What about Neal Walk, played 5 seasons with us. Averaged close to a double double, and worked many years for the Suns.

That is an absolute joke. I guarantee jason kidd never makes it into the ring of honor, he doesnt even belong in the discussion.

As for marion, you cant argue with these All time numbers.

Marion will get it. Top 3 in rebound, steal, block and minutes in Suns history, along with at the top 5 in other stats, will guaranteed a spot for him in the RoH

i guess i had conveniently forgotten marion was up there with suns records since i was just looking at overall nba stats. btw, i wasn't saying kidd should get it, just that he had more accomplishment. but i realize that's not the point of the suns RoH.

i think i was just focusing on the way marion left and the fact that we were so close to going all the way and we didn't (probably a good indication that marion deserves it).

Not Kidd. The way he left us and the fact that his prime years weren't with us. The way Shawn left was pretty much out of his control. He didn't demand to be traded, he was constantly bitching about being involved in trade talks. That's different. And he was here giving his all during his prime. There shouldn't be any doubt that he will get it.

When I was a kid he came to speak at my school and kicked me out (not literally of course) of the auditorium for laughing.

Of course Marion is getting in, I still maintain Kidd should be, but I don't expect to see it either.

Also John Macleod coached the suns from 73-87 made the NBA finals and an above .500 winning precentage. Never understood why he's not in there. Maybe someone could enlighten me?
Also obviously Al McCoy should go in and really they should just do it now instead of waiting for him to retire/pass away like they did Cotton Fitzsimmons


Well I got that one right. Even though he's not a player.
