    We are the team that shoots the most threes in the NBA and we have no one in the contest?? Is this a media conspiracy?

    Did Harden turn down the contest?

    It would take Harden too long to shoot his step back 3’s

    Because they want 3PT makers, not 3PT brickers.
    Rockets may take the most threes but are only 21st in 3PT%.

    Harden and Gordon are only real three point shooters

    Hasn’t Harden made the most threes in NBA this year?

    PERCENTAGE is paramount when you shoot same attempts.

    Can't guarantee that it's a night when Gordon actually hits his shots.

    We actually don't have any good 3pt shooters. I say Harden's our only decent one, and I wouldn't exactly say he's one of the best in the league.

    There should be some Rockets in the contest. It's a shoot-out, not a shoot-in, after all...

    I now will show myself out

    None of the Rockets "Shooters" are high percentage guys , they are volume shooters. Good enough to help you win games , not in the same ballpark as the really good high percentage shooters.
