If I HAD to choose one I'd go with KCP.
I like SJ but I'm not as much of a believer in his offensive game.

Who will be the next Piston All-Star?
Reggie Jackson without a doubt.
Kyle Lowry was an all-star lasts season so let's compare the stats between the two per 36mins as Lowry averaged 37 mpg to Jacksons 30.7 mpg.
Lowry: 20.6ppg 4.6rpg 6.2apg 2spg .4bpg with 2.8tpg on 42.7%fg 38.8%3pt and 81.1%ft
Jackson: 22.1ppg 3.8rpg 7.3apg 1spg .2bpg with 3.3tpg on 43.4%fg 35%3pt and 86.4%ft
I understand that by using per 36 were assuming Jacksons production stays constant which is a slight stretch but I still think with a season under his belt as the guy he can improve.

Re: Who will be the next Piston All-Star?
Ain't no way RJ or KCP will be an All Star in the near future.
East has:
IT
Kemba
Wade, Rondo, Butler
Kyrie
Middleton
Rose
Lowry, DeRozan
Wall, Beal
We'd have to be killing it for our guards to make it.
SJ has less comp so I'll say him

Re: Who will be the next Piston All-Star?
Lowry was a Toronto vote thing.
He wont sniff ASG maybe ever again.
Took him to turn 30 and a contract to finally get in shape.
His trajectory could be Billups, but I doubt it.
The way the offense is ran, theres no way KCP will ever be an all star here.
Realistically it's going to be Reggie. Tobias being only 24 is SCARY and we could have a player we have not seen close to his ceiling yet but Im still going with Reggie.

Re: Who will be the next Piston All-Star?
I said Tobias and I guess now I'll make my case. As has already been stated, there is some serious competition at guard, so even though Reggie Jackson would probably be more deserving, I think Tobias has a clearer path. Outside of that, I am a big believer in Tobias Harris. I think he has tremendous inside/outside scoring ability, I think he's a dynamic athlete and fun to watch. I believe that this year he will be featured more on offense with a full offseason with the team and at only 24 years old, he's ready to blow up. The all-star game doesn't care about defense, which would be his biggest draw back. If the Pistons continue to rise our players will get more notice and also, people will pay attention to him because he has the second biggest contract on the team, so that coupled with his expected (by me) spike in production, I think will get him noticed and get him selected sooner rather than later. Not this year, but probably in the next 2-3 years.

KCP. He will be getting 20ppg this year and his solid D will give voters no choice. Which of course means that Wade will get the All Star spot instead even when Wade only plays 15 games next year.

Re: Who will be the next Piston All-Star?
I'd go with Other (not currently on roster). It sucks but I don't think any of our other starters or rookies are likely to be All-Stars. Reggie has the best chance of the group though.

Re: Who will be the next Piston All-Star?
-RJ, KCP
The year after they make ECF. RJ and Dre will make it by their number. Coaches will vote KCP in because of his hustle and 2-way play.
- After they win the championship SJ will join them.
In other words, like the 04 Pistons they'll mainly be rewarded for winning as a team

Reggie was close last year, and you could argue he was more deserving than Wade given that he had a better season. I don't necessarily think it's impossible, but the stars will have to align for it to happen definitely. Kyrie, DeRozan, Lowry, Wall, Butler are pretty much locks as long as they don't get injured. So best case scenario every wild card spot is a guard, and he has to beat out It three out of Kemba, Wade, Middleton, and Beal. Possible but unlikely.

Boban via fan vote. He could be that gimmick vote that we've seen in other sports.
