No contesting rebounds or blocks by the net, as the six and a half foot plus pro's do. And sometimes they seem to be just holding the ball in their laps and rolling forward without even bothering to bounce it!

in that on top of the physical differences, the flow and dynamics of wheelchair basketball are vastly in contrast to basketball

and of course the dribbling will be different as they have to have different rules
