Are you sure?

Rule 4, Section 8.
Continuous Motion
Continuous motion applies to a try for field goal or free throw, but shall have no significance unless there is a foul by the defense during the interval that begins when the normal throwing movement starts a try or with the touching on a tap and ends when the ball is clearly in flight.

I do not see anything anymore about upward motion. And Upward motion actually was more about when a player was in legal guarding position. I think they got away from that a few years ago.
