Re: REDOING THE NBA HALL OF FAME (retired in 1990 or earlier)

Whoops, yeah that was an oversite. I'm going to replace Bellamy with Walton (I guess I made my decision to give up on Walt as a lost cause); I'd otherwise have replaced Haywood with Walton.

It's funny when you realize it's time to do that. It's a bummer, but I kind of like knowing that I'm diverging from the majority on a guy I feel particularly strongly about.

I am recording the votes that didn't get guys in - the honorable mentions - on the second sheet of the spreadsheet, for what it's worth.

McAdoo didn't retire by 90, actually, he kept playing in Italy till 1992. Shouldn't it count? It does in the actual HOF.

This is a NBA HoF and not a general basketball HoF so college and international careers aren't taken into consideration.

[penbeast0]

Yes, specified in OP that it's playing career only and BAA/NBL/ABA/NBA only.
