What is a cherry picker?
when I coached high school basketball I did this as a play once or twice before halftime, and it worked and you knew the other team gameplanned for it at the half; then we never ran it again. Got a free 4 points out of it, but I don't think it would work for long term
If a team started to do that, the opposing team wold just have to send a guy to guard him and end up playing 4 on 4.I also could see the league getting involved and making it so that all players had to be over half court by the 12 second mark on the shot clock. And couldn't leave until a shot went up.

It's kind of like Rondo gambling on defense, isn't it.
