You don't have to be able to Palm it to throw it like that...
You pretty much do to "throw" the ball like he did. Otherwise you're flinging it.

Dude he tossed it like he was playing catch with a 12 yr old, that is legit as frick! I know you could throw it that far, probably easily, but I doubt you could do it that effortlessly even with your background and size.

He is full of more shite than anyone I've seen on this site. Like I said, most males can heave it full court while the ball simply rest in their hands with no control. But to steady the ball with control, and throw it Like Lebron did can be done by less than about 1% of people

To be fair he did say "and throw it like LeBron did". I think you should watch again to see how easy it was for him and then realize a basketball is WAY different than a baseball. It's not hard to throw it that far but watch how easy it was for him, that is the impressive part.

Honest to god, my baseball background has nothing to do with why I'm shocked that people think this is hard. I'm not trying to sound "cool" because I can throw shite
And dead arse serious, I could do this easier right handed that left handed(I pitched left handed). Anyone who can palm a basketball should be able to do this easy.

No way, not like he did. With a crow hop or even a decent step sure but I do not believe you could do it that effortlessly.
ETA: if you can you should take Zealots $. I mean, step up!

What's crazy is how easy he makes it look. Dude is long as shite his back and core and everything is so strong.
But the length of a court is easy.

Someone is putting up money for this?!
Throwing a baseball, shooting pool, and shooting a gun are the ONLY things I do left handed. I throw harder right handed, throw a football right handed.
And I'm gonna throw this basketball right handed What are the rules?

I hate it too. And don't usually talk about playing ball unless it's late at night and there are very few people in the thread.
The crazy thing about the video is realizing how far he could throw it if he threw it as far as he could....because it looks like he could throw that shite a mile. But the length of the court is nothing.

I'm sure this was brought up, but it looks like Dwight made one today too.
It really does look like Lebron could throw a basketball close to 50 yards. That's unreal.

You just have to hit the RIM ONCE out of every five throws and you get $100 if you risk only $20, its a 5 to 1 payout if you hit the rim 1 in 5 times.

Seriously. Just posted a video because it was an impressive shot and it quickly degraded into a 10 page dick measuring contest with guys who apparently should be playing in the NBA instead of posting on the MSB b/c the shot was so easy.
What does throwing shite have to do with playing NBA basketball?! Why should someone play NBA basketball because they throw something? The hell............?!

Well ya, that is the ENTIRE reason most of us are impressed.
It was just so effortless.

He fricking swished it from 94 ft. Try that 100 times and I bet you don't repeat it.
This. Everyone rushing to confirm how it's actually super easy and shite
I'm not even a LeBron fan, but that was impressive as frick.

And my heart tells me I'd win the bet...although my head tells me to sit down and stfu I didn't think the fact that he made it was the reason the thread blew up though.

No one has once said its easy. The 3rd o 4th post zealot said majorty of people couldnt get it 3/4 length of court...thats been the argument...not one person has said it was an easy thing to do but saying we can throw it doen a court makes us e bad assess and means its an easy shot
