My Shooting Gawd made it


My nikka a hall of famer

 

[Jerz-2]

to all three.

Also, Sheryl Swoops MORE than deserves her induction, guess Lisa Leslie is next.

And @360Waves , I believe that you are correct in that the NBA by far puts its players into its HOF the fastest, or at least, faster than both the NFL and the MLB.

 

[TheGregReaper]

My favorite player of all time

 

[G-Zeus]

It's not the talent you brought to the game, it's the CONTRIBUTION you made to the sport of basketball. Yao Ming made an incredible impact on the game.

yeah i get it now.. its basketball hall of fame and not NBA hall of fame..

 

[PortCityProphet]

AI my idol
His speech gon be straight sob status

 

[The_Third_Man]

He made it

so happy for him

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Yao brought China into the NBA. NBA is so much bigger and made so much money because of Yao...

That has everything to do with capitalism and not him as a player on the court.... I aint mad, but if he getting in, then T MAC needs to get in...

Yao brought China into the NBA. NBA is so much bigger and made so much money because of Yao...

see.. you had to it to the business side to validate his HoF.. its suppose to be about the talent you brought to the game..

I agree that it should be about the talent side but the NBA is a business after all... This is the Hall of FAME, and he brought them fame. Meh

Congrats to AI and Shaq

But if Ming got in can I expect Penny and Grant Hill to get in as well?

My thoughts exactly.
