Hypothetically, say I’m really good at three pointers. For a free throw, an I allowed to move back as far as I want? Could I shoot it from half court? What is the rule on backing up to the 3pt line or beyond ?

Is there any rule against throwing a really high pitch that somehow crossed the plate in the zone?

Like an ephus pitch, but even higher. Or like a slow pitch softball type of pitch. What would prevent a pitcher from doing that and throwing the hitter off on timing? Is there a ceiling?
