Re: Three Point Shootout Players Announced
Is Nash going to be passing the ball to Richardson?

Re: Three Point Shootout Players Announced
Definitely could've made better choices than Raja Bell. Kyle Korver and Wally Szczerbiak immediately come to mind.

Even then, he'll shoot Antoine Walker-esque percentages.

Re: Three Point Shootout Players Announced
I know Raja Bell is a wild choice but he's been on fire lately. Nobody really picture him as a great shooter. lol Oh well, anything can happen on the Suns' team.

Re: Three Point Shootout Players Announced
Ray, you better win.
i like the Dirk pick but i dont think he can hoist 25 balls in less than a minute. i think he'll miss a couple of balls on the last rack due to running out of time. his shooting motion is kind of slow

Re: Three Point Shootout Players Announced
Hope everyone has fun with this competition this year, because I think we all know who it will be going to in the future after his draft.

Re: Three Point Shootout Players Announced
Yeah, Morrison will kill next year. Don't forget, though, he's only a junior, so he might not declare this year, although it's likely.
