    I read somewhere that the warehouse has 20 ft. sidewalls. Ceiling should not influence shot unless shooting beyond half court.

    But having sidewalls behind the backboard could be effecting depth perception when the guys get into an open stadium.... Just saying...

    "Back when I was kid", Nerf balls weren't widely distributed yet. I remember using balled up socks and an ice cream bucket on top of the kitchen refrigerator. Had to improvise for young kids to stay active in North Dakota winters!

    How far above the floor was the scoreboard at the BSA as compared to what will be at the SHAC? If hung the same distance from the ceiling the SHAC scoreboard will only be 2.5 feet higher. Seemed like a court length pass at the BSA would come awefully close to hitting the bottom of the scoreboard.

That has to be a bit of disadvantage if roof is affecting his shot?

    He has shot like that since high school. LA was the same way when he was younger if I remember right. He has added a little arc to his shots and it has paid dividends.

    Michael Jordan's outside jumpers were notoriously flat. Looks cooler in my opinion.
