Rose is absolutely correct that he made it, and should be pleased with what he accomplished professionally and certainly financially.

As to the fans saying he deserves the HOF, I mean, there’s absolutely no way he even gets close to making it.

Then I remember that if you were a good but not great college coach from the 60s you're probably in the hall of fame because why wouldn't the hall of fame have like 50% college coaches who are basically nobodies and then I think that yeah, both should get in.

iguodala has been a significantly better player than dennis johnson was, for example. another guy who was not close to the best player on a few title teams. iggy is better as a defender, arguably a more effective scorer and at least as good a passer as a wing!

No, he really hasn't.

DJ was a 5x allstar, 9x all defense teams, and 2 all nba teams and also has a finals mvp vs Iggy finals mvp, 1 allstar, and 2 all defense teams.

and yet you refuted not a single one of my reasons why iggy has been the better player (i shouldn't have said "significantly")

kobe was on a whole lot of all defensive teams too. iggy has been a SIGNIFICANTLY better defender than kobe

You offered subjective opinions. I offered actual accomplishments on why guys get into the hall of fame.

5 all stars and a FMVP is borderline like you said.
Objectively it seems like enough.
Subjective he was never the top tier talent you would consider for the hall. Usually accomplishments trump the narrative so if I had to bet I would think he would get in.

Derrick May have missed the boat because his narrative has a a lot of of negative energy. If at some point he cleans up his image , but it’s not completely salvaged.

Idk, I could see people that vote for the HOF (Hall of famers, basketball executives, nba writers etc.) vote for him.

If I had to put money on it, I'd say he probably doesnt get in, but I also wouldn't be shocked that he did. Whether you agree with it or not, people's opinion of him around the league is still very high. He is well respected among his peers and in the media.

You offered subjective opinions. I offered actual accomplishments on why guys get into the hall of fame.

actual accomplishments based on subjective opinions of media members :dontknow:...which are obviously impacted by things like...how good a guy's team is (iggy's were mediocre in philly)...and whether a guy is a starter (iggy sacrificed that for the team initially). dennis johnson barely got into the hall of fame despite those media accolades. rodman got in a lot faster despite only being a 2 time all-star

and the argument was not about who WILL get into the HOF. it was about who SHOULD. which is more subjective. strictly by the numbers iggy is very unlikely to get in

if you want to ACTUALLY be objective, look at the stats. and iggy wins on that count. more efficient scorer, better a:to ratio, better rebounder. most importantly, his teams' performance has tended to go way up when he is on the floor

iggy wins the eye test as well (subjective)

Definately borderline, If he never got injured it would have been a sure thing.

Whatever the outcome, he can consider himself a success story, and a great tallent. Injuries and health could hit anyone at anytime.

I'm now indifferent to either opinion. If he gets in, it will be on tallent and not on carear stats. But if this generation see's him in that status I will stay out of the discussion, My childhood heros are already in.

If Rose gets a 6th man of the year award and a ship with a contender I think he gets in. That would make Rose and Walton the only mvp to win the 6th man of the year award. Too bad he didn’t get that ship at Memphis

That doesn’t get you in the Hall though. He was an MVP. And that’s big. But he was only a 3x Allstar, 1x All NBA, never played a single Finals game, appears nowhere on any career statistic lists, and played zero Olympic Games. Chris Webber isn’t even in, they include college, and he was the star of the most famous college team of all time.

Is it “possible” he gets in? Sure, I guess. But it would have no comp. He would be the only guy ever to get in on “gosh, we really think you might have actually qualified had you not been hurt, so we’ll give it to you based on an assumption.”

HOF is a career-aggregate distinction. He doesn’t have the resume.

I think it's probably 50/50 for him. You say he has no comp? Every MVP has got in, there are the comps.

He also dominated HS with 2 state titles, and college while he was there, and won 2 gold medals in the FIBA world cup.

FWIW bball reference lists his HOF likelihood at 10.5%.

MVP alone is why he’d get in. We’ll find out eventually if that is enough or not

Didn't know he had a book for sale.

Feel a little weird asking this as a grown man, but any Chicagoland signings taking place?

He would've had a better chance if he never played again after tearing his ACL.

I'm happy for him though. It seems like he's really at peace with himself and his career. I definitely want to check his book out.

I have no clue why Chris Webber hasn't gotten in. Idk why Grant Hill did, and he didn't.

I'm saying that I could see Rose get in because of the things I've listed along with the fact that he was the youngest MVP in NBA history considering all MVPs are in the hall. Btw, he does have 2 gold medals from playing the national team in 2010 and 2014 for the fiba world cup, so maybe that counts for something.

Because of his talent the team leaned on him too hard to provide the offense.

If he'd had an even decent SG during his early years then it would have been a different situation.

I still hate that Thabo was traded to the Thunder in Rose's 1st year. He was the player that Brewer was supposed to be, but Brewer had the big contract and the reputation. Thibs didn't want to play Brewer though because he didn't really fit with Rose.

IMO Westbrook benefited from having Thabo starting next to him early in his career. That could have been Rose instead.

bogans was a better shooter than thabo. hinrich was better than both of them. and would have started next to derrick had we not dumped him (rightly) to take a shot at lebron/wade/bosh

brewer didn't have a big contract either. he got 2 years/9.5 mil and the team declined his 3rd year option. meanwhile thabo was playing under a 5 year/17 mil deal with the thunder. brewer wishes now that he'd have had thabo's deal

If my memory is correct Bogans was brought in after the season started because Thibs didn't want to play Brewer. But that was 2 years after Thabo was traded, and at that time Brewer was still with Utah.

Same for Hinrich, he left one year after Thabo was traded.

Thabo was still on his rookie contract when he was traded (don't know which year), but the Thunder contract came 2 years later.

After the trade, even though it was late in the season (at the trading deadline), he immediately started for the Thunder and they went on a winning streak. And he stayed in the starting lineup for years.

------------------------------------
Rumor was that LeBron wanted to play for the Bulls because of Rose. But after all of the craziness happened between Pax and Vinny, LeBron changed his mind.

He even made a statement in the press that he thought that Vinny had done a good job when the Bulls faced them in the playoffs the year before, and he didn't understand the firing.

So, Pax can blame himself for what happened with LeBron.

I was going to make a joke about the ghost writer of his book, but I see that it's Sam Smith and that he's credited on the cover. I'm not a fan of Smith's writing, but it makes sense that he worked with him.

Grant Hill was probably a top 3ish player in the world for a few years. Chris Webber was never even a top 3 PF.

Your memory is way off, Bogans was signed in the off season and i think was originally slated as a end of bench guy. I believe Brewer was dealing with a hamstring injury and thats why Keith got the starting spot. Thibs liked what he saw and stuck with it.

Also on Thabo, you're forgetting we traded him for the pick that landed us Taj (Who was instrumental in that teams success).

Looking back we were allot further away then we thought at the time. Miami could clamp down on Rose and no one could make them pay - certainty not Sefolosha.

Bogans started because he was a better O/D balance than Brewer or Korver. Drastically better defender than Korver, and while not really a better offensive player than Brewer, had drastically better shooting range. Bogans was really the #2 SG cause Brewer still got more minutes.

Bogans is probably the most inappropriate scapegoat by Bulls fans in memory.
