Bonner vs Novak, lets get it started!!!
west 3pt shooters
Gonna choke and is too slow anyway, Novak will on him tbh.
Bonner probably ends up making all the shots except for the money balls...
I hope he does good. I'm glad they finally put him in there
Jonathan Santiago @itsjonsantiago
Paul George, Kyrie Irving, Steve Novak, Ryan Anderson, Matt Bonner and Steph Curry are your 3-point contest shooters.
Darnell Mayberry @DarnellMayberry now
East dunk contest participants: Gerald Green, Terrence Ross, James White. West participants: Eric Bledsoe, Jeremy Evans, Kenneth Faried.
Congrats, Matt Bonner. It's actually well deserved and long overdue.
Good luck
Nice to see Gerald Green in the Dunk Contest.
Curry, Anderson and Bonner should kill it.
Good for Matt. I don't think he will do too great; his form is not well suited to picking balls up, and his slow release will challenge him to get through all the racks. Plus, we all know how clutch Matty is under the bright lights.
That being said, he definitely deserved it. He's been top of the league in 3-pt shooting for years now, including a first place finish. For him to be overlooked again would be a sham. Also good to see a Spur reppin' in the contest, again.
ha saw this on TNT too
good luck red rocket.
cuz when the pressure is on and all eyes are on him ( just like in the playoffs )
he vanishes..................
hes gunna make the least shots out of all 6 particpants tbh
I don't think he'll do all that well, but the recognition is nice.
How awesome would it be if we traded him right before All-Star weekend haha
IMO Bonner will make similar big man appearance as Dirk or Bird. He will get no less than 2nd place
someone said in a tweet when Bonner does 3 point contests he always banks in the money ball, wonder if he tries that during the real thing.
Tbh his release is too slow for the contest, doubt he makes it through all the racks. Im pulling for him though.
Gerald Green may give James White a run for his money
Paul George and Kyrie will get eliminated after the first cut
Man the East has a serious team.

As for how Bonner will do, I guess it'll depend how comfortable he is out there. If it's like he's shooting at an empty gym, he's going to win. In practice, the guy literally knocks down >90% of his three-pointers.
The Spurs have had great shooters over the years but Bonner holds records in the different three-point shooting drills the Spurs have that no one could ever touch. For example, the Spurs have a timed drill where each player shoots 20 three-pointers at each of the five spots along the arc. Hedo Turkoglu had the record for a long time at 82, IIRC. Then Matt Bonner came along. The last I've heard, Bonner holds the record with a ridiculous 97 out of 100.
In an empty gym, Bonner may be the best three-point shooter who has ever lived. No joke.
