Because Bell has made a shit load of 3s this season.

[Obstructed_View]

Richardson? He's still in the NBA?

[Horry For 3!]

Ray Allen leads the league with most made 3pters and Raja Bell is right after him.

Allen 151 3s
Bell 114 3s
Arenas 109 3s
Billups 104 3s
Bibby 101 3s

Richardson? He's still in the NBA?
Yeah. Richardson sucks. He only has 40 3s this season :lol

[boutons_]

Raja Bell has a good 3G%

The big Q is why is QRich?

His 3G% ranks him 99th in the League.

[T Park]

didn't Q Rich win it last year??

Champion gets to defend his title.

[Horry For 3!]

didn't Q Rich win it last year??

Champion gets to defend his title.
I believe so....I don't think he has a chance this year though.

[SuperManu!!!]

Who the NBA decides who is going to the 3point contest?

[boutons_]

ah, right, Q's the defending champion.

[smeagol]

Richardson? He's still in the NBA?
I used to hate it when Q made a 3, back in his days with the Suns, and he would do that stupid “horn” sign.

I guess he has not been doing to many of those in NY. :lol

[mavsfan1000]

Jason Terry will win the contest.

[sanman53]

Q-rich???????

[mavsfan1000]

Q Richardson really proved himself this year. :lol. Seems to me they forgot someone.

[ABDENOUR POWER]

Billups all the way.

[himat]

you think terry will win? no chance buddy billups all the way.

[reader]

I like Raja Bell, 2nd in 3pointers made, 9th in 3pt FG %, plus he is comfortable taking quick shots.

[mavsfan1000]

you think terry will win? no chance buddy billups all the way.
I like Terry's shooting form. It seems easy for him to make 3's. Billups would be my second choice.

HOw in the hell did Richardson get in there with a 31.3% in 3point shooting??????

He won last year. They always get to defend their title. That is why Leonard defended his last year, after missing almost the entire first half of the season with the achilles injury.

[Spurologist]

None can check Bowen in a corners only 3 pt contest

[Marklar MM]

None can check Bowen in a corners only 3 pt contest

That is the only damn 3 pointer he takes. :rolleyes

[JamStone]

I like Dirk to win it this year.

If the 3-pt contest consisted of only corner 3-pointers, Bruce Bowen would definitely be selected.

[Tek_XX]

That is the only damn 3 pointer he takes. :rolleyes

And yet teams still leave him open. Don't fix what isn't broken.

[FreshPrince22]

Chauncey is going to be awful if his thigh is still bothering him. He hasn't shot the ball well at all from distance since Kwame kneed him in the thigh.

[mavsfan1000]

Dirk or Terry for the win than. An all mavs 3 point finish would be great.
