It has to do with the luxury tax, which would probably still be expensive even after not having to pay Finley's contract anymore.

Because Kobe wants to finish the season and hopes that a rest will help heal his ailing finger. He knows the team needs him for the rest of the year, so he does not want to further aggrivate his injury and jeopardize his teams chances of making and succeeding in the NBA Playoffs.
Now, have you ever torn a ligament in your body? I have, in my ankle. Mine hurt, so I imagine his pinky hurts. I don't think he's a pussy. I think he is in pain. If you want to see Kobe longer than just the regular season, you should be happy he is thinking about his team, not himself.

That's a little extreme. I just don't like watching people chuck shots around all day.

We don't have shooters like that anymore.

just seeing craig hodges' name in there makes me cringe a little.
Headache in a Suitcase said:there are plenty of guys out there who shoot like craig hodges. he was a mediocre player who just happened to be able to shoot the lights out. he stuck out like a sore thumb in your list. even steve kerr was a much better player than hodges.
what the 3 point contest is missing is starpower that can actually shoot. there are plenty of second tier and lower guys who can light it up (albeit nash can certainly light it up, he just had a very bad night... such is life).

Yes, but Hodges set the record for the highest ever score in the three point shootout - which was tied last night by Kapono, but not broken.
He has to be included just for that. And the man three shootout titles in a row. Yeah, he was a crappy player otherwise, but you have to respect what he accomplished at the shootout.
