Rudy Gobert All-Star watch

Rudy being snubbed reminds me of when AC Green was chosen back in the day over Karl Malone. Karl went on to score 61 that night. And ate souls and said a big F U! To the league. I don’t expect Rudy to go for 61. But I do expect some deep emotions and a mad mootha phooka tonight.

But I knew it would happen. The NBA is about offense. They could care less about the defensive side of the ball. I fear if they had it their way, they would disallow defending and let the offense score 200 points a game with mesmerizing circus flying tricks and dunks. Kind of like the all star game. Sad that it’s lost all competitiveness.
 
I know everyone here is like "perfect, I wanna see angry Rudy" etc. but honestly I just want this dude to get the gratification he deserves.

He is the epitome of someone who's internalized constraining his game and doing every little thing for his team in order to get wins. He is so prideful, and it hurts so ****ing much to see the likes of Lamarcus ****ING Aldridge get this ahead of him.

I'm heartbroken for him. He deserves this. I hope someone blows their ACL and he goes instead of them-- and I hope he gets to go and fill in for the following 5 years or so.

As for Donovan makign that post about "being snubbed" -- come on, man. Yours is a meh snub, Gobert's is one of the worst I've seen in the last 5-10 years.

Anthony Davis isn't going, so Rudy is likely going, but like he said, it wouldn't be the same.

edit: nvm, he may or may not go. I guess his injury isn't as bad as I thought and he might return to play regular games before the all-star game.

If he gets traded, he will play in the game. If he isn't traded, the Pelicans will keep him benched. I doubt either way Rudy goes, it's usually reserved for injuries.
