Germany just won Eurobasket with Dennis winning MVP, his 2nd time doing this in a major international tourney.



Is Dennis Schröder a Hall of Famer?​

OK, settle down. This isn't as crazy an idea as it sounds, at least for a few reasons. The primary one being that the Hall isn't NBA exclusive. It's a worldwide Basketball Hall of Fame, and with Schröder having now won MVP and gold medals at both the World Cup and EuroBasket, it's getting difficult to argue against him.

The 32-year-old also does have NBA success to help his case, as he's approaching 12,000 career points and 900 games. Those two parameters would never get him in the door alone, but combined with his international success, he's working on making a serious argument for himself
The very idea that Schröder could be in line for a Hall of Fame spot further underlines how the international game has its own set of legs to stand on, and that's frankly fair, all things considered. It's a solid reminder the NBA isn't the be-all, end-all of global basketball, and that success comes in many different shapes and sizes.

Will Schröder make the Hall? It's tough to say. The 32-year-old guard is presumably going to play another three to four years, and if Germany doesn't win another championship during his tenure, perhaps the memory of him will simply wither away within the context of the Hall of Fame.

Let's hope not, because what he's managed to achieve these past two years has been extremely noteworthy.


What do yall think? MVP and Gold medal at two major tournaments, is that + a long NBA career enough?

I will say this. The way the NBA game is played, they do relegate alot of people to "specialists" when they have so much to offer outside of a restricted system. That's why you see so many international players show out for their home country

But with that being said..... hell nah lol

DENNIS HAS AVERAGED 19 PTS
IN THE NBA.

HES NEVER BEEN RELEGATED
TO A SPECIALIST.

It's not about PPG

He has a set role on every team he's been on, never the focal point of the offense. He's treated like a hired gun, which is evident in him being traded to a different team every season

He is a specialist in the NBA and not given more freedom, at the same time giving him more freedom doesn't make the team better and he's not a Hall of Famer. You didn't even read my original post, just decided to reply for the fukk of it.

You don't have to reply to every post in this thread breh, it's kind of embarrassing. I dare you to talk like this in the Boxing threads. But you probably won't, because you'll get laughed out the building
