Yeah, we can help you, but you're going to have to get way more specific. To start, to use animation, you're going to have to learn Java Swing. For animation, you need to learn about timers. You have to decide whether there are any human players in this game. If so, you're going to need some way for the person or persons to control the paddles, which means you need to learn about either Key Listeners or Mouse Listeners or Action Listeners or more than one of them. Since you're using timers, you may need to learn about the Runnable class and/or Threading. Here's your main page for Java tutorials.

We have no idea what you know already. You may know all this stuff, in which case, again, you need to ask a far more detailed question.
