Is Shawn Marion a fringe Hall of Famer?

[JMurder]

According to basketball reference he's already got a 31% chance to make it in
NBA & ABA Leaders and Records for Hall of Fame Probability | Basketball-Reference.com

4 Time All Star
1 Ring
2 Time All NBA Third Team
Top 100 in career points scored
Top 50 in career rebounds grabbed
25th in career steals
56th in career blocks

Heard it discussed on the CBS Basketball podcast that he's HOF worthy but he wouldn't get in...I had never thought about dude in those terms before. What y'all think?

 

[duncanthetall]

[CantStop]

Steve Nash 56%

05' Suns
06' Suns
10' Suns

I agree, but Marion's portfolio for his career statistics is more complete than both Cassell and Richmond, not to mention he could realistically keep playing for 3-4 more years as a productive player. He's having another good season this year.

Not saying he will get in but...he's making a little bit of a case.

Being top 5 has never been a prerequisite for being in the hall of fame
