  1. bad reasoning friend. there are players that can hit that shot 3-4x out of 10. it's not as wide a pool of probability as the lotto. would you be shocked it larry bird, steve kerr, reggie miller, glenn rice, pistol pete, george gervin, dan majerle, rex chapman, dell curry, eddie johnson, craig hodges? having watched basketball & played with guys in college & proAms, i've seen people that surprise me more when they finally miss. especially just fucking around without being checked

  2. i'd like to see any cenk hit that shot. but then again, it's not even a legal shot. but it's still cool to watch. i remember going to see the bulls play jersey once & their 3guard, chris morris (who broke the glass during that game) shot 25'ers while sitting in a chair. he could jump from out of bounds & dunk. that guy was never even an all-star & he was that good. pete maravich once threw a pass across the whole 94' & it went into the basket. it's always cool to see stuff like that

  3. don't get me wrong, the best 3pt (avg 24ft) shooter (kerr) isn't hitting them more than 46% of the time in his career. and you're absolutely right. 1 shot doesn't make a game, a career or a player. BUT, it shows some skill. but for what it's worth, howard leads the league in free throw attempts & could probably be scoring 6-10 more points if he improved those by less than 15%. but dwight ain't expected to be a face up shooter. he's a good player for other reasons. either way, the shot was fun
