Clip Of The Day: French Hoops Amusement Park Training

This is kind of crazy. We originally found this clip via Deadspin and the video was too wild not to share. The team in question, French pro squad Poitiers Basket 86, apparently has a new method of training to get them ready for the court: giant robotic rides. According to a French connection of the Dime fam, the video is a joke by these known pranksters, but just imagine trying to throw an accurate chest pass while being flipped upside down in this thing. It looks more like a drill NASA would perform than a basketball team. And we thought D-Rose and company had intense workouts…
