    Aaron Brooks should really enter the 3-pt shooting contest next year! I wonder why he hasn't. He's a really good shooter and I think he would have a real good shot at winning it. I remember I saw him on TV in college in a contest and he won it. What do you guys think? :) Yes or no?

    He should definitely enter it next season, its almost a guaranteed win for him. He would also get a lot more attention from around the league, and get even more recognition. Possibly upping his trading value even more through the roof.
    ( not that i want him traded )

    He would dominate... he's cold blooded about it and shoots with supreme confidence. AB is it!

    NO.

    The 3 point contest forces shooters to make small changes to their stroke thus effecting in game shooting after the break.

    I remember reading about Brooks taking on Novak and Bullard in an informal 3-pt. contest in his rookie year and schooling both of them. If it was a "Four Feet Beyond the Line" 3-pt. contest, Brooks would dominate the league.

    That's what Berkman said about the HR derby.

    You know what I want to see? A three point contest with the worst three point shooters in the league, Yao(who's made a total of two 3's in his career) could enter.

    Yao's percentage is actually pretty good considering how many he has taken. I'd like to see Shaq vs. Ben Wallace.

    he should have the racks about 5 ft behind the line though if he wants to win
