Magic and Howard snubbed 

Post#1 » by UKMagic » Thu Mar 6, 2008 6:08 pm

Rick Kamla's latest column predicts future entrants to the Hall of Fame among active players. Orlando is one of the few teams not represented on his huge list...and that means Dwight gets snubbed but lesser talents make it in....

Pretty huge mistake if it is a mistake....

He also excluded Yao Ming, who is a sure entry simply because of his significance to China.

Well, to be fair, D12 has only been playing for a few seasons, and the Magic have less than 20 seasons behind them

Rofl, didn't click the link before posting. Including every team but Orlando was clearly an oversight on his part.

And look at his reasoning for Al Jefferson. A horrible mistake on his part.

Its just a fantasy baskeball article. And if Orlando is not on there it was just a mistake on his part. Still you would of thought that they would read and review those articles before posting them.

Al's post moves are world class, and because he relies on touch and savvy--rather than sheer athleticism--he should be able to maintain the 20 and 10 for at least the next decade.


hmmm sounds like a shot at dwight doesn't it? what a punk, dwight already has 2 post moves and still shoots 60% a game. go suck on that stat "nba anaylyst"

Wow..this guy is a nut...I think he left people off of his list, just to tick people off.... I am one of them

If Ben Wallace is on the list because of Defense and rebounds, then Dwight needs to be right next to him


Kevin Durant is in because of his stroke??? How do you say Chuckzilla in spanish??? Yeah, next he'll say Adam Morrison should be in as well....

At least he admits that he's a tree-hugging hippy who likely was stoned when he wrote that.

Just pointing out the fact that this garbage can't be truly taken seriously when he prefaces his article with sophmorish comments such as those. In this day and age, just about anyone can write articles....

1. rick kamla's name comes up when one clicks on the tab between "bookmarks" and "help" in firefox.
2. his view of basketball starts and ends with fantasy perspective.
3. he does not understand basketball, he is just a regular numbers guy.
only 10 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists shy of yet another triple double - anonymous
