    Definitely a HOFer. He's the only living Velociraptor to date. National treasure tbh.

    Being the 3rd wheel on a team that wins multiple championships is more likely to lead to a HOF career than repeatedly leading a crappy team to a 7th/8th seed and getting bounced in the 1st round.

    He's not a HOFer, but him staying in Toronto wouldn't have changed that.
    18/8 maximum for the rest of his career as a poor man's Rodman = better chance than 24/11 for maybe 7 prime years?

    PFs in recent years who are borderline HoF guys, but will get in before Bosh:
    Chris Webber
    Shawn Kemp
    Pau Gasol

    PFs who are similar to Bosh's chances of making HoF (these may be players who were rated lower because they didn't get to ring-chase with Lebron James, but they were, at least at some points in their career, better than or equal to Bosh at his best, and I doubt any of them can make the HoF):
    Larry Johnson
    Antonio McDyess
    Jermaine O'Neal
    Elton Brand
    Carlos Boozer
    Zach Randolph

    PFs who will likely have a better chance to get in HoF than Bosh:
    Blake Griffin
    LaMarcus Aldridge
    Kevin Love

    Yes, especially since he would've never won a playoff series while in Toronto.

    He averaged 24 PPG once on Toronto and never averaged 11 boards, so idk where the scenario that he'd average 24/11 for 7 years came from. His averages were closer to 22/10.

    And yeah, putting up 18/8 on a team that wins multiple championships is a more impressive HOF resume than 22/10 (0r 24/11) on a team that barely makes/misses the playoffs every year.

    Going to Miami was better for his chances ...

    But come on, if he is a HOF AT THIS STAGE much less 4 years ago then CWebb and Kemp (like amb said earlier ...gosh he and I are agreeing again ...wtf?!) should be shoo-ins ...

    Player (per 36min - Career) PPG RPG BPG APG
    Duncan 20.6 11.5 2.3 3.1
    Garnett 19 10.4 1.5 3.9
    Amare 22.5 9.1 1.5 1.5
    Bosh 19.4 8.9 1.1 2.1

    I dont know if this guy is or isnt a HOF, but the fact that he says he is, is disturbing...

    I agree with Bosh...He's Hall of Fame Material and he has a ring....Bosh > Pau all day long....Lebron needs these kind of players to take him to that next level....Kobe won back to back without HOF players...Bynum had knees and we all know Pau won't get in...

    the only HOF player that Kobe rang with is Shaq...Lebron needed 2 - Wade and Bosh..what a sucker man what a sucker

    Wrong... he took some absolute scrubs to the Finals and numerous 60-win seasons in Cleveland....

    Pau has a very good chance at getting in once you factor in his international career, as well as his performance in carrying Kirby on his back to two rings and getting none of the credit, tbh...

    There's something wrong with you man. You need to see a psychiatrist of some sort. Gasol is a HOF'er.

    HOF'er criteria by fans has changed dramatically throughout the years. I remember then players that totally shaped the game were the only candidates. Kareem, Jordan, Pippen, Olajuwon, Rodman, Bird, Magic, Dr. J for examples are the golden standard of what a HOF should be made of.


    Now we have people saying Vince Carter, Bosh, Webber, Kemp, Ray Allen as HOF worthy? What the is this?


    In this generation, you can only name a few HOF'er that really belongs in this list.

    1.Duncan
    2.Kobe
    3.Garnett
    4.Shaq
    5.Yao
    6.Manu
    7.P. Gasol
    8. Lebron
    9. Pierce
    10. Dirk
    11. Wade

    The rest are pretenders.

    Kind of like Tony Parker likely now making the hall of fame being the third best player on a team that won multiple championships, behind Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili. Very good player, but probably not hall of fame on his own.

    Yao is a Hof like it or not. He was Jeremy Lin x 10 in both impact and performance. No one in China even knew what a basketball is. He simply helped the league gain worldwide exposure that hasnt been done since Jordan played for the Bulls.

    Jumped the Shark Two Years Ago_Man; Lebron takes others to the next level with him, unlike Kobe who's team cannot win unless he stops shooting.

    CP3 may be in the HOF but he doesn't have the credentials yet.

    People have selective memories or are simply too young to comprehend. Understandably, he had a short lived career but Yao was bigger than anybody else both in stature and cultural brand.

    After Yao became the Rockets center, companies competed with each other to build a partnership with NBA. In the history of Chinese sports, there had never been a person as successful as Yao Ming. Because of Yao Ming, NBA has built a strongest cultural bond with China that has never been seen in other markets, and China has become the largest foreign market for the NBA.


    Forbes came out with an estimate amount of money Yao has helped brought to the league. It was easily around the $650 million mark.

    He's played only 4 season of which he played 60 or more games. Being a great ambassador for the game doesn't give you a free pass to the hall. If you're going to allow players like Yao in, then your going to have to build a bigger hall to let in all those players with comparable numbers. He played a total of 486 games in eight seasons.

    Btw, Ray Allen definitely makes the hall, not too sure about Manu and Gasol.

    It's not really his fault Colangelo surrounded him with bozos like Bustnani and Cal'eron, tbh.
