This assumes left/right is aligned properly as well and doesn't apply to backboard shots. This also assumes that the ball(s) shot from the bridge matches 'squishiness' of the ball(s) used for calibration.
I think it's like human player baskets this year -- of the many attempts, a relative few will score points.

Oh, I definitely understand it would be a crazy thing to pull off. I'm just surprised I haven't seen more teams try to implement it.
