And even so, I don't think fading back a foot on a turnaround or getting closer two foot by spinning off a shoulder into a hook shot would make much of a difference. Think of it this way, Kareem could hit the sky-hook out to about 15-feet (though not usually as far out). If he started the move off a post-up, but just had bad position, that's still a post-move, and at the very least a back-to-the-bucket move. Never heard a post-move described that way.

But isn't it the position at the point of release the counts and not the starting position? “… start closer to 10 feet from the bucket …”
