Hayward made all stars!!!!!!!!!

In what world does Jordan deserve it? Our concern was that Rudy's numbers weren't great, but DeAndre's are even worse. Such a joke.
 
STARTERS: Stephen Curry, James Harden, Kevin Durant, Kawhi Leonard, Anthony Davis

RESERVES: Russell Westbrook, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, DeMarcus Cousins, Marc Gasol, DeAndre Jordan, Gordon Hayward.
 
Bummer for Gobert. I think it was more important for Hayward's confidence to get in though.
 
Congratz to Hay.

I never thought Jordan would make it over Gobert. I never thought he would get it.
 
The only thing Jordan has over Gobert is few more rebounds. And I guess he has been in league longer and plays in LA. That must have been deciding factor. Coaches probably felt he deserves it now as his single chance as from next year and on Gobert will be perennial All Star.
 
I think this may be an ideal outcome. I can see Hayward feeling he had earned it, and dwelling on why he didn't. Rudy has less years in the league and I feel like he will use it for fuel to go into beast mode. I'm interested to see how they both play tonight.

This. Too bad I have to work early tomorrow and won't be able to watch. :(
 
Way to go Hayward! Woot woot


No Gobert!? BS. I'd take him over Thompson and Jordan.

RIP lakers bigs.
 
DeAndre Jordan - 12.5 PPG, 14 RPG, 1.8 BPG, 69% from the field. 30-17 team record.

Rudy Gobert - 12.8 PPG, 12.6 RPG, 2.5 BPG, 66.4% from the field. 29-18 team record.

It's basically a coin flip between those two stats wise. Jordan is more well known than Gobert and plays in LA. Nine seasons in the league against four for Rudy. Not all that surprising at all.

Now, I obviously believe Gobert is the better player without a doubt. I'm just not surprised. We should be ecstatic for Hayward though.

Gobert might win DPOY this year and has many more seasons to compete for an all-star spot in the future. We have him locked up for at least five more years too. I agree with Cy that Hayward definitely needed it more than Rudy.

Maybe Hayward realizes that he became an all-star playing in Utah and not anywhere else heading into free agency.

I'm happy as **** that we got one player in. I was worried both would miss out because of coaches and players splitting votes.

Bummer FWIW the hosts of The Starters all had Rudy in

With Paul and Griffin injured, they probably figured they had to fit a Clipper in.

Hopefully this pisses Rudy off even more.
 
Disappointed for Rudy. Can understand why Jordan was selected. Clippers should have somebody representing their team as good as their record is. But still think Rudy should have made it.
