I made a comment about corner 3s being ruled out since they are shorter(and g10 didnt seem to understand that not all 3s are created equal). He didnt post any objections so I assumed he was fine with it. I think the over under was build on 100 from his choosing not in the corner(so anywhere that is 20'9"+

??? Corner 3s only shorter with the NBA line.

ETA: I guess FIBA too, but NCAA 3-pt distance is constant

Not on all courts. But yes. Some community gyms will flatten it out to save space.

ill admit I didnt realize this until i googled the other day, mainly because the outdoor court I go to flattens it out.

Im fine with all banks,
Im fine with having to face a certain direction on the court
im fine with having to swish(although this seems tricky and debatable)
i am fine with having to bounce the ball then having it go in
i am fine with left handed/one handed

You'll be fine with the mystery shot then! It's game time!

What do you think?

I am fine with no practice on the secret shot.

in case you missed it g10

What I think would work best is something like this. I'll be shooting first, so when we get there, we can check out the ball ill be using/you'll be using and make sure it's good to go (biggest thing is when dropped from head, it comes up to the waist area, so that it's not super soft), I get 10 minutes on the clock to warm up, taking whatever shots I would like.

Then i'll shoot my 100 free throws.

You'll then get 10 minutes on the clock to shoot before beginning your free throws.

Then, 15 warm up shots for 3's, and 15 warm up shots for the mystery shot.

that said, I can record them doing it and then project it onto the wall behind the one hoop. haha

Custer,

Just because g10 has the cock of a black man doesn't mean he has the vertical of one. I dont think you've got a lot to worry about things like hang time on jumps, etc. (meh, catching up it seems like this isn't an issue anymore.)

Where the **** is there a court fee? That's annoying. Show up at a 24hr fitness before noon and you have the court to yourself... And prob a rebounder.

"Hey man, we're trying to run some 3 on 3, you mind taking those free throws to the side hoop?"

Plus, this is being recorded. We can't have people walking in the way.

I'll pay up to $500 Babs airfare if it results in some reasonable amount of wiper, Custer, grear, Babs sleepover live stream footage.

If a sleepover happens I'd be willing (like, facetiously) to put money on some combination of the following happening: someone wears pj's with feetsies; someone sports underoos; greear beats up custer and steals his k-swiss but can't figure out how to tie them; someone tries to covertly engage in a homoerotic act while the lights are out; someone refuses wifer's pancakes and gets tossed out the front door on his ass.

G10. That is fine. It would be free in Cleveland and wiper would rebound and I looked up the place again on my phone and found a pic of the basketball court and it may not be the best. If you can find another court rental let me know.

I'm fine for whatever. Finding a court on a Sunday may be hard

def in to rebound in cleveland, that's gotta be damn near halfway between yall right?

sleepover is gonna have to be a no-go, whatever day you're planning it for I think we're busy. lol

also, my money would be on all 4 of us kicking back and bs'ing. odds of anything stupid happening would be ~0.

anyway yeah, web-cam'd, intoxicated rebounding in a guy fawkes mask with a black bandana tied around my neck sounds like a blast, holler when the date/time/place is hammered out.

I think you are using a very conservative definition of "stupid". I'm well aware of how young, drunk guys act. You're all wild and crazy!
