Without looking at stats it's hard to say but I would say yes to Jackson, Rodman, Dirk, and maybe KJ.

Hell no on Stephon Marbury.

I do love this thread as it lets me gauge other people's NBA knowledge... pretty much anyone who has said yes to Horry should never try to talk NBA again.

Ill say this about Robert Horry and his 7 NBA titles. In his 16 yr career Horry averaged 7.0 PPG. In the playoffs it was 7.9. No way he gets in!!

Yes's are bolded. Hill because it's the basketball HOF as stated earlier. Nowitzki is in with a couple more good years, which I think he'll certainly get.

Rodman is a no brainer to me. He's arguably the best rebounder ever, and was a key player on two of the defining dynasties in NBA history.

He might be top 20 but he not in the conversation for best ever.

Too bad your opinion doesn't mean shit and most of that list will probably get in. It's not like the baseball HOF, shitting on the court will get you into the basketball HOF.

Here is my take anyways:

Robert Horry - Yes, lots of championships and some big highlights, he'll get in for being a championship caliber journey man.
Mark Jackson - Yes
Grant Hill - Yes, this might be the most obvious choice here.
Stephon Marbury - No.
Vince Carter - Without a doubt.
Dennis Rodman - Yes.
Shawn Kemp - Possibly, but he actually may not get in.
Kevin Johnson - Yes.
Rasheed Wallace - No.
Dirk Nowitzk - Obviously yes.

Must be why 139 Players TOTAL have been inducted and 86 TOTAL NBA Players have been inducted since they started in 1959.

Your like the town drunk on here only dumber.
