No Spurs will make it. We usually have one of the top 3 long distance shooters, and they never get invited.
..the 3-pt shoot-out?
I wanna ask, I have 3 days to review those highlights before the Spurs' next game vs. the charlotte....
thoughts?

Hopefully Josh Smith is healthy enough for the dunk contest. Any shooting guard who blocks ten shots in a game should get an automatic invite.
JR Smith is also injured but he'd be nice in it. Earl Boykins would be fun to watch. Damien Wilkens is a good dunker. Hmmmm ... I'll have to think of this more.
Yeah I wanted Josh Smith too, but he just went to IR. Hopefully he gets healthy quick. He already said he was going to be in it.
they invited Steve Smith once in the 3pt-shootout but he didn't survive in the first round.
josh Smith, what team he is playing?
After a quick search, Amare has already confirmed he'll be in the slam dunk contest. He looks stronger this year and could tear up that compe ion.
I still want Brent Barry to compete so he can be the only player to win a 3-pt contest AND a dunk contest.
Chances = slim. Not because he can't shoot. Just because he likely won't be there.
If he got the invite and was having a hot day, he could give Peja a run for his money.
...I'm watching some NBA dunks video right now and Brent "Skywalker's" dunk was really amazingI still want Brent Barry to compete so he can be the only player to win a 3-pt contest AND a dunk contest.
.
AMARE? yeah !! great dunker, too
LeBron James when asked last wk didn't rule out participating. You think he could win?
Hawksjosh Smith, what team he is playing?
I think Manu could enter and win, problem is he'd need to get a couple of Lakers down under the basket trying to stop him.
Lebron vs. Amare would be fun. The biggest thing is the league needs to change its stupid ass rules to give the guys more freedom to go all out.
thanks, Kori.
Dunk Contest: Earl Boykins
3PT Contest: Shaq
I'd pay money to watch em, and I've always wanted to see Shaq's 3 point stroke.
Rasho on the dunk contest. And put Stephen Jackson in there too just because I want to test a theory that he could get himself suspended even if he was the only one on the court.
How about Dwight Howard? He has some nice hops.
i think hoiberg would be invited..anybody thought of our own Beno in the 3-pt?
I read an article about amare stoudamire accepting a bid to the dunk contest, i wanna see vince in it this year, Jrich is always fun to watch
and in the 3 point shootout... i heard awhile back that Voshaun leonard wanted to defend his le even tho he's injured for the season.... im sure if he's able to participate he'll be there since its in denver
I was going to mention hoiberg. Before his 0-5 stint a few days ago he was on pace to break the 3pt record. Kerr and Hodges are one and two and they have the astericked close range 3pt line when they did it. As it is he's still shooting 50% from beyond the arc.
Dunk Contest: Earl Boykins
3PT Contest: Shaq
I'd pay money to watch em, and I've always wanted to see Shaq's 3 point stroke.
i want Amare vs LeBron,too.that's interesting..
Too bad he's a PF/C.
Uh, so is Amare. Back in the day, Larry Nance WON the dunk contest, and he was a PF.Too bad he's a PF/C.
The only way the dunk contest becomes exciting again is if they raise the stakes and rescind the veterans restrictions. Imagine a 1 million dollar prize. Let addias or nike plaster their name all over it in exchange for putting up the money. Then you would see a great contest - players would be motivated to really come up with some new, innovative, amazing dunks in an effeort to win the ca$h.
Vince Carter
Steve Francis
McGrady
Bryant
maybe mix in the two Smith rookies
James
Stoudamire
etc.
I'd pay to see it.
how does allan houston looks these days? i remember him as the league´s no.1 threat from outside ( -a years ago )
If I could pick:
3-Point: Kyle Korver, Damon Jones, Hoiberg, Ray Allen, Peja, Dirk, Joe Johnson
Whatever, A dunk by a guy who is 7 foot doesn't look as athletic as a guy who's 6'6" putting it through his legs, or even Fred Jones who is 6'2"
