Layup for 1 billion, (family/friends get executed at dawn if you miss) or 100 bucks?

[CavaliersFTW]

$100 bill to walk away from the opportunity, or you get to take an uncontested layup for a chance to win $1 billion ... BUT your 4 closest of kin (family) and 2 best friends get beheaded by ISIS in front of you if you miss (and you'll be tried/held accountable as the cause of their murder for your greed in an ISIS court of law).

What do you do, do you take that layup? Your family/friends that will be beheaded are in the audience.

What will you do? :confusedshrug:

[Dro]

Not a chance. No amount of money is worth my family's lives potentially. You have to take the $100, go get some weed, take em out to eat and explain to them why you chose their lives over a billion. Its a win, win.....

[ralph_i_el]

I'm doing the layup.
I'm clutch.

what are the rules on this layup? I can just jog up and put it off the glass? If I went slow and focused I don't think I'd ever miss one of those. I'm sure my fam would be pissed, considering they're already set irl and don't have to work if they didn't want to.

[G0ATbe]

Layup. I don't miss.

[buddha]

i'm just going to dunk the ball with touching the rim.. easy money.

[plowking]

Are you allowed to dunk it? Or it has to be a layup? Either way I'm doing it.

[Joyner82reload]

Am I included in those that get executed?

wouldnt trust it. would think it was rigged.

Honestly, I'd just dunk softly off vert assuming I have the month to prepare. But couldnt risk the fam

[GreggPopazit]

Layup. I hate my family so it is win-win.

[warriorfan]

100 dollars unless Budaddii was in my immediate family then I would spike it off the glass as hard as I could

[Smook A.]

LOL this is an easy choice. I'm obviously going for the layup to win a billion. A layup to me is like counting to 5. Super easy.

[RoseCity07]

Of course I'd take that lay up. There is no chance I miss it. I know under pressure I can make it.

[CavaliersFTW]

What if while going up, the ball slips a little and you miss it...
You'd have to watch your family/best friends get beheaded then be put into an ISIS court of law (you probably wouldn't live much longer yourself and would go out in a similarly gruesome fashion). The potential gain is immense, for a simple simple simple task... as easy as a layup. But the consequences for the slim chance of failure are literally horrific and catastrophic.

[Milbuck]

Layup. It's not like I'm gonna be going at full Brandon Knight retardspeed on it, I'd take my time and make absolute sure I'm making it.

[Joyner82reload]

Do you guys realize how much pressure you would be under in this scenario? You would literally feel more pressure than any single 1 individual in the history of the world has felt. I doubt most of you would even be able to hold a fvcking basketball

This, it's not going to be the usual warm up layup that you usually take. If guys like Brandon Knight and T-Mac can miss layup/dunk under pressure, i wouldn't take the chance. Too much to lose.

But yeah basically, how many times have you guys been sitting there and just missed a layup...how many times have you played around the world and missed the layup, not often but I'm sure its happened once. You guys are crazy, you'd be shitting in your pants, your arms would feel so heavy as you raised them for the layup, I promise you'll short arm it, bank it too hard, any thing...

[bigkingsfan]

I still live even if I miss, give me the lay up.

[Prime_Shaq]

Like I said, on a layup I'm stable. I'll be able to correct it. I may not have professional training but I have basic training. Fundamental basketball.

Even if they hate their families, they're going to feel more pressure shooting for the billion alone than they have felt if you added up all of the pressure they've felt in any scenario in their entire life and put it on them at once. This isn't some you get 10 shots to do it. This is all or nothing on 1 shot. And could you imagine the scrutiny you would get from media/society if you took this bet in the first place? And much less missed it? You would be looked at as the biggest piece of shit in the history of human civilization. You would not only be known as the idiot that killed him entire family/friends, but you did it by missing a fvcking layup. You wouldn't be viewed as some psychopath that lost their mind and shot up their family. You would be viewed as a guy that just wagered their lives and lost. Your entire life would be OVER. You would NEVER have a friend, employer, girlfriend, etc ever again.

Christ, even if you make the shot your entire family and friends are still going to be like, WOW **** YOU DUDE

If you can jump high enough to place the ball in the ring, you can't really miss.

I'll two hand place the ball in the ring, without touching the rim. I'll do a two foot take off for even more stability.

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Actaully an interesting hypothetical.

You're thinking in the back your mind, "Well shit, its just a layup. How hard is that?!?" Thing is I could never risk/put my family in danger. Taking the layup would be like me siding with the devil. :lol

But if you miss the reverse you're the one who has to do the beheadings

If you miss the left you're the one who has to do the beheadings along with killing 4 kids that are just about to be released from a childrens hospital that just recovered from cancer. Then you yourself will be publicly beaten in the streets, and beheaded.

Are you getting chased down? Do you have a very brief window of opportunity to make that layup? Also, that layup was pretty meaningless anyway...might as well use a halfcourt shot at the end of a quarter to say that a guy has bad shot selection.

