    Does anyone think Aaron Brooks will and should be in the three point contest?
    He's second in the league in three pointers made, and shooting at 40%. That should be good enough right? Who else is in it, since we got confirmation that Channing Frye is gonna be in it. I think Danillo Gallinari is gonna make it also, and I really hope Aaron Brooks is gonna be in it too.

    When will we know who's in or who's not? I'm really curious about who's gonna make it to the 3 point contest because I'd like to shoot 3s from way downtown, watching it swish through the net. ;)

    I don't if he'd have a shot at winning against NBA-level talent. He seems better suited to hit the 3 while in motion... either off the fast break or coming around a pick.

    Still, I'd love to see him in it so that the Rockets might have some sort of representation in Dallas!

    I'm pulling for:
    Kevin Durant
    Aaron Brooks
    Danilo Gallinari
    Channing Frye
    J.J. Redick

    You serious about putting his name in the contest list?

    He's a great all round player that could create for his own shots and shoots the dagger when the game is on the line, but in the 3pt contest? Oh ouch.:p

    Well he is definitely not a horrible 3 point shooter. He shoots it at a pretty good clip, nearly 40% his last 2 years even though he only makes a little over 1 a game. He's got too many other skills than stand out by the 3 point line all game, but he certainly could.

    Hey, Channing Frye got named to the contest and he has fewer 3's than AB.

    I don't see why AB couldn't make it.
