rick barry free throw...

Wed Apr 20, 2005 2:00 pm

does the game have his free throw ritual?
thanks

i don't think there are any free throw rituals other than those who take their shot farther away from the line like t-mac and nve

I don't think so. I remember way back in the times of NBA Live 97 there was supposedly a way to shoot free throws Ricky Barry style, but it was a fake. Most cheats/tips/codes sites still list it in their archives though.

yep that style is difinitely present at the 97 and 98 live series (Y) ......pressing the LI/L2 or r1/r2 buttons altogether (Y)

It must have been a PlayStation only trick. The trick for the PC version didn't work.

mmmm come to think about it you are right.....i remember playing those games in Playstation only.....the nes and pc version i didn't bother to try, since that freethrow move rarely scores :lol:
