Being in the HOF isn't determined by votes, its determined by points IIRC. Since AI got an MVP award as well as numerous all star appearances he's a lock for a first ballot hall of fame. For all the fame and notoriety he generated I think he deserves no less than a first ballot, the guy certainly is one of the most polarizing players to ever hoop. I personally think he's one of the most overrated players ever and the only reason he got so many PPG was because he took 90% of the shots of the team, but if even team owners managed to get into the hall of fame there's no reason why he can't be a first ballot.
Oh how the mighty have fallen. That vid actually makes me quite sad, AI was damn fun to watch back in the days. Same with stevie franchise. I miss those two players. Selfish, yes. Stupid, yes. But both of them literally left everything on the court. They really played with heart. I am really sick and tired of a lot of the young players nowadays looking for a easy way out.
ask dominique wilkins lol. but yes, he should be a first ballot HOF. one of the greatest players of his generation.
