LOS ANGELES Its the moment weve all been waiting for (at least for the last few weeks). In a matter of hours, Ray Allen, the most prolific three-point shooter in NBA history, and Paul Pierce, the defending champion and self-proclaimed best shooter in NBA history, will face off in the leagues Three-Point Shoot Out.

There are other guys out there, too. Most notably Kevin Durant, as well as the Heats James Jones, the Cavs Daniel Gibson and the Warriors Dorrell Wright, but lets be honest, you dont really care.

If both Pierce or Allen fail to come through, there will be no consolation. The night will have been a waste. Or at least until Blake Griffin jumps over a car and makes the world a better place. But for now, its all about the Cs. Ray and Paul, with three point history on the line.
