My favorite is how the title graphic on the screen next to the reporter starts as “Money Ball” but changes a few seconds into the monologue.

Those cheeky Australian bastards.

I’ve seen this type of wedge a couple times, very rare. OT: the wedge shouldn’t result in a jump ball, should be a turnover. Shocked dude came so close with the one handed throw. Amateur. Strolling into a two handed heave is how it’s done.

Shooting with two hands is awkward for me, but I’ve heard that is the way to do it. Dude at our weekly basketball game last week made 5 half court shots in a row with the one hand technique this week. Most amazing thing I’ve seen since 2012.

that looks fake watching it. while reading your description i imagined one of those where it’s lodged between the backboard and the rim, toward the side. you see that all the time. what happened in this vid i have never seen before.

have to think the ball was deflated a bit, but if I’m the guy taking the shot and they give me some half deflated ball, I’m asking a few questions.

also known as one of J-mac’s shitty jumpers…
