Shooting free throws underhand is superior; However almost no one does it by WestCoastAg can someone explain to me how that matters. how can we pull an equation like that when we know shite about how effective people usually are when they shoot underhanded free throws? how can we look at the average free throw rate of people shooting overhanded and then put it into an equation of how successful people would be underhanded if we dont have any way to put their success rates into context? what about shooting free throws underhanded allows them to use that equation and find that number?

What about the obvious greater amount of backspin and more forgiving trajectory isn't obvious.

Anybody who questions this is a full blown retard.

the fact that you get greater control of the ball by shooting overhanded? it just seems that shooting overhanded for freethrows is better just like shooting overhanded is better for all other shots around the court
