Re: Do you "have" to use a shooter?
Can you attempt a dunk? Yes. In fact, for the 2-pointers, it will definitely work without added propulsion, if you do it right (and possibly are willing to take penalties). For the 1-point basket, some propulsion will be needed in the horizontal direction; for the 3-pointer, vertical and horizontal propulsion will need to be supplied.
Is it possible to supply that propulsion? Yes. See 2008's hurdling designs for ideas. Is it going to be easy? Not necessarily.
