I agree with not risking jail on the shot, but I think there is a difference between taking the shot in a game (where you are running to get as close to the basket as possible before the buzzer, and putting it up with a defender in your face), and a set halfcourt shot.  NBA players' stats would be a lot better in the latter scenario.  Steph Curry was 1-for-9 in that article, but I think Steph Curry would take the money and run (I'm not Steph Curry though).
Steph Curry has north of $250 million, so I doubt that.

 
Yup, no defender and being able to line it up and get your steps down is huge.
Pretty much, especially if your legs are strong enough.  The shot's a lot more difficult to accurately put where you want if you have to torque your body at all to get enough distance on it.  If you have enough juice in your legs to avoid any torque then it's all mechanics to get it around the rim.
