About 2 weeks ago I was at a Blazers game. And for 30,000 a guy had to make a 3/4 court shot. They guy barely made it over the halfcourt line! haha. It was hillerious. I felt bad for him, I mean I understand it is a hard shot, but he barely came close! Wonder what he was thinking after he threw it.

the words "wanna get away" come to mind

 

a regulation 3pt shot is hard enough, 1/2 court is pushing it, and 3/4 court, why even bother?

 

Um...Well maybe for diff. peops. But I can usually hit 3 pointers a lot. Half courts arent that bad. But Im saying is he only got the ball from the 3 point line to the half court line.

 

sounds like a snickers commercial.

 

haha, one time when my buddy was in youth basketball the seconds were ticking down. at 3 he said fawk it...walked across the court and while he did tossed the basketball over his shoulder AT THE BUZZER and the son of a bish went in. that guy had amazing luck.

 

back in 10th grade, my PE class was all basketball every day. so I'd just do shots all period. It got to the point where I could make 80% of my 3-pointers, and about 5/8 of my halfcourt shots. full court... well, that was like 1/10. but if I'd tried 3/4 court shots, I bet I could make 2 outta 5. not a great ratio, but I could at least hit the backboard :db:

 

a nba regulation 3 pointer is like 2-3 feet farther than a high school 3 pointer.

 

i'd still give it a good heave h:

 

ha ha. anybody got a vid of this or anything? :chuckles: i'd love to see it
