If you drop the same ball from 6 feet and from 7 feet, the ball dropped from 7 feet will have a higher bounce because of gravity.

However, the balls with less arc will have greater horizontal velocity. Minimal overall velocity comes approximately at a 32-degree arc.

Pullup threes are worth more and more fun... if I'm gonna shoot a bad shot that is my go to.

Pull-up threes on 1-on-1 fast break are my favorite.

Yes, there is a sweet spot. Too much arc equals more generated velocity due to gravity, too little arc means too much exit velocity.

I think Memo was likely close to ideal... forgot about Booze... that **** scraped the damn ceiling.

Boozer had some shots that looked like it didn’t even hit net when they went through lol.

Okur's arc was up there. Boozer had a huge arc.

Boozer is a great one. Did Booker shoot it pretty high too? (hard to remember as it seems like he didn't shoot from the outside much or at all)
