I agree.

I remember reading once that Rick Barry claimed he could teach anyone to shoot better underhanded in an hour or two. I believe it was in reference to Shaq, but it might be time for Royce to give him a call...

I dont care which way we shoot free throws i just want them to go in. RW cant shoot FT or hit a mid range jumper.. you need a mid range jumper to play in the league

Practically it makes sense. Unfortunately, it is such a blow to someone's manhood to do so that I can't see it happening.

Worth a shot

Can't be any worse

I think Royce is just zany enough to pull it off.

Who's going to tell him he looks like a dork doing it? Not me.

If they're going to be laughing at you for shooting airballs, what's the difference if they're laughing at you shooting granny style??

Underhand freethrows + blow to manhood > airball freethrows + blow to manhood

blow to manhood cancels and you get

Underhand freethrows > airball freethows

Shoot 'em underhand and quit taking 3's. That is all.

Yeah, because nothing says manly like air-balling FTs.
