role player hollafame - nominations

i'm willing to put rafer alston on here just because

cornbread maxwell. if only for his "jump on my back boys" speech and for going into the crowd in philly.

Vinnie "Microwave" Johnson
Sasha Vujacic
And if Bowen is on the list, so is Shane Battier

I think Dennis Rodman has a pretty good chance of making the HoF or at least he would if wasn't such a weirdo.

Anyway:

Andrew Toney
Byron Scott
Joe Dumars
Mychal Thompson
Jeff Hornaceck

Eddie Johnson
Marcus Camby
Charles Oakley
Roy Tarpley (so so sad)

Didn't see that Hornaceck and Oakley were above!

danny manning (his star days were short-lived but he still had a good shot after his knees went)
anthony peeler
walt williams

A.C. Green
Drazen Petrovic :(

yeah other than ewing it seemed like everybody on those knicks teams were role players

basically what i am saying is, charles motherfucking oakley

i also remember watching a game where dennis rodman actually put the ball up and scored and everybody laughed, both in the game, in the booth, and in my house

did you guys know that the suits charles oakley wore to games always contained threads matching the jersey color of the knicks' opponents that day??

Rodman was ridiculously good (seriously better than everyone else listed here.) Is he still not Hall eligible because he's playing in Finland or whatever?

tyrone hill was pretty tough. didn't know or didn't remember he had an all-star appearance!

serious question: how to formulate poll? separate polls by position or backcourt/frontcourt? just one poll and take top 5 vote gettas?

I never saw this before I love "Best roleplayer eveDETLEF".

ANTHONY MASON

RULES
you can vote for 5 players who have never been all-stars or all-nba. they've gotta be out of the league for at least 5 years. it's 2015. do math.

secret ballots to be emailed by clicking on my name. Poll open until...I dunno, end of February okay?

should we do nominations or something

muggsy bogues!

honorable mention for dudes like michael finley who had 1-2 all star seasons that they converted into 8-10 solid role player years of slowly diminishing performance

i feel like there's a slew of guys like this that almost made it/made it and quickly dropped off but maintained an overall solid game for several years

To clarify, eligible players did not play in the 2010-2011 season or later.

If a player was third-team NBA, is he eligible?

If a player was an all-star injury replacement, is he eligible?

i would still rather do the future ballot thing. i'm 25, I love watching old games when i can but i just don't know old rosters deeply enough to contribute more than what's already listed itt

No nom, pick 5
Third team nba is all nba, so disqualified
If you are voted to or played in all star game, you are disqualified

This HOF does not exclude other democratic actions you may wish to undertake

Just an update: I have received no votes. In the event of no votes, I will pick myself because I invented hall of fames.

I still kinda want to do this, this could be a thing

holy shit this thread is just a permanent blemish on the internet to remind everyone of what a flake i am

ps

I still kinda want to do this, this could be a thing

i dont have grad school this summer, i think i could pull this off

Okay, so I've compiled a list of everyone mentioned in this thread, but it's been some years so I think maybe a nominations thread is in order? But this is definitely happening this month.

serious question: how to formulate poll? separate polls by position or backcourt/frontcourt? just one poll and take top 5 vote gettas?

this is still a good question. we could do this all-nba style and one per position. or just top 5 votes?

what do we do? still taking noms? stilll have to have been out of the laegue since 2011? i would do top 5 positionless

yeah i think given thats its been some years, some more players would be eligible so we should have more nominations

have to have been retired for 5 years (end of 2012-13 season), no all-star selections or all-nba (all-defense v v obv ok). since its been a few years

other question: do yall want to pick 5 guys and just take top 5 vote getters, or should they be weighted (#1 gets 5 pts, #2 gets 4 pts, etc.) and the top 5 point getters get in?

rodman made the all star team twice r u allowing all stars or no.

no all-stars

also he is in the regular ol HOF

do you have a master list of those that have been nommed and are eligible?

need a player in FIBA hall but not NBA hall list

ive got the master list tho i need to skim through it and weed out ineligibles

starting to go through it now and there are some interesting disqualifications! ainge, antonio AND dale davis, sam cassell
