Dwight Howard and Trae Young are two that come to mind right off the bat...

Luka and Trae pretty much it for young guys in the league now that are still young enough to build the resume. Middle age guys like Klay can maybe get in there with 3-4 more strong years. Howard is too old if he didn't get in now he ain't getting in.

Funny how we're starting to say 'getting in' like this is the Hall of Fame. I think it will start to be seen as the REAL HoF, since the current one is very accepting with lots of good but not great players in there. The Top 50/75/100 list will be looked at as the truly GREAT players.

Excellent post. The panel list has Kareem,Bill Russell,Jordan. If they say a player is great we believe it. Hall of Fame voters is mainly the media if im not mistaken. These list are popularity contests basically. Klay will definetely get in that I agree.

Speak for yourself. I never looked at it as a HOF.

Basically 25 more players will be added in the next 25 years. Howard's getting in and that's all there is to that.

I still have hope that Bob Lanier will get in even though he won't be alive to see it.

I'll let Stephen A know your take

It's apparent that @msgkings322 and @bksballer89 watch Stephen A. Smith on a frequent basis and I don't. Are you guys entirely sure that his catch phrase is "That's all there is to that" as opposed to "That's all there is to it"? :scratch:

Bob Lanier, Dwight and a few others of the list were all better than Bill Walton. The guy had what, 2 great years? That’s it

So wrong, so triggered, so revealing, so easy. Please don't change.

Klay
LaMelo

Not all 7 of these will make it probably but who knows. Long way to go.
If Klay can have a few more years of what he was it’s possible. I don’t see it with Lamelo.
