Kobe had a shot last night at the 3rd quarter buzzer that pwns any other shot . He literally just threw it at the basket at the buzzer and it went in . WOW!

I saw a clip last year from some high school game where a guy leapt for a ball going out of bounds at the baseline, he whipped it around his back, the ball hooked onto the bottom of the net which SOMEHOW caught the ball, swung it up and around into the hoop.

That was probably the craziest freak shot i've seen anyway.

I refuse that believe that 99% of those shots are planned and real.

The same way LeBron's 80 footers for that PowerAid Ad are fake.

It wont be fake, it would just take ages to get each shot right... I have done stuff like this in my driveway too, just didnt film them (and not on such a big scale)

Its definately possible, and doesnt look fake at all

In the Lebron commercial, the ball disppeared at the top of screen, and then, presumably, another ball was dropped into the basket. But in that video, the ball never disappeared on any of those shots.

You could say that they used some computer program, but if a big-budget commercial didn't use that, then how could they.

One time I attempted a three pointer, and the ball went in and out and in again.

They're not fake. On the powerade commercial, you couldn't see the entire path of the ball, but on most of these you can.
