Unfortunately, Eddie's having a relatively poor season from 3-point land (for him).  Last year's clip was just insane.  Still would love to see him there. 

Can't imagine Ray does it unless (by some miracle) he makes the All Star team.  Can't imagine he makes the trip just for the contest.

Eddie is meant for this contest.  He could probably make all the shots with 20 seconds left on the clock.

Pierce on the other hand would have to step into all his shots.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

If Eddie gets in the contest, Lord knows he'd be the quickest to shoot all the balls around the arc.

I don't get it. Why not let Eddie in? I've seen far more inferior players than Eddie participate?
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I don't know that he would be perfect for it, actually. He jumps a lot off the ground. He uses a lot of energy to get his shot off. Normally its guys with effortless jumpers who win it. Eddie would get really tired by the last 2 racks, I think.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.
