There are many exersizes that can help you're reflexes. Some that would be specifically for goaltending would be... Sitting down on the floor (or better yet sitting in butterfly stance) and throwing a tennis ball against a wall and catching it with the opposite hand you threw it with, remember to alternate hands. Also when stretching for goaltending (such as moving legs in and out of butterfly stance) pretend there is a shot conming for which ever knee you are putting down. Also playing goalie for other sports like soccer, ball hockey or ringette would improve your reflexes.

If you shoot the ball and it is deflected after it hits the backboard but is still on its way up is this goaltending?

As far as NBA rules go, yes. If a ball is touched after it has touched any part of the backboard above ring level, it is considered goaltending regardless of whether the ball is on its upward or downward flight. If the ball touches the backboard below ring level and is touched on its upward flight, it is considered goaltending; downward flight, no goaltending. Of course, the official also has to rule that the ball would have had a chance of going through the ring for goaltending to be called.
