Is Becky Hammon being inducted strictly as a player or for her entire career (player + coach). If the former, could she end up getting inducted twice if she ends up the first female head coach?

Becky is being inducted based on her playing career. She does not qualify for the HoF as a coach yet.

That said, Bill Russell was inducted twice...both as a player and a coach, so it is possible. But Becks has a long way to go to catch up to that.

You can be inducted multiple times for multiple roles.

goes along with being that high up in minutes/games played as well

in points per game he's 146th, and in assists per game he's 91st

TP’s Instagram story right now is pretty lit tbh. Held a huge party with friends, fam, and former teammates at his (insane) house/mini water park in San Antonio, including clips of good pal Thierry Henry drunkenly dancing like a madman. They just landed in Connecticut a few min ago with the rest of the HOF class. Legendary class tbh.

What a great way to top off the Spurs' 50th Anniversary Celebration with the last key pieces of the Spurs' Dynasty, with the HOF induction of Pop and TP9! As I'm watching NBA TV, they are showing some Spurs tributes of Tony, Pop and the Spurs. It's truly amazing to be a Spurs fan, and to enjoy the incredible run this organization has had over the past 50 years! As a new chapter begins this fall with Wemby, here's looking at continued success to this storied franchise! Cheers!

[John B]

^ nicely said. It was a great run and here’s hoping long and multiple trophies with Wemby and Co :bobo

LMAO How many shitty WNBA games have you been to? I went to one finals game years ago and it was the lamest shit I've ever seen in my life. Parking was more expensive than the $5 tickets for row 8 at a fucking finals game! :lmao

You can keep pretending the WNBA is a massive win and the league is legit while it's subsidized by the men and the whole of the NBA. That league is a fucking joke no matter how hard you try to convince everyone otherwise and you know it too.

Oh no I'm a misogynistic asshole. Bro you learned that word not even 4 years ago! :lmao

Who had the best speech from the big 3?

TP's speech was good, loved the zingers he was throwing out at guys like Dirk, Wade, Pop, Gasol, Lebron, etc.

Loved his comments about Finley, that was super gratifying for Mike to get a ring after 2006's loss to the Mavs

I would have to go for Tim's though....heartfelt through and through from a guy who doesn't like to talk a lot

[GAustex]

Good for Tony

I and I bet others would say they never expected this when they first saw Tony and the few years after.

Dude was a blur with the ball.

[Dex]

Dude was a blur with the ball.

One of my very first posts on SpursTalk was a thread debating whether Tony was a top 5 PG in the league. At the time (2004), it was comparing him against guys like Kidd, Nash, Payton, Marbury, Davis, etc...and obviously got mixed reviews.

Proud of how far he has come, and the proof is in the pudding.

Wade's wife looks like a PS1 character with the pointy polygon tits :lol

[paperboy77]

Tony's speech was really great. Pop was good but seemed underwhelming for some reason. Becky was also really good. Is that lady gay? I don't think she even mentioned that lady watching her kids.

Didn’t you swear to not be a misogynistic prick.

calm down Malika Andrews.

The WNBA is pure shit. It is boring as hell. Becky Hammon is my favorite WNBA player of all-time, so I am happy she is in the HOF. I also liked Cynthia Cooper. Still, over 20 years as a league, and not one time have they made a profit. The NBA subsidizes the entire fiasco. Then, the women have the gall to call out the NBA players, criticize them for lack of support, and even claim they are just as good, if not better than the NBA players. They bitch about equal play, but none of them actually passed a business or economics class apparently. When your business makes less than zero money, you should be thankful and lucky to get paid at all.

The NBA players offered an idea to lower the rim a half a foot to get more dunking and excitement. The women took it as an insult. They already use a smaller ball. If I am not mistaken, the 3pt line is shorter than the NBA as well. They get butthurt about everything. They play shit basketball and act as if it is quality and entertaining. They throw their woke agendas, politics, anti-American stances and sexual preferences in our faces and act like we have to accept it and celebrate it with them. Apparently heterosexual women are ridiculed and emotionally and verbally abused in the league. Also, pregnant players are treated like crap. No, just shut up and play good basketball. That is why people want to watch you.....for your basketball skills.

