    Hopefully, this will push those idiots up top to add him to NBA Hall of Fame. Congrats Rudy T!

    This is nice. But, we all considered him there already.

    It's the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield that's LONG OVERDUE!

    It’s a start but the real HOF will not be PURE until he is enshrined

    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.

    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

    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...
