Brooks in 3pt contest? 

Post#1 » by Rocketz973 » Wed Feb 3, 2010 11:45 pm

Has there been any word on whether or not Aaron Brooks will be in the 3pt Contest? Stats alone suggest he should.

Even if they said he was awarded to go, he'd say no.

His cousin passed away.

He could do it in memory of his cousin. Or are they gonna wait another week and 1/2 to have his funeral on a saturday? I think any kind of positive attn on a national stage will be good for us b/c we get no respect from the league and refs. I've seen crappy players on other teams that get more foul calls than AB when he gets hacked. It's annoying.

Billups, Pierce, Curry, Cook, Gallinari, Frye.

No Brooks.

:(

I questioned it, too. That is, until I saw Pierce has drained 78 3-pointers at 44.8%. That's pretty dang good.

Doesn't mean he's got a quick release. You have to shoot FAST in the contest.

pierce is actually taking ray allen's role of the 3pt shooter for boston...not really but he's really good from 3pt line, and ray allen **** sucks such a fantasy bust piece of **** . if brook were to be there he would take frye's spot, or if cook didnt win last year hehe
