Good catch.....but is it OVER the line, like most? I overstepped a tad, as I may have said "not over the line" (not sure). But we know that a tie goes to the runner, so if it was just on the line, still better than most I have seen in the NBA.
Kind of like those so called 360 dunks in the NBA contest...or online, not even close to legit 360 degree dunks. Zion got it done. Now that you mention it, there must be something to that line and its exact distance (obviously)....as it seems to be quite important...players are pushing the physical limits of this. I don't recall ever seeing a player pull it off while clearly being behind the line, let alone easily behind the line....though there could be examples. I'm sure many non-basketball players...elite jumpers of the world, could take up hoops for a day and pull this off, and be safely behind the line (I think). But for traditional basketball players, that line is "the line in the sand", and seems to do well in describing the physical limits of elite basketball players.
