You don't have to be angry or bitter to recognize it's a fake. The ball was shot from the opposing freethrow line, yes?
Do you know how long it takes for a ball to go that distance? Way longer than that one did. It was a good sell with the crowd, but if they would have just waited a bit longer it would have been more realistic.
This of course ignores the kind of strength it would take to get a ball that far. It doesn't take superman, but it takes more than a double handed throw-in coming up from that gymnastic move.
No cameraman refuses to follow the ball in flight, either.
I'm old, I'm cranky. I enjoy the faked shots, and this is one of em.
