to catch it off-camera and drop a different ball through the hoop (just how they do it in every Hollywood movie involving a too-hard-to-pull-off basketball shot. Elsewhere (like the guy balancing three balls on his head) the balls are so obviously CG it's not even funny. Deary, deary me. You numpty – it's clearly CG balls and camera-trickery.

You could certainly put them on during All-Star Weekend, but they won't have Abode Effects to change the trajectory of the ball. Too bad that these videos aren't even remotely legitimate looking.

In fact, I'll say that only the one where the guy is rolling the three balls on the ground is actually real. It's very obvious when they're balancing the three balls. In fact, I think that's the only place where it's very obvious, but if they were willing to CG that, they would probably fake the rest of the video too. Most of these are fake.
