No Lillard in allstar game. He's extremely upset, will not come down just for 3 point shoot out. He should have made it in over CP3, IMO.
Interesting they'd put somebody somebody in the 3 Point Contest who only flops and relies on refs to score, no?
Curry - too small to throw that heavy ball so many times, will gas out Klay - legit chance at winning Reddick - lights too bright, choke job Korver - probably going to win Harden - dark horse, no one else in the competition takes as many difficult threes as he does IMO
He does have an outside chance. I wont be surprised if he wins or comes in last. Three point contest is about who gets hot. Often who we consider the best shooter , loses. I mean Kevin Love and Paul Pierce have won in recent years. James is around the same level if not better 3pt shooters than them. I just hope he wins for trolling purposes. lol
I think it would be cool if they did a round that was an extra 3-4 feet behind the line. See who has some real range.
So ironic because when the 3pt contestants were first announced I was wishing he'd be in it. Always felt Harden could be a naturally good pure 3 point shooter. We'll find out, so excited to see it and he'll be battling his main 2 competitors in MVP race and 2 guard race. Also has history with Wes Matthews. This is going to be one of the better shootouts in recent years
Just like some people are better at in-game dunks than AS ones, I think Harden is better at in-game 3s than AS 3s.
Wow. What is the 3-point lineup this year? Harden Curry Thompson Korver Irving? That's insane! Can't wait to watch it!
Just figured it out. He won POTM twice in a row and planning on winning it for the rest of the year. Future awards this year ... - 3 pt king - all start MVP - Scoring champ - Defensive champ - Regular season MVP - Finals MVP
