    I say Yes only to Dirk.
  • Cleveland Buck
    Dirk and Mark Jackson yes. Vince Carter is borderline. No to the rest of them.

    No to all of them. Its the Hall of Fame not the Hall of the good and very good.

  • KnightXC1
    Horry - on the bubble but will probably get in
    Jackson - no
    Hill - yes
    Marbury - haha no
    Carter - not even close
    Rodman - probably should be
    Kemp - no
    KJ - maybe but not likely
    Wallace - probably not because of his reputation
    Dirk - he continues to play at a high level for a couple years then yes.

    I do love this thread as it lets me gauge other people's NBA knowledge... pretty much anyone who has said yes to Horry should never try to talk NBA again.
  • september63
    Ill say this about Robert Horry and his 7 NBA titles. In his 16 yr career Horry averaged 7.0 PPG. In the playoffs it was 7.9. No way he gets in!!
  • Hulk Smash
    I say yes to Rodman and Nowitzki.
    Tough call on Horry imo.

    Yes's are bolded. Hill because it's the basketball HOF as stated earlier. Nowitzki is in with a couple more good years, which I think he'll certainly get.

    Rodman is a no brainer to me. He's arguably the best rebounder ever, and was a key player on two of the defining dynasties in NBA history.

    He might be top 20 but he not in the conversation for best ever.

    The basketball hall of fame covers both College and NBA.
  • Laley23
    Robert Horry - You serious?
    Mark Jackson - Yes
    Grant Hill - Yes (mostly because of Duke, and early years with Pistons)
    Stephon Marbury - In the words of Keyshawn Johnson....C'Mon Man!
    Vince Carter - No
    Dennis Rodman - Yes (easiest choice on here)
    Shawn Kemp - No
    Kevin Johnson - No (toughest choice on here)

    I am aware of that it doesn't change my opinion on any of those players.
  • SQ_Crazies
    Too bad your opinion doesn't mean shit and most of that list will probably get in. It's not like the baseball HOF, shitting on the court will get you into the basketball HOF.

    Here is my take anyways:

    Robert Horry - Yes, lots of championships and some big highlights, he'll get in for being a championship caliber journey man.
    Mark Jackson - Yes
    Grant Hill - Yes, this might be the most obvious choice here.
    Stephon Marbury - No.
    Vince Carter - Without a doubt.
    Dennis Rodman - Yes.
    Shawn Kemp - Possibly, but he actually may not get in.
    Kevin Johnson - Yes.
    Rasheed Wallace - No.
    Dirk Nowitzk - Obviously yes.

    Must be why 139 Players TOTAL have been inducted and 86 TOTAL NBA Players have been inducted since they started in 1959.

    Your like the town drunk on here only dumber.
