  Définition

  Boast. A shot from the backcourt hitting the rear sidewall, far sidewall, and front wall.

  Note :

  This shot goes from sidewall to sidewall, then barely touches the front wall before dropping shorter than any other shot in the game. Because of the reverse spin it gets from the first sidewall, it must be hit very hard to force it to skid forward from the second sidewall to the front wall. (...) [Executed] successfully, [the boast] can be a show stopper as the big whack into the first wall dies into a nothing ball up front.
