bball ref has him at 6.1% hof probability. feel like he's only in if you're grading him on a '60s celtics role player curve
his #1 comp on bbref is bob cousy (slightly more than a role player but still) so props to you for this

lowe and howard beck talked about a lot of this on the newest lowe post. i didn't realize how weird and opaque the selection for the basketball hall is! like it's not even really public who's on the honors committee that votes on hof entry.

oh nice gonna check that

the selection process makes the hof really un-fun to talk about tho i thought lowe and beck did as good as you can do.

Has anyone actually visited the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield? Friend and I are thinking of a road trip in the Spring to Mass and thinking of stopping there.

the volleyball hall of fame is in the next town over its called the volleyhall if you were wondering

you can see the basketball hof from the train too fwiw
Lol, these aren't exactly ringing endorsements.

I've never been there, but I can imagine it. what could be more exciting than seeing wall-sized photos of famous players sweating, displays of old jerseys hung on dressmakers dummies, wall-sized lists of lifetime statistics, and darkened rooms playing endless clips of games played decades ago?

cmon jalen lol
"Jamal Crawford is a multi-time Sixth Man of the Year. He deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. He does moves unlike anybody... He is 1 of 4 people to score 40 points for four different teams." @JalenRose says @JCrossover should be a HOFer.pic.twitter.com/2go18j3KRZ— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPointsApp) August 2, 2022

he deserves to be in cos he has a nice mixtape cooking people
lol, we need to introduce jalen to the hollafame

haha for sure.
he was a certified disaster in the playoffs

pretty sure Jalen is already a hollafame inductee

lol what is it with nba guys and jamal crawford. i mean i know what it is but still.

its like famous musicians who fawn over legendary session guys

xpost, i meant we need to tell jalen about this illustrious hoops institution of which he is already a member that would also be perfect for jamal
― circles, Wednesday, 3 August 2022 03:44 (one year ago) link
indeed, i would think jamal is on his way there
he last played in 19-20 though so has a couple years to go
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Wednesday, 3 August 2022 16:44 (one year ago) link
it is actually kind of surprising he never made an all-star game. wouldn't have expected it when he was a starter but in one of those 6MOY years, when the last roster spot or 2 on the team goes to a people's choice, fun story type guy. jamal as the preeminent 6th man in the league for several years and teams was nothing if not a people's choice fun story
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Wednesday, 3 August 2022 16:45 (one year ago) link
jalen rose never making an allstar team is the really crazy one he was the best player on a team that went to the finals
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 3 August 2022 16:48 (one year ago) link
clearly a deep ops to maintain his eligibility for the hollafame
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Thursday, 4 August 2022 01:40 (one year ago) link
i sort of forget that the 2000 pacers made it to the finals. jalen should have gotten one of allan houston's all-star spots. honestly looking at them now those 2000 & 2001 east all-star teams were bizarre, lots of inefficient scoring wings and veteran bigs who were totally not stars.

Dwyane Wade and Dirk Nowitzki are among the six people who will make up the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2023, ESPN reported Tuesday night.
Wade and Nowitzki will be joined by international legends Paul Gasol and Tony Parker, longtime Spurs coach Gregg Popovich and six-time WNBA All-Star Becky Hammon, per the report.
awesome class this year

hall of spurs

(with special consideration for spurs victims)
just on historical precedent LMA should be a HOFer - 7 time all star, 5 time all-nba is nothing to sneeze at. what he’s really missing, aside from the eye test of being a dominant player, is the postseason success. Only made it out of the first round with Portland once and then as a spur ran into the dubs dynasty (and kawhi’s ankle meeting zaza’s foot)
