Think of the hard-hit line drive in baseball, for example. Or a shot that has a high arc (a player close to the basket trying to get it over a taller defender) might have an even-looking arc.

My point was to not assume all shots are at on their way down at the halfway point, so we still need to actually watch the ball.

I know. I was just being sassy. Perky. Feeling a little frisky since having a nice weekend. Actually have a little sense of humor. Don't burst my bubble. Jack...
