    I'd really like to see Novak in this and compete against someone like Kapono, but I think he's just not popular enough or on a good enough team...

    Mason can really shoot the ball well.

    They should add Morror for the lulz, undrafted, shooting 50%

    House is a complete streak shooter, no thanks.

    I'm not a fan of Bibby being in there. Give me Tony Morrow over him (Novak if he got more run by this time)

    I think they should have a standard way of choosing this...ya know? Why make it subjective like the dunk competition when there are statistics that can help select the true best 3 point shooters.

    I'd pick the top two players based on 3 point % (with a certain required amount taken), the top three for 3s made, and the most recent active 3 point champion that didn't already qualify.

    This year it would be:

    Anthony Morrow
    Matt Bonner
    Rashard Lewis
    Danny Granger
    Peja Stojakovic
    Jason Kapono

    Anthony Morrow and Ray Allen should of been in it.

    Allen has been the snub of the whole all-star break so far.
