Got in on his second try. Although I'm sure all of us believe he should have been a first ballot. Glad he got in though. I for one, will be glued to nbatv the day of the ceremony. Going to put in day off request well in advance, lol.

That's really fast for a guy who, in many people's opinions, issn't a superstar or even that good of a player.

Good thing those who vote players in have a differing opinion than those who think those things about him.

Reggie Miller, IMO, is like the NBA's version of Tony Gwynn.

That's ironic because Gwynn chose to live in Indy. I like the comparison.
Some idiot on ESPN radio commented that he did not believe Reggie deserved to be inducted, saying better players/coaches have been passed over, and that Reggie's admission weakens the requirements needed to gain consideration. I'm okay with all that nonsense because everyone is entitled to their own beliefs, but what pissed me off is he kept mentioning Calipari as one who got snubbed.
ALERT: Calipari is a walking natural disaster, leaving universities across America in shambles because he is so unethical. Reggie on the other hand was, and always will be a class act.
Congrats to the all-time greatest Pacer, Reggie Miller. That is until Paul Geoge surpasses him

Well deserved for Reggie! Nice to see it will be Miller Time in the Hall of Fame...
(I'm still bitter Rodman got in last year before him)

Reggie can still beat Lebron in any given 4th quarter.
He deserves to be in that list. Also, with the ABA Beast Mel Daniels.

This is the more important thing. Reggie will go in the Hall with Mel Daniels. The Pacers have never had anyone inducted, and now they get 2 in the same year. We'll own that Hall. Very deserving for both of them.

McGinnis is likely next.

Eh, I'm not sure George is going to make it in. If he hasn't made it by now, he likely won't ever. George's production kind of loses it's luster over time, as opposed to someone like Mel Daniels who looked better over time.

The ABA section is still new, and since a bunch of those guys are in already, McGinnis is likely the next Pacer in. I did forget about Mark Jackson, though.

It'll be interesting to see which team Mark Jackson gets inducted with. Either Knicks or Pacers. Knicks are the hometown team that drafted him, but they also casted him aside early in his career and he wasn't happy with them for a long time. He did return for a year or two late in his career, though.
