I really am shocked by this because it's not my experience at all. Maybe I just remember the misses on good more than the makes because, as someone said, I feel like I should make them at a higher clip than I do because of the word good.

Exactly, and I'm glad someone mentioned this. I mean, look at the total number of Goods vs everything else - 158 of them to 46 Slightly Early/Late, and 31 greens. That's a pretty damn big sample size - multiple games worth of "Good" shots for a single player. So, if other people like me are going to have the vast majority of their shots as good timing, then of course they're going to think something's wrong when they shoot around 50% on them (they'd expect it to be higher because it's you know, "Good").

And those are open goods. Contested goods or slightly misses are different story...

I think shot release system sucks really. Hitting green should not be 100% bucket and goods should be higher in my opinion.

Can we talk about freethrows ? In pro am there is no way I should miss multiple 90% releases. I understand it’s possible but happened way to much.

Well you should be missing 1 every 13 or so. My current Proam FT% is 87%, most of them taken with the silver badge, so I can't say I have noticed a problem. Oddly enough, I missed the first two free throws I took after I got the gold badge (both good/91%), but I haven't missed another since.
