Can you really call it nothing but net if it hits the backboard first?

You certainly can if the backboard is made out net as well.

fake

Also, it probably hit several air molecules as well

Watch it again. Nothing but net.

I did watch it again. It hits the backboard, then it goes into the basket without hitting the rim. Not sure if this qualifies as nothing but net, that's why I was asking.

That's weird, the video changed somehow. I re-embedded it, so it should show the right shot now - with nothing but net.
[Edit:] He also makes a second trick shot from half-court, and that one does hit the backboard. But the first shot - the longer of the two - just swishes through. >> ^kurtdh:

his brain is pretty special, But nothing special about what he is doing. Good memorization and muscle control, his spacial orientation/recognition and control make him up vote worthy.

But throwing a ball into a hoop. Woopty fuckin do.
