More realistically, very great cycle times will exist around 15-20 seconds.



Nope. You have to factor in points from crossing a defense. If I can low goal in 14 seconds (7pts) and only high goal in 20 sec (10pts), there is no difference in my scoring rate. (both = .5 pts / sec). It's gunna take time to line up your shot and/or collect the ball if you miss.



You better be 4'6" tall, or you're gunna have visions of 2013 cross-court shooter defense dancing in your head.
As for 4'6" tall..not necessarily a limbo bot high power shooter can shoot this year from the furthest reaches of the courtyard of the opponent... I saw it. As for reliability well that needs to be seen.
