On a serious note....they have to finally induct the innovator of small ball in an era where small ball has taken precedence worldwide.

It would only be fair.

I picked 4 people I do not know. And as an alternate, I would like to suggest Milicic, or Vitale. Both had fantastic Piston careers.

Seriously though,

Dantley
Ewing
Olajuwon
Dennis Johnson

Dang, no love for Dicky-V....wasuup wit' dat????
Dream, Vitale, Rush and Bill Davidson. Mr.D is getting up there, and I'd like to see folk make it while they're living. Remember MrD was the first owner to build HIS own arena w/out tax dollars and get a team plane.

What? I thought Darko was already in the HOF.

Dicky V deserves a spot. Awesome Baby is a mantra in college.

Dantley, Ewing, Johnson, and the man who pays Flip Saunders.

...Rufus Henry? - isn't he eligible this year?

I believe his bad eye is already in the HOF.


Is there a limit on how many can be inducted each year? I think 7 or 8 of these people could get inducted this year.
