Yes he is. Stop being foolish.

 

[CP1708]

If he is, it's because of International ball, he is NOT NBA HOF. 

No %$#@@+%+++*#$ way. 

 

[university of nike]

No @!%+ Sherlock - it's the basketball hall of fame, not the NBA hall of fame. And he'll be first ballot.

 

[beware the underdog]

Manu Ginobili 1st ballot HOF

Nick Van Exel Isn't.

HE MAD.

 

[CP1708]

^
Then the Hall of Fame is pointless. 

An an NBA guy, he hasn't done jack @#$%

Less than 10,000 points, 15, 4 and 4 per game for a career, 3 titles, 1 6th man, no top 5 MVP finishes, 16.5, 4.5 and 4 in the playoffs, good PER in the low 20's, 2 all NBA 3rd teams, 4 solid defensive years based off those advanced numbers, and he'll be 35 in July. 

Please.  That resume is nothing. 

He gets in from flopping in other countries, yay for him.  But NBA wise, he isn't worth a damn.

I am shocked that CP doesn't understand how the basketball HOF works

 

[CP1708]

Don't be shocked, I know all the international guys get in for no reason, it's thee worst HOF there is. 

Rubio is already in the hall in like 3 years I bet.  It's a joke. 

(And I don't mean to knock Rubio, love what he's doin, just saying, you play overseas, you get in for no reason, it's garbage) 

 

[jpzx]

This is true... if Chris Bosh wins a ring or two with the Heat, has a gold medal in 2008 with Team USA, already over 12000 points.

International means Olympic success among other things, so as MESSED UP AS IT IS, if Ginobili gets in why shouldn't Bosh be on the bubble or in?

It's so messed up. There should be a NBA Hall Of Fame, and Basketball Hall of Fame.

 

[Deleted member 38182]

I see what you are saying...... but I mean it is what it is. Its definitely not a pure 100% qualified cream of the crop type of HOF. You will have guys like Yao or Petrovic who had incomplete careers make it, and then guys who have had great success in international competition and overseas pro success but short or late (or non existent) careers in the NBA like Manu or Oscar Schmidt (not sure if he is in HOF, but IMO he should be). Heck I think you can ever get in for just your HS or college accomplishments

which is pretty dumb. And don't even get me started with the women that make it

 

I do agree that there should be a separate NBA HOF that is specific to the accomplishments, records, and stats compiled purely in the NBA, none of the top 50 greatest baloney cuz that would just lead to snubs galore.

 

[CP1708]

You know, we did a MLB HOF thread on NT a while back, this summer we should do a complete NBA only HOF, and see who would make the NT cut. 

Cuz you know, Luis Scola could be a hall of famer someday, clearly on MJ's level. 

 

[srvballer]

The hall of fame is a joke. I wish it was just a NBA hof

 

[Deleted member 38182]

Hmmm that would be fun.... it would be tough to set parameters for a fresh NBA HOF.

Would empty stat guys make the cut like C-Webb, VC/TMac, Shawn Kemp, Dominique Wilkins, Reggie Miller, those kind of guys even

Are we gonna let titles be a major deciding factor for guys like Robert Horry or Steve Kerr???

How strict would we be???

Are we gonna go through every single year starting from the inception of the NBA??? How would any of us even be able to debate the 50s-70s really

 

[university of nike]

 @ Robert Horry being in the HoF.

 

[Deleted member 38182]

you don't remember those threads???? They were gold

 

[university of nike]

They were so bad. 

 

 

[CP1708]

Summer time rck2. 

Horry gets his own wing in the NBA only HOF.
