That said I no longer look forward to the three point contest after learning that the winner is always the player with the highest 3 point percentage among the participants. Used to catch it whenever I had a player in the 3 point contest, but then the revelation on how it works kinda disappointed me. Now I just look through all the 3 point percentages of the participants once the name list is out.


This isn't true. Likely just coincidental from the sample size you looked at.

You have an official statement on that ? And what you saw does confirm it ?

I correctly predicted the winner of the 3 point contest 2 seasons in a row after noticing it. I must have pretty good luck if it isn't true. Sadly this hypothesis can only be tested out during the ASG itself, which will only occur next season.

I do hope you're right. At least it would bring back some magic to my ASG. I do admit it's a small sample size (just 2 seasons of me correctly predicting the 3 point contest winner), so I might just be lucky. That sad, I'm wondering if I should actually go data collecting during the next ASG, or shall I just continue to enjoy the game since you said it isn't true (tho it's hard to be convinced without any proof).

Oh that's great to know. Thanks a lot, you've basically restored my faith in the 3 point contest now.

btw, i just noticed that in the last 3pt contest of my division there was a draw between 3 players in the first round (20 points each), one of them a player of mine, and my player just didn't play the final round, only the other two players... what's the criteria to define which player plays the final round in the 3pt contest in situations like these?

I am into the sweet 16 of BBM 2. Next week will be my toughest challenge. Thanks again for your support.

BTW, you had a nice run in BBM Tier 1. Congrats on that.

If I have had any success this season, I do owe it in part to a post you made once awhile back, so I'll say thanks as well. I picked a poor time to experiment in my last game, and I thought my opponent might be shifting towards a 3-2 zone so I logged in a few minutes before the match started and tried out my "big" lineup for the first time instead of the motion that would have allowed me to move on easily. Win or lose tonight, "butter hands" Barrera probably won't see another paycheck.

Good luck man, sorry I was a little terse with you earlier. It just rubbed me the wrong way that you started making demands because you did well in stage 1 of BBM.
