Rather than just select 8 guys for the 3 point shoot-out. The NBA should hold preliminary rounds to select the 8 guys. One representative per team (intra team competition can be held to determine the team representative). Hold h2h single elimination shootouts something like 15 minutes before games between two teams until you get down to 8. Fans love 3 point shootouts so this would help sell tickets to these games. Also we are not left wondering whether the 8 man field is leaving out some of the best guys (at least not as much).
