I'll bet ya that Rondo will at least play in Rookie/Sophmore game. Can't remember, did he play in the Rookie game last year? If he didn't, can he play for the sophomre squad? I hope he does, he'll put on a good show.

He should start for the sophomores. I'd like to see him in the skills competition but I doubt he gets an invite.

Speaking of 3 pointers, did you know that TA is shooting 0.445 from downtown?
I'd be willing to bet that his average will come down, but currently that beats Posey, Ray, and House. Who'd have thought?

did they announce the 3 point contests participants yet cuz they already announced the dunk contest ones and thats usually last. Anyways its Gerald Green, Rudy Gay, Dwight Howard, and Jomario Moon. Pretty good cuz all of these guys are big dunkers. Im pickin Gerald to win it again.

its kind of a joke for a player to be in an allstar contest when they average less than 5 points a game.

Speaking of speaking of 3-pointers, did you know that Tony has taken 25 of them, while Posey has taken 108, Ray has taken 234, and House has taken 159?

Who would have thought?

Yep, and I assumed everyone else would too. Tony isn't a chucker and has always had a high fg percentage, because he doesn't settle for many jumpers. In the past he was a crappy 3 point shooter and it looks like he's improved that over the summer.

God, if Rajon gets passed over by friggin' Daniel Gibson there's no justice. What a joke if that's the case...

Poor Gerald...I feel for the kid. It's one thing to be an arrogant, cocky jerk on and off the court coming out of high school. But Gerald's really the opposite. He deserves better than being the poster child for kids that really should've gone to college first. I hope he makes it...

Agreed on all accounts.

I have no idea what Minnesota is doing giving him no time at all. While he is poor defensively and struggles with the fundamentals, he can score and has quite a bit of untapped potential. I fail to see how playing Greg Buckner over Gerald Green helps out a team with 6 wins half way through the year going through a rebuilding/development year.
