half of blake's attempts wouldn't count because he has his toe on the line so much.

I wanna see Eddie House in there.

i just want to see how quickly he can shoot all 25 balls.
25 seconds?

Trying not to be a homer (seriously):

With the way AK's been shooting the past couple weeks he deserves to be in it for sure.

Not one mention of RIP?

Dude led the NBA in 3pt shooting 2 years ago and hasn't gotten an invite.

Based on %'s of people who have shot enough, it would be.

1.Kapono
2.Jones
3.Nash
4.Parker
5.Gibson
6.RIP
7.Peja
8.Blake

All shooting 45%+

Rip hasn't gotten an invite because he isn't really a three point shooter. He has a midrange game and almost all of his threes are from the sides because they're closer. His percentages have been so high because he really only takes them when hes wide open and he doesn't that many.

Fisher isn't near good enough to make the 3-pt shootout.

maybe if the shot has to be taken with 1 second left. go against horry for clutch shooting.

J-Rich leads the league in makes and was 7/11 from downtown the other night. BEASTLY

Has anyone won the dunk and 3pt contests before?

I thi9nk sasha vujacic could dominate.

its close enough to practice that he could just make all of them blindfolded

The way the raps are shootin the 3 lately just send the whole team.

Antoine Walker. Hes so good at shooting 4s that this would feel like a layup drill.

The Raptors should all go.

Didnt Brent Barry win both?

I hope the fact that A.P declined last year doesnt mean they wont invite him this year...

Cigamodnalro · Post #38 » by **Cigamodnalro** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 3:12 pm

Brent Barry won both. Dunked from the Free Throw line one year, and made a ton of threes later on.

He never won the 3 point contest, came in 3rd in 03

Brent Barry "won" the dunk contest, but never won the 3 point shootout, he placed 3rd I believe back in 02/03...
