The diameter of a standard basketball rim is 18 inches, with a net either 15 or 18 inches long. This means that, when a standard 29.5 cm (circumference) ball approaches the rim vertically, it can be up to 4.5 inches from the center of the hoop and still go in. Theoretically this is the easiest way to make a basket, but somehow shooting vertically just isn't my thing...
