Have a Neverflat that's pretty much bald now and need something to replace it with.  Wasn't a particularly big fan of the neverflat and want to try something different.
 
made the mistake of buying the spalding tf-1000 and deeply regretted it. opportunity arose when it got stolen from the gym though and i bought the wilson evolution.
 
all you guys named indoor balls

suggestions for a ball used primarily for outdoors and indoors every once in a while?
 
There's not any good indoor and outdoor basketballs. You have to get 2 separates ones there guy, or just get something cheap like the Wilson i/o's or Spalding Pro Tacks they sell in Wal Mart around 15 bucks. But the second you use it outside it starts wearing the grip down for indoor use. Ideally, get a good composite indoor ball like the Wilson Evolution or Spalding TF1000 (old ones if you can find it) for around $50 bucks, then get a decent rubber/composite based outdoor for about $20
 
for outdoor i've heard that the spalding zi/o excel was good i think its priced at like $30
 
evolution > tf1000

tf1000 is probably the worse ball i've played with. complete garbage.

once it gets wet (due to sweaty hands), it's like playing with slime
