Hall of Fame doesn't specify Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame.

Can I use it for the Australian hall of fame?

More for the lulz, its obviously not going to be a all star player

detlef schrempf - dunks/3s

always great to have a versatile guy off the bench. in the 80s and 90s detlef was one of the premier 6th men. he could play both forward positions, score, rebound, pass and shoot the 3. perfect.

3 time all-star
2 time 6th man of the year
1 time all nba 3rd team

best season: 19.1ppg, 9.5rpg, 6.0apg

He was shooting over 50% three's one year, was a great 3rd fiddle player next to Payton and Kemp.

There sure are a lot of players who fit the First/Last category in history, kind of cool I think.

hard to really say with manning. he torn his acl as a rookie. we never really got to see him in the NBA prior to his injuries. it took him a few years to really get healthy and by then he had reinvented his game as more of a slower more cerebral player.

his best years were about 19ppg, 6rpg, 3apg, 1spg and 1bpg. i'd have to think that fully healthy he would have added a few points, definitely more rebounds, blocks and steals.

he was never probably going to be a guy to carry a team offensively. he was more likely to be a worthy type, a really solid #2 who was like a hybrid forward, could play some 3 and 4. maybe a bigger, aguirre (but better bball iq, more coachable etc). maybe a better terry cummings or a better cliff robinson. the guy was so smart as a player. he just always seemed to know what to do to win.

Wasn't he rated one of the best College players ever?
He was a can't miss pick before that knee blew out

Nah I still got the Champion category I could use on him.

I just remembered that the pick I was considering was actually on a champion team, so I probably won't have to use the Aussie Hall of fame.

I wanted a third string PG that was different to Walt and MRR. A smaller guy who could really stroke the long ball. This guy can do that.

Damon Stoudamire = Relatives (Salim's cousin)

He was the rookie of the year in 1998, which was also his best season:

19 points per game
4.0 rebounds per game
9.3 assists per game
1.4 steals per game

and he shot a blistering 39.5% from three on 4.2 attempts per game.

I don't want to rain on your parade, however...

10. Relatives - has a father, son or brother who also played in the NBA.
