This is nice. But, we all considered him there already. It's the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield that's LONG OVERDUE!
Chuck Daley 2 Rings, Lenny Wilkins (No Championships) Wins in Regular Season Record, are in the Hall of Fame. Rudy Tomjanovich, system is being used in today's NBA, Robert Horry as a Stretch Forward, Shooting 3s. Why is NBA black balling Rudy Tomjanovich. Even the Houston Cougars Coach Guy Lewis for many years, until he got in 2007. Guy Lewis waited since the 1980s to get in the Hall of Fame, until he is in a Wheelchair to get in 2007. The Voters are extremely biased against Houston. Rudy Tomjanovich has been waiting to get in since 2004 I believe. I guess the Lakers and Kobe hate him, by overpaying him and Rudy leaving Coaching, while being stuck with a huge contract, Rudy moved to Scouting.
Love this. Now first get Rudy T into the hall of fame and second get him on the Rockets payroll and off the Lakers!!!
The lakers didn’t hate him or did he hate the lakers He still got a large portion of his contract paid and he remained a consultant to the lakers til May 2017 His son even got a job with the lakers just proves that Jerry bus was a standup owner who never sold his team or screwed over his coaches or players jerry bus wasn’t hurting for money He’s not in the business of screwing his employees like Les did to Barkley @Jontro @Os Trigonum you seriously need to research stuff first dude
So, this is just the 3rd Class of inductees. Inaugural Class — the three 34s Hakeem Earl Nolan 2019 Class — weird class v 2020 Jackie Burke, Jr AJ Foyt George Foreman Dan Pastorini (lulz) 2020 Class Rudy T Carl Lewis Mary Lou Retton
I think this is cool and all, but............ Honestly its meaningless. He deserves to be in the Basketball HOF, and this basically feels like a consoltation prize. Its like winning a Golden Globe and not even being nominated for an Oscar
I hope the evidence of why Rudy is worthy is on full display. Maybe it would help Naismith HoF voters to look a little closer.
Pastorini got in before Rudy T, Lewis, and Retton -- that IS funny -- 3 champions... the "fancy passing dago" (their words not mine lol). Even before m'fing BUM??? Lolololol... I was going to say Pastorini was a good old boy so I get it, but not more than BUM. Deserves a place though. Maybe there's more to it...
