I still don't think you are understanding that players outside the 3 point line can NOT enter until the ball hits the ring,flange or backboard. That was my intention to get you to re-read the rule.

Now my opinion on why it does not get done at higher levels. I feel it increases the possibility of a violation due to the timing required for one. Second withthe increased skill there is a higher probability that the player "crashing" the boards this way could initiate contact and therfore be called for a foul.

It is the opinon of this poster that the risks outweigh the rewards and that is why it is not done.
