I keep hearing and hearing how this guy is a Hall of Famer when he clearly isn't.

Listen, I understand that he was a defensive beast in his prime and has nice padded numbers in a stretch in where his biggest threat in the middle was the likes of Roy Hibbert. He completely fails the eye test and as far as I am concerned that stretch on the Magic just shows how great Stan Van Gundy is with big guys.

He failed post Van Gundy on the Magic and bytched his way out to the Lakers.

He failed in that year on the Lakers and Kobe done shytted on him on TV.

On the Rockets he is facing a bad situation if they go down 0-2 and his passive ass only gets a few shots and fouls out as well. If this was a HOF center like Ewing, Zo, Hakeem, Shaq, DRob, YAO, etc they DEMAND the ball or else there WILL be consequences after the game is over. I am almost positive that Rik Smits will give this dude that work if they played each other in their primes. The only C that I can see not being able to handle him is a past his prime Rony Seikaly. The only legit C he really faced off against was YAO and YAO shytTED all over him.

No Post Moves and can't stretch the floor because he has no jumpshot.

Here is what Kareem had to say when he was preparing Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum for a PRIME Dwight Howard:


Barkley and the rest of the inside the NBA crew:


NOT a HOF, I will no longer hear a case for this cat as a HOF and as far as I am concerned him being included into the hall is a disgrace to the entire hall of fame. If you disagree you didn't watch 90's or earlier basketball.

Yea, so that's when he should rely on the post skills that he should have developed by now . Everyone loses athletismn, especially big men. This guy has worked with damn near every hall of fame center , he's trash, no excuses
He didnt just lose athleticism

Dude cant bend his body or move laterally really, I mean he moved better on Lakers then he does now



He cant move like this anymore and that was just 2 and half years ago

He's pretty clearly a hall of fame player. I don't get this push against him getting in someday - you can't name 15 centers to have played this game with a better prime than his.

This is a dude who was better than the MVP of the league in 2011, has three defensive player of the year awards and is one of the greatest rebounders in league history. He's not near his peak anymore but you shouldn't lose sight of just how great he used to be.
