    There is no doubt AI is in. When? Who knows. But the kid was as good as there ever will be. I mean, not only is he in the BK HoF. He is a founding member of the Sports Quotes Hall with Mora, Green, etc.

    Absolutely yes, no doubt.

    Of course he's in. He's one of the top 50 players ever. Has there ever been a good Hall of Fame thread about one specific player?

    shortest person to ever win a scoring title
    (which surprised me, I would have thought that would have been someone from the early days of the league)

    Not even a debate. He'll go in the first time he's eligible.

    Allen Iverson is a hall of famer, but the bolded part is untrue. Allen Iverson is currently 6th on that list (though as Lebron ages he'll probably slide back behind Iverson).

    That statistic is extremely skewed toward championships and older players (to the point where George Mikan teammates Vern Mikkelsen and Slater Martin are ahead of Julius Erving and Clyde Drexler while Patrick Ewing is not in the top 50). It's best when used to compare players of the same era.

    Next up for the HOF debate, a guy who can actually hit a jumper.