[Marchesk]

Are you getting chased down? Do you have a very brief window of opportunity to make that layup?

That would make it even more interesting. You start at 3 pt line. Lebron starts at the other 3 pt line. He gets to chase you down from behind with family and a billion on the line.

This sounds like a reality show in the making. Minus the killing and billion dollars.

I'd be able to make it with ease if there wasn't the risk of the killing. Even with Lebron on me. Seriously. I'd easily make it. One of my standout abilities is scoring on the break because I do what I saw Pistol Pete do. I don't go straight up for the shot, I give an up fake, stop on a dime waiting for the defender to go airborne and sail past me, and make an easy 2. I rarely see NBA players do that, but it works when it's just one guy chasing you down.

[plowking]

So does it have to be a flat footed layup from the ground or are we allowed to jump/dunk/drop it in?

[CavaliersFTW]

A dunk is a layup, there are many types of layups. Any type of layup counts. Just release the shot within 3 feet of the basket, do w/e finish you want. Just remember, your family and friends heads are on the line if you choose to attempt the layup.

Yeah but I dont think its needed. I mean, no way LeBron chases me down from the other 3pt line. If you have proper fundamentals, one dribble is all you need to lay it in from the 3pt line.

To make it harder OP you should have said you have to do it under 10 seconds.

In that case I'd do it without question. Just recently dunked for the first time about a month ago. Pretty confident I could make an uncontested freebie dunk or drop in. Pretty much no chance of screwing it up unless I try to extend the arm like Lebron, which I couldn't do anyways.

What if the court had legos all over it

[CavaliersFTW]

How bout this, it has to be a Mikan drill-esq layup off the glass. You can use your dominant hand. But you have to use the glass and it's the traditional push-the-ball-at-the-backboard type of layup. Still simple as counting to 5. But this way people who can dunk vs people who can't don't have any advantage it's all even since everyone can (or should) be able to do a Mikan-drill layup with ease.

If you just dunked for the first time recently, I highly doubt you'd finish an oop. Even with a perfect pass, your momentum would have to be just right (assuming you're not a good dunker already).

[dreamwarrior]

My family would force me to do it anyway so if I miss it's on them

[LongLiveTheKing]

I'd make it easily, even with all that pressure, I can't remember the last time i missed a wide open layup. I don't think its happened to me in a game I mean i have missed easy lay-ups before but not wide open

I've been in shape to dunk for longer than a month, just wasn't balling that much before about a month ago. Started working out a lot more aggressively, especially on my vert, since early last summer. And since then I've been dunking a good amount just practicing by myself. Not saying a lob would be effortless but I can def do it if the pass is on point. I would never try it with the conditions in the OP though.

I miss a lot of layups but with a stake like that I just can't miss. (provided the rim, ball, lighting, wind, noise, etc on the court are all normal.) Easiest 1 billion in history.

I'd yell out "my bad you guys!!!" as theyre hauled out of the gym, then Id get in my car and drive to a local bar where I'd sit down and start telling a stranger over a mug of beer some days it just doesnt pay to get out of bed.

Even if I didn't suck at basketball, it'd still be my choice. I would never risk the lives of my loved ones. Not for anything.


Also lol at people acting like nobody ever misses layups.

[inclinerator]

$100 bill to walk away from the opportunity, or you get to take an uncontested layup for a chance to win $1 billion ... BUT your 4 closest of kin (family) and 2 best friends get beheaded by ISIS in front of you if you miss (and you'll be tried/held accountable as the cause of their murder for your greed in an ISIS court of law).

What do you do, do you take that layup? Your family/friends that will be beheaded are in the audience.

What will you do? :confusedshrug:

make it my non immediate family(cousins,uncles, aunts) and ill take the bet 100 out of 100 times

Different circumstances.

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Different circumstances.

You're right. One is


going to feel more pressure shooting for the billion alone than they have felt if you added up all of the pressure they've felt in any scenario in their entire life and put it on them at once

And the other is just going to feel the usual pressure of not missing a lay up in a regular 48 minute NBA game.

I'm super clutch I'll probably just pull up from 30 feet that's like a layup for me anyway...

LB23's my dude I've missed layups myself plenty of times he's just the only one I had footage readily available of :lol

Here's Lebron #6 also missing a layup

anyone at any time can miss a layup

our asian friend is trying some low fingerroll shit plus he's small and probably extremely tired from laying it up twice earlier in the video. A normal heighted dude, holdinh the ball way up his head and making a proper jump gets near enough to be confident not to miss.

and in games it's not pressure, it's usually a player thinking something and trying something else or his legs not fully responding etc...

would we be forced to use the backboard or are we using a more free definition of layup?

If I were bran, I wouldnt

[knicksman]

Anybody that doesn't take a layup opportunity is a complete moron. Family will be pissed momentarily, but they'll be glad later. Missing a layup is out of the question.
