Kapono was a machine, one of the best (maybe top 3) in this contest (I think he has the record for more points cumulated in 2 three-points contest’s finals in a row (with previous system with no money-balls rank and no 3 points ball). Steph Curry won 2 of these contests, I hope he will win at least 1 more, to tie the record of 3 three-points contest won of Larry Bird and Craig Hodges. He would definitely confirmed that he is the best 3-pointer of all-time (if it’s not done yet).

[@0neieer877]

obviously is the best 3 point contest is fun to watch but its just a contest

[@jasonsykes8244]

Are you telling me the best shot record is still from someone in the 1980s? Yet we are in the era of the best shooters? They had to give 4(8 more points) more money balls to beat his score. That is a shame.

[@jasonsykes8244]

Then they added 2, 3 point balls.

I can't believe in 2001 is when they started calling it a 3pt shot. Be 2001 they were calling it a long distance shot.

[@Barbecuechicken2012]

chick hearn coined the term 3pt shot along with a ton more phrases we use today including slam dunk look him up hes legendary announcer

[@millypoo7713]

Isn't it because of the sponsor AT&T and before cell phones the phrase "long distance call?" That's gotta be it. Announcers used to call the shot 3-pointers during regular season games. "Long distance" was obviously a play on words to accommodate AT&T who was the sponsor.

Yeah thats some oldhead ass thing for coaches to be teaching. Nothing wrong with using your left thumb to help the ball come off the release smoother aslong as that ball is going straight. Some people flick their whole left hand with the thumb, that is the problem with shots going all over the place, flicking the thumb but left hand is straight don't cause problems
