loooooooooool!

That one's funny to me, it looks like his shooting pulse is just like a normal jumper. And no, it's not fake. :crazy:

Its fake, no one can shoot full court shots without effort.

Its fake and a very obvious reason why is because you never get to see the entire flight of the ball on its way to going through the hoop. He shoots it and it goes off screen and then comes back and goes through the hoop. Also, when it comes back on screen its slightly off its initial path.

EDIT: I just read Jackals post and that just about sums it up.

I noticed it was fake, just by the lack of effort put into the shots. He was taking a regular jumpshot and somehow making it go across the entire court?

Of course, back in the day all commercials were real. That Michael Jordan/Larry Bird game of HORSE for the Big Mac? Pure skill. 8-)

it's quite obvious. He barely puts enough power behind the shot for it to go 20ft let alone 80, and, the ball disappers like Mafia said.

The only basketball related advertisment in the Netherlands I've seen till date is the one with Dirk and a flurry of other stars of various other sports in the locker room wearing Nike apparel.

Okay, someone lock this thread. What the hell was Guilliano's point for even asking this? If LeBron could do this, why doesn't he just imbound the ball whenever the opponent scores and just throw up these shots? Cause...maybe...just maybe, its fake.

I HAVE TO USE CAPS, OMG PEOPLE. LEBRON HAS A SHITTY 3PT SHOT LET ALONE YOU THINK HE CAN ACTUALLY MAKE A SHOT LIKE THAT? LOL :shock:
I DO NOT THINK ANYBODY IN THE NBA CAN HIT A SHOT LIKE THAT 3 TIMES STRAIGHT, HELL NOT EVEN ONCE.
