Only thing they could possibly do is change it to .3 instead of .4, but even then, you saw how long it took Kapono to get a shot off in .3 seconds. That was with no defense, from his chest, and a set shot. Not really realistic in the context of an NBA game. Cool video though.
yeah pretty much what I was thinking. If you can get the shot off that way it would work, the chances of that though are slim to none.
