    Re: Why is Dame "considering the three point contest?"

    Good lord. That'd be nuts. With all the committments the all stars already have... have some of them shoot all day on their one time off for a week during the season. :MARIS61:

    Gives him more opportunities to work on his game while spending less time with the other PR commitments?

    Re: Why is Dame "considering the three point contest?"

    Cool. I just saw in Quick's tweet that he was doing the three-point shootout and the dunk contest. He didn't mention the skills challenge, so I thought he may have passed on it.

    Re: Lillard in dunk contest.

    I don't get the idea of a pro athlete being "tired" by participating in All Star weekend.

    Re: Why is Dame "considering the three point contest?"

    Jason Quick ‏@jwquick 29m

    Hold up everyone: Aaron Goodwin says he said Damian Lillard "would do" the three-point contest, not that he is in the competition


    apparently its not official he is in the 3 point contest. Maybe he actually hasn't been invited yet, if thats the case it is fairly stupid of the NBA to leave off all the Blazers from the 3 point shooting contest.

    Re: Why is Dame "considering the three point contest?"

    I think he'll get the invite. I think the NBA would like to have that record broken as the first player to take part in every event.

    Re: Why is Dame "considering the three point contest?"

    He's not in a large market. If he was, this would be getting front page and all the cameras following him to every event. Even if Lillard does it, it'll just get mentioned. But if it was someone like Melo, it would be getting stories all day. So I wouldn't be so sure.

    Or he might find his stroke and get back on track.
