Nope. I'm far from being little and a kid.
He gave a Black kid $500 cash. Supposedly it's a common thing that he does.
Common? Can the NCAA trace every kid he's given cash to back to Duke somehow? Fingers crossed

Lamarcus Aldridge retires due to a heart condition.
3/1 odds he gets in the HOF eventually.

Add at least one zero behind that 3. Maybe two.

How many from this millennium? Just because a few people from the 60s and 70s are lower on random scale, that uses height in the formula, doesn't mean he deserves to be in. He had a good peak, but it wasn't very long. Maybe 4 or 5 years. Never once first team all-NBA. All-Star in less than half of his seasons. That formula also uses your position on the all time leading scorers list. He was only in the top 20 for season scoring 7 times in 16 years, but playing that many seasons will get you higher on the list. The only thing he ever led the league in for a season was FGA, 4 times. And only one of those did he lead the league in made FG.

He was always a very good player, I just don't think he was ever HOF level outside 2 or 3 years in Portland.

I don't disagree with you at all, he seems borderline at best.

But, all of these new stat geeks that have no idea what they are watching are starting to get HOF votes. Anymore, if the stats are there, there is a shot.

3 to 1 means 25% - so I don't think he gets in.
But I do think he has a shot.

Embiid looking every bit of an MVP tonight. Sixers mauling the Clippers early.

Very rarely do I buy KU/NBA jerseys, but I have two Embiid Sixers jerseys; watching him play, especially this year, makes me proud as a mofo.

Embiid and LeBrons injuries eliminated them from the MVP race.

Jokic.
But with Murray done, Nugs could be out in the first round.
Part of the reason why I think MVP should be after the post season.

This is about old stuff, but thought Jeannie Buss' insight into the blocked CP3 to the lakers trade back in the day was interesting. Didn't know that's how/why it went down.
