Make 2, win $100 million.

Make 0, spend 20 years in prison.

Make 1, you walk away, no harm no foul.

Do you risk it?

If you let me practice first, then yes. Immediately, nope.

when you say prison, do you mean a black neighborhood in chicago?

About ten or twelve years ago I was really good at it and probably would've said yes.

The team I was coaching at the time would run into these tournaments where they'd do 50/50 raffle's with the chance to make it 80/20 if you were willing to risk a half court shot, and you could pick anyone in the gym to shoot it. I made three of five one year. I had parents asking me to come out of the locker room at half time to shoot it.

Federal 'pound me in the ass' prison.

I feel like I could make at least one. But with the stakes that high... that's a lot of pressure.

No amount of money is worth 20 years in prison.

No way.


If it's $100M or 1 year in prison Id consider it. But 20 years would be out of the question.

Yeah sure. I'm already a good shooter and with a bit of practice i can confidently knock one in 20.

1 in 20 doesn't get you the money.

All that gets you is a 20 minutes of stress.
