 Who do you think are guys in the NBA right now that will be Hall of Famers? Also include guys who have recently retired. If I didn’t pick some great players please remind me I probably forgot. I didn’t include Kevin Durant because I wanted to see how his career plays out a bit more I do think that at this rate he is definitely gonna be a Hall of Famer and possibly the greatest scorer of all time.

Obvious Selections: LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal, Allen Iverson, Tim Duncan, Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony, Jason Kidd, Steve Nash, Dwight Howard

Borderline Hall of Famers: Chris Bosh, Pau Gasol, Shawn Marion, Tony Parker, Chauncey Billups, Amar’e Stoudemire, Deron Williams, Tracy McGrady, Grant Hill, Joe Johnson (in my opinion), Manu Ginobili

 Whys Melo an obvious hall of famer? if his career were to end right this minute he would be under 20000 pts no rings no mvps one scoring title on 45% shooting and not the greastest defender.I guess in the sense that its the basketball hall of fame youd count the title at syracuse but i still dont think that gets him in. Id put Manu, Carter, and Mcgrady in over him no question.

You say that doesn’t have any MVPs or a Ring and that’s your arguement against him. You need to actually come up with better arguements because you made yourself sound like an idiot. You can use those same arguements against McGrady and Vince Carter who you would supposedly put in over Carmelo. Last time I checked neither one of them won any rings or MVP awards. If anything I think thusfar he has had a better career than both to be honest and the general consensus about him is that he’s a top 10 player in the NBA. (here come the Melo haters lol)

He has over 19,000 points already. If he averages 70 games a season and scores a conservative 20 ppg over the next 4 seasons, he’ll reach 25, 000 points. If he plays 82 and averages 25 ppg, he’ll have around 28, 000. He’ll be 34 years old at that time. He’s going to the HOF. Lock it up.

Joe Johnson… seriously? A player that hasn’t really done anything in the NBA in terms of winning or making an impact on the game like Duncan, O’Neal, LeBron, Nowitzki, Bryant, Garnett, Pierce has… He shouldn’t being even mentioned with the greats like that. Not to mention his horrendous contract and how he playing below what his contract expects him off.

[Memphisboy14Participant]

I think that Joe Johnson has always been a good player his whole career. I know that his contract is horrible but what’s he supposed to do say no to the money that was offered him. Don’t get mad at him blame the Atlanta Hawks for even offering it to him. Despite that unlike guys like Rashard Lewis, Amar’e Stoudemire, Gilbert Arenas, Javale McGee at least he has still been an effective player in his career. They offered him that contract when he was starting to get older. He definitely didn’t deserve that All-Star spot this year though I will agree with that. Also I think that he is one of the players that made the Atlanta Hawks franchise relavant again.

I also find it funny that now all of a sudden Paul Pierce is an all time great. I don’t mean any disrespect to him he’s never been a player I’ve been fond of but I do respect his status in the NBA as a future Hall of Famer. But on the same token in the 9 seasons he played for Boston before K.G. and Ray Allen got there he led the Celtics to 6 losing seasons 2 first round 2 exits a 2nd round exit and the Conference Finals. It’s not like his team success was that good before.

Pierce played at an All-star level for more than a decade, he was good in just about every facet of the game and he was an NBA Finals MVP. No he wasn’t singlehandedly capable of carrying a mediocre team deep into the playoffs but so few players are. Honestly I would say only maybe 25-30 guys in NBA history have been capable of doing that

 I never said that Joe Johnson was a Hall of Famer. I said that he is borderline it could go either way for him in my opinion. Nobody thinks he ever been as good as the guys you mentioned. I don’t think he will ever make it though, those 7 All Star Games and 2 All NBA selections will help his case but I think he will fall into the same category as Mitch Richmond who is still struggling to get in. If he does make it, it will be similar to how Chris Mullin struggled to get in.

I would say both Chris Bosh and Tony Parker could be considered highly probable HOFers. For what it’s worth there is a list of HOF probabilities for active players on the basketball reference.   

They list Bosh with a 94.11% chance and Parker at 83.18%

I think that Bosh made the biggest sacrifice out of everyone in the Big 3. And, Tony Parker has been one of the most underrated players in the NBA for a long time.

 In my opinion Pao Hasol is not vorderline. Be it 5 years after he retires or 25 years after he retires he will make it to the HOF.

Multiple NBA rings, multiple all NBA team recipient, ROY, World Title and MVP with Spain an a career full of solid stats. He may not be the biggest star in the league but that is a HOF resume.

 

[Memphisboy14Participant]

Interesting points you made. I think that should be enough to get Pau Gasol in there. He’s also one of the greatest European players in the NBA ever.

 We have had this debate numerous times but if you want someone not mentioned I’ll throw in Antwan Jamison as worthy as some of the probables mentioned above. He’s in the 20,000 point club as the 39th member, 26 of those guys are already in the HOF. Of those who have retired and are waiting to qualify Shaq and AI are locks. Of those still playing Kobe, Dirk, KG, Tim Duncan and LeBron are locks I think we all agree. PP and Ray Allen are very likely with Vince Carter maybe just a bit behind them.

So we could well have 36 guys in the 20,000 point club out of 39 as HOF’s so someone like Jamison who would never be voted in immediately he became eligible could well get in in due course.

It will be interesting to see if we have one year when several likely contenders all become eligible which of them will get in first. 

 

 

 

  

[Memphisboy14Participant]

I think alot of people had doubts about Paul Pierce getting in. It wasn’t until his final years in Boston that he made a great case for himself. I think that Ray Allen would’ve made it regardless since he beat the 3pt record. I think that those 2 championships also left no doubts in anyone’s minds that he should get in. 

Vince Carter I think has been very underappreciated in his career. Unlike alot of other superstars from that era who burned out he’s one of the few that are still left and playing at a pretty good level today. He changed his style of play and has become a much better teammate since his time in Toronto which people still burn him for today. He’s still in the NBA playing well even though I think he will probably retire in the next year or 2. I do think that if he gets in you HAVE to put Tracy McGrady in the Hall of Fame too. It may take him a few tries but I do think that he gets in off the strength of his dunks. 

As far as Antawn Jamison goes I think that he has had a very good career thus far in the NBA. I don’t think he makes it though to be honest. I think that if he had a bit more individual and team success he would have a case but I don’t think that he gets in though. Much like Joe Johnson and Shawn Marion.
