If you say no you’re exposing yourself
Exposing yourself? Of what?

The only reason he will eventually get in is because it’s the basketball hall of fame and not just the nba hall of fame. So they include college and the Olympics which all together will let him in but just barely.

Kyrie ain't do nothing in college.

He missed like half the season.

Exactly but he won some gold medals and a case can be made that along with his ring and all star appearances he should get in.

Of course, it’s the Basketball HOF.

You get considered for induction if you average 20 PPG and are All District in high school.

Yes- rookie of the year,all star teams, all star MVP, 2 gold medals- olympics and fiba world cup, NBA title, great final performances, 3 point champion, all NBA appearances. Was in the 50-40-90 club also. He's a lock based on that when other dudes ain't did as much.

To me, as great as he is individually, he really not able to carry a team as a focal point but better as a 2nd option. When he had that chance in Boston and first year in Brooklyn it wore on him. Also in Cleveland he couldn't get the team up there even though it wasn't a great roster. but he can feed off another player easily. Loved him and lebron together. I think him and KD could have that same energy potentially.


I voted no but after seeing the list, I forgot he won the 3 point contest
he used to cook when Lebron was in Miami, people shyt on that but he was alone on that team and carried pretty well
alot of his shyt is well deserved and alot is padding but its accolades none the less. I would say 100% he deserves it based on resume, but I would also say his resume is padded compared to other people.
I cant really call dude a leader when he came in wanting to be one, but as soon as he got away from Lebron he wasnt a leader anymore. That completely makes me dislike him as a point guard, even though he's great.
Meanwhile you got dudes like Billups and Rose, working mad hard and living for the game... coaching and coming back from multiple career ending injuries just to thrive.

I just looked up Rasheed Wallace accolades and they dont tell the full story of his career. Dude was never on an All NBA team... but carried every team he was on basically. Almost won with Portland, finally got 1 with Detroit, then almost won it for Boston as just an extra piece. Id rather ride with someone like that over someone who's completely destroying entire teams chemistry, from Cleveland to Boston to Brooklyn. Dude makes Iverson look like Grant Hill as far as chemistry goes. They bring Nash in who's a master of chemistry which is genius... then instead of building it dude doesnt even show up :russ: dude took a mental health week off last year and then posted videos harlem shaking in the club. Dude sat out for the playoffs in Boston :mjlol: then took a whole year off this year. Klay Thompson blew his knee out and then tore his achilles and Kyrie has nearly missed the same amount of time. Klay missed 2 years with career threatening injuries and worked his way back. Kyrie sat in Boston, fukked around last year on and off and then sat this entire year :bryan: thats not even mentioning him not even wanting to play bubble basketball at all . Dude stopped caring in 2018:huhldup:




last year someone posted:

"He has missed 111 of the 492 games he was on the Cleveland Cavaliers

37 of the 164 games he was on the Boston Celtics.

And 52 of the 72 games that he had been on the Brooklyn Nets.

Only played 11 games in college and missed 26"
