    Dude...its a 30 seconds contest. He could do worst not joining the contest, like tripping on mud on a rainy day.

    Wow, didn't know DL did this too (along with all the other things he participated in that weekend). I'm surprised the media didn't make a bigger deal out of it back then.

    What do you think rest is?? All he has to do is shoot 3's for half a minute. That is literally nothing. He will consume more calories (calories are units of energy btw), eating a soft pretzel during someone else's shooting session. It is literally nothing to him...

    yesterday after the snow meltded in my town i went out on the field after a month of pause and practiced a bit and i was amazed that my shooting mechanics were very similar to EG i was even imagining my self as EG while shooting....and i was doing all this 100% unconsciously!

    I expect EGo to win. Actually I expect him to dominate. He's been shooting in that arena for a long time + I'd assume there are still some home court advantages given he prob still does live in the area.

    Ernie: How surprising was it....

    Charles: Rockets shoot more threes than anyone; Gordon probably was leader for 6th man of the year before he got hurt. Game of inches. It was Eric Gordon's night.

    Has a Rocket won it before? Good job, Eric!

    I have to admit...I got excited when I saw a Rocket had won it. I didn't see it live. But, saw it on an ESPN ticker and then watched it on NBA TV.

    Rockets have now had a 3 pt shoot out winner (Gordon) and a skills challenge winner (Beverley). Just need a slam dunk contest winner to complete the trifecta.
