    Re: Do you play?

    I wouldn't mess with that. I'm confident in my half-court game, but not with two years of prison on the line. I'd be tense to start then after I missed my first three or so, I'd instantly begin thinking how I was one closer to prison. I'd be a mental wreck.

    Sidenote, I know this will sound unconventional, but does anyone else attempt half-court shots soccer style? I randomly made one like that during basketball practice in high school, then revisited the strategy years later. It honestly might be more consistent than what I normally did (a heave).

      I'm fairly confident I could make at least one out of 10, but not confident enough to risk it.

        I think I'd probably make 1. But no way I risk it. I get to do pretty much what I want to do right now and no chance I'd risk being away from my daughter during the prime of her childhood.

          Is this half court from an NBA/College sized court, or high school? We need to know these things.

            NBA, you didn't see the Heat center court in the photo?

              So does it have to be in Miami? Do I have to be that dude as well?

                I suck at Real Life Sports, so I would unfortunately have to pass.

                Maybe if I had like a week of practice leading up to my ten chances, lol.

                  If it's the NBA, I want 20 shots and I'm in.

                    Re: Do you play?

                    If we do miss all ten, do we have a completely clean record when we get out since we really did nothing wrong? Also, can we go to the jail where all the insider trading people go?

                    If the answer to the above is yes to both, then I'm in. If not, I would probably pass.

                      I don't know man, you'll spend the next two years all depressed being in the "What if..." stages, not as upset about being in prison but even more so that you didn't get the $20 million.

                      I suppose the next question is, say you are released from prison... would you try it again with the same consequences? Try as many times as you'd like?

                      I mean those prison yards have hoops, man. You can practice for two whole years.

                            If it was low Security and didnt show up on any criminal record then yes, If I miss all 10 I go to prison for 2 years and get a college degree...

                              I most certainly would, considering I have a 22% success rate from half court.

                                That's a pretty specific percentage
