Re(2): "Home run ball" - fact or fiction?

Its possible a true homerun (frontwall to backwall to frontwall without hitting the floor) could have been thrown at the old North Miami Amateur court but it would have still been hard to do. North Miami's court was advertised as 150 feet but I think it was more like 130. IMO it is impossible to throw a true homerun on a court the length of 175-180 feet. The shot George is talking about with the ball bouncing once could probably be done by someone with a very strong reverse. I remember this topic being discussed previously.
