    Who do you guys want to participate? I personally want Luther Head to participate. This guy is lights out from beyond the arc.He just delivered 5 three pointers yesterday. If Luther does participate, I can see him taking it. :dribble:

    I think that it's possible that Gerald Green could be invited to both the 3-Point Shootout and the Dunk Contest (though it is very unlikely). Gerald is shooting an excellent percentage from 3, he's making and taking a lot, and he's fairly consistent with it (except for last night, he was kind of off).But, the 8 guys I want to see in it this year are (in no order):Dirk NowitzkiRay AllenKyle KorverBrent BarrySteve NashMike MillerDamon JonesGerald Green

    I would throw Kevin Martin and JR Smith(if he can of course) in there.

    I like your list except for one person, Bruce Bowen. To me, there two type of 3 point shooters. 3point shooters off the dribble(Allen,Billups,Miller, Korver) then theres spot up 3 point shooters(Bowen,Battier,Nocioni). Spot up 3 point shooter have never done well in 3 point contests, I dont know why, but they just havent.

    Raja Bell was going to do it last year but he couldn't go because of some family thing so I'd like to see him give it a shot. He hasn't done well enough this year to get a chance though so I hope Nash is in it. I agree with SunnyD's choices, that would be a pretty good group.

That's a pretty solid list though, all those guys are definitely worthy of being in it.

    What about Steve Nash too....I think it would be high drama if Dirk and Nash battled it out for the title...

    I would expect at least Dirk, Ray Allen, and Steve Nash to be invited and Allen to take it, he's been sick from beyond the arc this season and for some extra entertainment, throw Shaq in there...

(and don't give me a smart-a answer, because I know what you meant by "sick")
