Jason Kapono wins 3-Point Shootout

Jason Kapono of the Miami Heat is the 2007 NBA 3-Point Shootout champion.

According to the Associated Press, "Kapono... beat stars Gilbert Arenas and Dirk Nowitzki with a final-round 24, just one shy of the event record. Kapono, the fourth-year pro who finally blossomed with the Heat this season, tied Mark Price's final-round record and fell just one point shy of Craig Hodges' overall mark with an impressive performance leading off the last round." He leads the NBA in 3-point shooting percentage, so I guess this win isn't a huge surprise, huh?

Re: Jason Kapono wins 3-Point Shootout

An actual exchange heard during a game earlier this season from the local Heat sportscasters Eric Reid and Tony Fiorentino:

Eric: Kapono lines up for a three... Kaboom!

Tony: He's looking good tonight, Eric.

Eric: Do you know what Kapono means in Hawaiian, Tony?

Tony: No, what?

Eric: Kaboom!

Tony: Really?

Eric: No.




OK, I guess you had to be there. Anyway, good for Kapono. He da man.
