I have personal goals ... I want to be an All-Star, and you might have a better chance if you start,” Mobley said. “But I want people to say, ‘Hey, he’s consistent.’ I want Steve (Francis) and me to be All-Stars, and making the playoffs gives us a better chance of doing that.” (The quote is in response to Rudy's saying that the team should take a "playoff" approach to their games) Is there any resentment on Mobley's part in his bench role, even though he's playing the majority of the minutes? I don't think so, but the man does have aspirations... ------------------
I don't blame him for having that goal. He has to stand in line behind Kidd, Payton, Stockton, and maybe Kobe (is Kobe on the ballot as forward or guard?) Plus Steve, who'll get consideration over Cat as well. Maybe in a couple years. ------------------
