    There's no up and down on a free throw. It's not like he was trying to fake someone out.

    Sorry, but THIS is the greatest free throw ever:

    Yeah, that was a "swish" you heard. Apparently, he was jawing back and forth with Deke (newly drafted) who told Jordan he wouldn't make his next shot. So Jordan says "Mutombo, this is for you baby", and nails it blind. Then walks away saying "Welcome to the NBA".

    THAT is the greatest free throw ever.

    The greatest free throw MISS ever, however...

    TWO opposing players did it. But you're still right by RULE 10-c in the NBA, but I don't know if it's a rule in the league depicted. :cool:
