re: Did Florida recruit Canyon Barry knowing he shoots free throws like a

The ball approaches the rim from the bottom (much softer) and will nestle around the rim if it draws iron. You don't see many of them bound away from the rim on a miss. Also, notice that the ball is gripped on the sides for a softer shot. It's really interesting to watch. Wilt Chamberlain resorted to it fin ally, and even though he never was a good FT shooter using any method, the "granny" did improve his stats.

The night Wilt scored 100 points in the NBA, he was 28 of 32 from the line. IF that bastard had been able to shoot free throws, there's no telling how many points he would have scored in his career.
