Role Player Hollafame Class of 2018 Inductee: Toni Kukoc (10 points, 3 votes)
Roles: Super Sub, Stretch 4, little bit of everything
Notable stats: 1995-96 Sixth Man of the Year, 3-time NBA champ, 1993-94 All-NBA Rookie 2nd Team, career high season scoring average of 18.8 PPG with Chicago (98-99)
Why they never reached stardom: playing in the shadow of Hall of Famers, got kinda fat

brimstead, Friday, 29 June 2018 22:04 (five years ago) link

he was my fav laker during that era for sure

wonder what kerrs #s would look like if he played in todays nba. maybe a ceiling of reddick and a floor of anthony morrow?

Hall of Fam (Spottie), Friday, 29 June 2018 22:10 (five years ago) link

wait i forgot to put odoms rings in there lol

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Friday, 29 June 2018 22:14 (five years ago) link

good inductees....definitely considered bogues, odom, and kerr for my ballot but didn't end up going with them. camby is a great pick that i kind of forgot about. kukoc played for longer than i thought though the window where he was really good isn't all that long.

hope harper gets in next year, cool player who totally reinvented himself and ended up with a bunch of rings.

yeah ron harper was definitely a borderline all-star early on. kinda iggyish in that regard.

21st savagery fox (m bison), Saturday, 30 June 2018 01:17 (five years ago) link

yeah he was on really bad teams putting up #s. great parallel.
