    When Bernard King and Ralph got in, I think it opened the door for carter,tracy,and hill. Hill was a great college player and a great basketball player until his injury. His career is very similar to ralph. Mcgrady's career is very parallel to king in terms of scring and overral success. Iverson is really a no brainer. Iverson was a great basketball player, period.

    Ranking them it'd be...

    A.I.
    T-Mac
    Grant Hill
    Vince Carter
    Rasheed

    A.I. and T-Mac should definitely be in, but not so sure about Grant Hill, VC and Rasheed.

    They need a D-League Hall of Fame.

    I think Grant Hill is the most likely out of them

    the basketball HOF is comprehensive of the sport as a whole

    besides the NBA, Grant Hill gets in on his success in college

    and AI would be a lock IMO

    None of these guys should be in HOF.

    Allen Iversion for sure. In his prime he can score at anytime and quick as hell.

    Plus he don't even practice to play at that level.

    Yes. Neither AI nor Kobe ever put up seasons as good as Tmac in Orlando at the time or ever.

    I didn't like AI's play towards the 2nd half of his career...but damn, the guy was something to be reckoned with during that 1st half. Leading the sixers to the finals, no matter how crappy the east was, still makes him deserving. AI should deff. be there.

    HoF in the NBA is a joke. But, AI and Tracy both have a resume to do it, and Grant Hill would have been a top 15 player if not for the injury, so..... Sheed is laughable, and those panelists are stupid.

    What do you guys think about Tim Hardaway being snubbed? Obviously, I have a bias so my opinion doesn't mean much in this case...

    also Kevin Johnson?

    Allen Iverson is absolutely a hall of famer. I don't really think Vince Carter, Grant Hill, Rasheed Wallace, or Tracy McGrady are hall of famers. But that said, it's not the baseball hall of fame. Guys like Mitch Richmond can make the basketball hall of fame so just about any multi-year all star should be eligible.

    If Chris Mullin and Mitch Richmond are in the HOF, I think most of those guys should make it. The problem is I don't know if Mullin and Richmond really deserved it though.

    "Does Vince Carter,Grant Hill,Rasheed Wallace,Tracy Mcgrady and Allen Iverson deserve to be HOF"--> the grammatical errors still hurt my eyes.

    Mullin avg 25 for 5 season and was ridiculously efficient doing it. Where he was shooting easily above .500 and 6 rebounds as a 2. Mullin was sick good and might even be underrated. He was on the dream team for a reason. I think you confused him for Dan Majerle.

    Mitch Richmond I can see, he jacked it up a lot.
