    Screw this guy, not deserving at all. I wonder what year Rudy To will get in, maybe after we win our next championship.

    The HOF is a joke if Rudy isn't in it

    Congrats to Tmac. He was a great player in his brief prime, too bad he and Yao's primes were cut short by injuries.

    I'm one of the biggest Tmac fans ever, and even I can't believe Tmac's a first ballot hall of fame LOL.

    I thought he was 2nd ballot at best. Oh well, suck it Tinman!

    Tmac quit on one game, Jordan quit on the entire sport but nobody seems to have a problem with that.

    You act like people don't quit all the time. KD quit on OKC, Lebron quit on Cleveland, Kobe quit in the playoffs against the Lakers I'm pretty a lot of posters here quit IRL all the time but because it's a player and not ourselves we can be righteous AF and denounce all these quitter, amirite?

    This is a huge surprise to me, no way Tmac should be in over Chris Webber first or Ben Wallace who won multiple DPOY and is a champion.

    Congratulations to him...but there is zero reason his jersey should be retired. Ariza as #1 was been more important to this franchise, and I still think of #3 as the Franchise's number.

    Hof should be honor enough.

    Rudy has accomplished SO MUCH MORE in basketball than Tmac.

    Rudy T was a great college player, a great pro player, a great coach, and a great person.

    Sad and ridiculous.

    You can't be serious with the Jordan analogy. That is obscene to the point you should edit it.

    And yes "the Toronto game " statement is overblown. It kind of just caught on here as a phrase I guess.

    If Mcgrady can make it in, I have no doubt harden can make it in.

    Ariza? Really? T-Mac has had some great moments with the Rockets. What truly great moments has Ariza had here?

    I felt Weber had a better career than TMac
    I think the issue is personality . . . . .. political
