    Yes to C Webb, yes to Paul Pierce, & yes to Ben Wallace. On the fence with Bosh……I just don’t consider him dominant. Those other 3 were dominant.

      Don’t be on the fence it’s a easy NO. Dude missed playoffs in the east he just lots of all stars cuz it was the EAST and east had no power Fs . Webb Paul and Ben and Ben is arguably lil better than Paul

    As a long time kings fan , Chris Webber deserve a to be a hall of fame he has a ring in my eyes

    To those talking about Ben Wallace, no

    He had a very short peak

    • Kyle Brown

      4x defensive player of the year in a league that didn’t play zone. That’s man to man defense. 4x all star and an nba champion. They’ve let people in for less.

      @Kyle Brown He played for 18 seasons

      He was elite for 4 or 5 of them, that’s it

      He was downright trash in his first 2 seasons, and also the 3 seasons of his second stint with the Pistons

      He was also bad/mediocre after leaving that Pistons squad

      So yes, out of his 18 year career, he really was only good in those 4 or 5 years, that’s it – beyond that he was very mediocre

      Yet has more All NBA selections than Pierce and Bosh With 4 DPOYs with 6 All defensive teams. Add a Chip and he’s definitely worthy.

    • Hiyuke La Vie

      April 12, 2020 at 2:31 pm

      @The Shadow It doesn’t work that way

      Dwight Howard has 8 All NBA team selections, and he is far from a lock from getting into the HoF

      When getting considered for induction into the HoF, you look at a players career

      And fact of the matter is, other than the 4 or 5 seasons when he was elite, Ben Wallace has been a pretty mediocre player for the duration of his 18 year career

    Paul Pierce, Ben Wallace, Chris Webber, Tracy Mcgrady, Chauncey Billups, Shawn Marion Chris Bosh.

      McGrady got inducted already

    Chris Webber not being in the hall of fame is a crime period. Chris Bosh will definitely get in the hall of fame at some point and Ben Wallace should be in the hall of fame. This 2020 hall of fame class is clearly the best class

    Cant wait to see Poul Pierce looking at his own highlights when he will beckm HOF.😂

    BIG BEN !!!

  13. Dennis Hunter

    April 9, 2020 at 2:02 pm

    And it’s 11 rings in this HOF class, it’s definitely the best class ever

    Paul pierce will be headlining next year, finally the spotlight that he deserved. Was overshadowed thru out his career.

  15. Richard Riley

    Whatever Hall of Fame Bill Russell went into is the best.

  16. Akshay Jagadish Rao

    It has to be Ben Wallace over C Webb.

    This class is proof that Kobe had the best competition over Jordan and got 5 rings would’ve had at least 8 if it won’t for Duncan Kobe and Lebrun both better than Jordan in my eyes

    • Humbled By Yah

      April 11, 2020 at 10:37 pm

      You clearly need to watch prime Jordan to 98 Jordan.

    • Anthony Adkins

      April 11, 2020 at 10:58 pm

      Humbled By Yah I did but his competition was nothing like Kobe with the spurs magic even had bird and other good teams lebron spurs golden state plus no team near as good as Jordan and still got 3 and been to 9 plus the Celtics and pistons he had to get thru Jordan had easiest error and as far as rules you couldn’t use zone so everybody was man to man lebron would’ve killed with them rules just like Kobe did until the zone came the Jordan thing is a myth I grew up watching him and the second best guy in his position was Drexler or Reggie Miller Kobe had t Mac Vince Carter ai Miller Ray Allen ganobili lebron Wade not even close

    The fact chris webber is not in the hall of fame is stupid

  20. Mamba Mentality

    Bruh what about Ray allen and dwade? They should be considered as well unless u have to be retired for a certain amount of years

    • Kevin R

      April 14, 2020 at 5:53 am

    Paul Pierce should be by himself. They should dedicate 2021 just for Paul Pierce and that’s it. No one should be in his class.
