left handed - right handed?? In my parts of the world I am know as "the great anticipator." It is my job to ferret out any possible advantage the opposition is seeking. Carry on...

I'm assuming top of the key, aka not the sidelines. I don't care if you shoot at 12 o clock or 2 o clock.

Maybe you should practice a bank shot

Lol at that post you deleted. I was eating lunch at work. I don't just sit on 2p2 refreshing all day

Alobar should contain Custer and greear to the bet thread
08-10-2015 , 12:37 PM
All,

Custer's intent was to have the third thing be an athletic contest of some sort that would test athletic prowess - speed, strength, agility, balance, etc. A race, a vertical jump, throwing footballs through a tire, kicking field goals, etc. And he let grear choose it because he felt confident he would already have won the contest by winning the first two rounds, one of which was already grear's selection.

I think it's only natural to expect Grear to try and maximize his edge with that selection. Him getting lkj to accept switching this into best of 300 instead of best 2 out of 3 makes this a way more interesting bet!

This seems like something you should have brought up before booking the bets.

I feel like g10 might be setting up the ultimate sandbagging if this above question is real.

Tsk tsk 20 at each baseline, 20 at each FT extended and 20 top of the key would have favored the better shooter
08-10-2015 , 12:44 PM
No, I legit have no ****ing idea what you mean by that? You want us both shooting our 3s from the top of the key?

Lkj,

Oops, they tricked me into thinking I was in the prop bet discussion thread. If you have a question re: my post please ask over there, thx.

oT,

100 from the corner will favor the guy who practices that one shot for hours every day til this contest happens!
08-10-2015 , 12:46 PM
90 would be a more fair o/u

Lol ya probably. He could be sandbagging though. All I know is his estimated ratio from free throw to 3 pt is off. There are not going to be many 30% 3pt in practice shooters making 65 free throws in practice for rec players

yep, but custer was already really, really shook at that point. I prob could have got the o/u down to 94.5 or something but meh, I don't feel like dealing with his whining and GOTCHAAAAA anymore.

That's exactly why the better shooter should want different shots. I mean, the easiest way to make them in bulk, especially when you're tired is a ******** ** **** ****
08-10-2015 , 12:50 PM
Custer,

I think he's got the over locked up.
08-10-2015 , 12:50 PM
I have to go buy a basketball after work.

I'm assuming g10 is going to pay half of this

You're saying im estimating myself at 65% from the FT line, there's no way ill hit 30% from 3, right?

lol......dude you're gonna practice probably 10X as many shots as I do between now and the contest, and you played college hoops.

I don't think Grear thinks he's the better shooter. But I think he has a $2000 basketball shooting freeroll now.
