Ok, so assume everyone is in their prime and it was just a 3pt shooting contest, who would you take?

1. Steph Curry
2. Ray Allen
3. Reggie Miller
4. Larry Bird
5. Other- who?

It was a tough call between Reggie Miller and Stephen Curry. Both outstanding three-point marksmen. But, if I have to pick one of them to count on, I have to pick Miller over Curry.

Nope, it'd be Klay. Klay would get the entire room a contact high and when Bird tried to talk that shit, Klay would be so stoned he wouldn't understand him. Klay wins by a mile.

Don't forget the immortal Craig Hodges


Don't know who I'd take, probably Larry.

Which one of you guys is finishing second?

That's what Larry Bird asked his competition when he entered the locker room before the inaugural Three-Point Shootout at NBA All-Star Weekend 29 years ago.

Sure enough, in each of the first three years of the contest, the other players had to battle for the right to capture second. Bird won in 1986, 1987 and 1988, and in the last one, he never even removed his warmup jacket.

Hornacek is not 5th, I don't think, but for biased reasons, I would want him in there.

All great shooters but it doesn’t mean they are the best for this contest. Bird was like Babe Ruth, called his shots. I would never want to face of with Bird in a competiton.

I would gladly take Bird
