Because it's the best way to get it up into the hoop... and if you shoot a granny shot, you're more likely to use more energy than shooting it.= And you're bringing the ball down lower than you need to. I play Basketball and I know that shooting it the way we do is just.. well... it's been like that for as long as anyone can remember.=
