Seems to me she's got more than the guys who tossed her up there. Although none of them appear to have much sense.

WHAT?!? No way. That was REAL, dude! She went right through the basket and even hit her head on the way down! Didn't you see her grab her head at the end?

Not even a trick video, just an optical illusion. The stunt is done in front of the rim.

Next thing you'll tell me is there is no Easter Bunny, no Santa Claus, OJ Mayo went to USC for an education, Barry Bonds was clean, and we have a budget surplus in this country!

Shocked I tell ya, shocked I am!!

We used to have a politically incorrect term for this phenomenon.

So...

You no longer have the term? It's not longer politically incorrect?

Hmmm. A slight variation on your first possibility. "We no longer use the term."

Stop the video at the 19 mark and you can clearly see she is going through the basket.

Ah, but if it's an optical illusion, isn't that exactly what we'd expect to see? Hmmm?

Not if you look carefully. Her body, at one point, is beyond the edges of the rim as she was supposedly passing through. She passed in front of the rim and either flicked the net with her hand on the way by or they had the net rigged to a string with someone out of the scene controlling it.
