Will Hayward and/or Gobert go the the All-Star game this year?

[gregbroncs]

Lillard, Aldridge, Cousins and Thompson are not locks.

And it's really pathetic and sad that Kobe probably is. The guy hasn't been all star quality in a while. The All star game is meaningless if it's voted on by fans. Sorry but I put no stock in an all star system that routinely puts guys that obviously don't belong in the starting lineup.

In the Eastern Conference they'd both have a shot. Maybe even Favors too, if he keeps progressing.

If Gobert puts up 16/12/2.5as/2.8bl-type numbers, that would put him near Dwight Howard and Alonzo Mourning territory. Those numbers are also better than what Marc Gasol puts up. He'd have to be in the discussion even in the West, though Gasol might still get the nod.

Keep in mind, Gobert had a run last year where he was putting up 16/14/2as/3blks. If he'll make his free-throws he can score 18ppg. He'll get a lot of attempts.

Barring injury of course...
Locks to be in the All-Star game:
Davis
Curry
Thompson
Harden
CP3
Lillard
Gasol
Griffin
Westbrook
Durant
Cousins
Aldridge
Kobe

That leaves 2 spots left. Gobert & Hayward would have to beat out the following players:

Green
Conley
Randolph
Howard
Leonard
Parker
Duncan
Nowitzki
Jordan

Damn

Favors should be in this conversation

 

[Miggs]

Hayward will. Gobert has no shot unless he's putting up about 15-16 points a night.

 

[Miggs]

Favors should be in this conversation

He has no shot IMO. He could be at 21/11/2 and he still wouldn't get in IMO. Unless we were a top 4-5 team in the west I guess.

The problem Gobert is going to have is that they did away with Center as a position to vote for. So he is competing with all players that play in the post in the west. So he is in the same boat Favors is in.

Hayward on the other hand has a chance if he hits that 20/5/4 he was so close to last year and we have a good record. His competition isn't near as stout. These are the wings in the west that Hayward is completing with.
Harden
Kobe
Lenard
Parsons
Tyreke
Durant
Wiggins
Thompson
Gay

I think Gordon is quite a bit better than any other staring wing in the west. Harden and Durant are the only 2 that are a step above Hayward. Kobe is still a problem because of the fan vote. So there is a legit chance Hayward could get in.

I'd say no to both. Hayward will probably be close to it but would end up gettin' snub. The west is loaded with talent so it ain't easy gettin' in.

Kobe is a lock because he always wins the fan vote. Even when he's not playing.
.
I'm pretty sure he could tear his ACL in the 1st game of the season and still make the stupid *** all star game.