They want us to celebrate Griner and her return, why? She was a domestic abuser before she went to Russia. If she were a male player, she would have been kicked out of the NBA and been in jail for beating the snot out of her wife. She consistently bashed America and acted as if it were oppressive and held her down. Then she goes to Russia, breaks their laws, and ends up in prison. Now, she wants the US government to help her sorry ass. Of course, Biden and his stupid woke ass trades one of the worst humans on the planet for this basketball playing piece of shit. So, now she comes home and the coach bitches and moans because no one shows up and no one cares.

BTW, fuck those sorry woke ass USWNT soccer players too. How are you going to sign up for the National team and then bash the team and the country? How are you going to not stand for our flag and our anthem? Go fuck yourselves you stupid bitches. I was so happy when Sweden embarrassed them.

You want people to support you. Then I suggest you watch OU softball and see how they do it. They play as a team. They are cocky, yes, but they also back it up with great play. Also, they actually show some humility as well and give praise to God, one another, coaches, and fans. I hate OU with a passion, as I am a Longhorns homer and an Islanders grad, but I give credit where it is due. Those girls win with domination, class, respect, and pride.

That's just doing your job, which is like a very small percentage of your time on earth, as an athlete.

Modern NBA fans consider Bruce once of the dirtiest players ever without realizing this dude played overseas and in the 90s when all the "dirty" stuff he did was allowed. The game was just way more physical back then.

Did he stretch the limits? Yes, maybe...but real players like Kobe accepted the challenge instead of whining about it. He was as physical as the refs would allow him to be and hardly ever fouled out of a game.

Going back to my question. How is RC not in the Hall of Fame? Don’t they elect GM in HOF in basketball? I think in baseball they do. The guy is very much deserving, as many see as the standard of organizational excellence many envy.

I thought all the speeches were pretty good. Pop was a little long-winded, but that's fine.

Can you imagine Nephew's speech should he get in? "Uhhhmm, I like basketball. Uhhmmm, like I was saying, I like basketball, and it was great to play basketball. I put a lot of work into the game over the years...practiced a lot, put my heart in it. Uhmmm, I'd like to thank everyone who made this possible, all my teammates and my family. Thank you."


It will be the quickest HOF speech in the history of sports.

Can you imagine Nephew's speech should he get in? "Uhhhmm, I like basketball. Uhhmmm, like I was saying, I like basketball, and it was great to play basketball. I put a lot of work into the game over the years...practiced a lot, put my heart in it. Uhmmm, I'd like to thank everyone who made this possible, all my teammates and my family. Thank you."


It will be the quickest HOF speech in the history of sports.

I wonder who he would ask to induct him? Doubt any Spurs HOFers would oblige, and it has to be a HOFer.

I was curious and googled former Clippers in the HOF, and only Bob McAdoo was there for 5 years. The rest are 1 year stint.. Walton was there for 4. What a pathetic franchise :lol:lol

I at one time thought that MJ might oblige, but I'm sure his litigation against Jordan Brand for that stupid logo killed that chance.

I feel like our Spurs HOFers are such gracious individuals that they'd be the bigger man and oblige him. But I'd see Nephew going random and probably asking someone like LeBron, who should be in the hall before him.

LeBron is probably pissed that Nephew dissed the Lakers to sign with the Clip Show.

Not one of our HOFers even mentioned Neph in their speeches. I think there are still hard feelings.

Yeah
And McAdoo and Walton are pre-LA

Just kidding. I do think his uncle should get an award for milking the NBA out of millions for a guy to stay home and play video games. Genius!

My guess is Reggie Miller since they're both from the Inland Empire.

Reggie does hate the Spurs, so he'd probably do it out of spite.

What does black Adam silver have against the spurs?

Maybe Kawhi can "shop around" for a HOF inductor like he did for medical opinions.
