    Redd is also my pick. I would love to see Kapono compete.

    Ray Allen, Brent Barry and Peja Stojakovic hands down. I would also like to see Allan Houston participate in it, he's great from 3 point range. (43%)

    Reggie Miller is aging and very fast, I don't see him competing.

    Cuttino Mobley? Why?

    I think that they should pick elite shooters so that it is actually a good competition. I am tired of seeing David Wesley's and Antoine Walkers.

    I think that it would be great to see Shane Battier.

    I pick Peja to win it, and Ray Allen or Michael Redd to be in the finals with him.

    If I'm not mistaking the top 5 3 point feild goal % players go. There are other requirements though, but I dont know what they are.

    Sugar Shane? hahaha

    Better game situation shooter, he would not do well in rapid fire.

    Agreed, that was my point. They always need one "Antoine Walker" [​IMG] to miss nearly every shot in the competition. And all those of us who watched it last year saw Toine prove that he didn't deserve to be there.

    People want to see stars though, they would rather see Walker over Kapono.

    Michael Redd may not win it but he will be the guy who finishes before everyone else.One of the fastest releases I've ever seen.

    I think Peja will still win, although Redd and the others are all great shooters I think Peja has it hands down.
    How about Aaron McKie? Chauncey Billups? Aaron is tops in 3 pt % and Billups is 7th while Michael Redd is 45th.... (Not saying you need a high % to be in it, but i think these guys should get some consideration)

    Shouldn't Wade, Crawford or Baron participate? I always thought Eddie Jones lost his three point range. Steals seemed to be what he was best at. I myself go for Larry Bird here, lol just kidding, Michael Redd seems to be the popular choice at the moment so I'll go with him.

    Funny you should mention Baron,The regular season is just like the three-point contest for him,chuck as many three balls as you can and see how many are successful.

    Kyle Korver deserves to be in it. He's one of the top 5 three-point shooters and he's only a rookie.

    Eddie Jones never lost his 3-point range, that couldn't be any farther from the truth. Just last night against Boston he hit 5 triples! As we speak right now, EJ ranks FOURTH in the NBA in 3 pointers made, he is only behind T-Mac, Peja, and B-Diddy.

    damn accord, you just took the words out of my mouth.

    i think eddie should participate, but i don't think he would win, because his release is not as fast. same with ray allen, best pure shooter hands down, but takes some time to release at the beginning and then has to rush at the end.
