Anyone not voting in all 3 of these guys would never hear the end of it. 3 top 15 all time players.

Probably. All 3 would be at worst top 20 all time. TD is top 10, Kobe borderline top 10.

I wonder if the people who trashed Vlade's induction because they don't know **** about international basketball are now going to complain because of the female candidates among whom at least one will be selected.

Combined 3 players
48x allstar
39x all nba
39x all defense

Talk about crazy to look at. and their all nba years all overlap.

As long if Kobe and KD and Kevin make it together I think people will be somewhat happy with it . The lady that won as HC , Assistant coach and player has good argument over Rudy

Kobe and TD have a combined 10 rings total (5 each). That's insane. I still feel like they are severely underrated, specially on these forums.

Kobe is anything but underrated on these forums.

Shaq on the other hand, is grossly underrated historically.
