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

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.

This is why I hate how the All Star game participants are determined. I believe one year Yao Ming hadn't even played a game but was voted in due to the voters in China. We see the same thing with Kobe and even Allen Iverson iirc

They are still fun to watch, especially if you have players in it you actually like.

No they're not. It's God awful basketball in which the players blow each other, admiring their game and athleticism and shenanigans as if it's so amazing when no one is playing any defense.

There's nothing competitive or natural about it.

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.

Lol. If Favors is putting up those ridiculous numbers he's in 100%. Coaches will vote him in at the very least.

Last few minutes are usually competitive if the game is close.
 
Gobert should and will be an all-star several times in his career. I'm stoked that it's just his 2nd year and he's already shown how gutsy and badass he's gonna be. The following song comes to mind:

I enjoy watching the all star game.
 
I make more of an effort to watch summer league games than I do ASG.
