This is a tough one. I've always debated this question myself and right now I would have to say yes, EVENTUALLY. Prolly not a first ballot HOF'er but will get in eventually.

No. Not every talented All-Star should go to the NBA.

MVP (show me a player who won this award and isn't in the hall)
Numerous Scoring Titles
Lead a bum @$% Sixers squad to the finals
Countless All Star Appearances
Impact on the game is as big as any player not named Jordan
Based solely on what he's done in between those 4 lines... there's no might about his induction.
the iverson hate on this board is atrocious.. people forgot how great iverson really was..... lets not forget that every top tier young pg in the league looked up to iverson when they were younger, iverson is a top 5 pg all time imo...

edit: my man c-webb should get in, but because of the michigan scandal idk when/if he'll get in...

*I WISH he stayed in DC...one of the worst trades ever. Do yall even know what the return was? An over-the-hill Mitch Richmond and Otis Thorpe. Think about that
That was the beginning of a string of stupid trades for nothing in return....Rasheed Wallace, Ben Wallace, Rip Hamilton all shipped off for garbage. Now do you remember why CWebb was traded from DC?

My man you must be trolling
How could you say no? We saw him play every night and how HE resurrected this franchise, and what happened to it after he left.
He gets in...

I would like him to get in... but looking at all the HOF snubs thus far I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't. If he does I think it will take a couple of years. And idk how or if the Michigan scandal will affect him.Originally Posted by LoveOfTheGame916

CWebb is one of my favorite players of all time, but I'm not sure if he gets in.
Someone mentioned him being "the guy" on every team he played on -- but was he ever dependable in the clutch or did he ever lead his team anywhere? Mike Bibby led the '02 Kings team in terms of executing when it mattered, without question. Chris always shrunk down the stretch every other season.
While his two years at Michigan were undoubtedly impactful and impressive, I also worry that the voting panel will hold the fact that his college career was vacated against him.
To me, his pro career was definitely a disappointment, given the pure skills he has. I just have a feeling he won't get in.
On the subject of HOF...I'm still trying to figure out how Reggie wasn't even eligible for a vote?

I love CWebb and he's one of the best PFs ever but his tendency to shrink in big moments should keep him away from the Hall. He was never the type to take a game into his hands when it counted. He didn't have the hunger.

I guarantee your referring to that game 5 shot he hit....you know the one where CWebb set the pick for him to get open.
His stat line that game:
29 Pts, 13 Rbs, 3 Ast, 12-23 Shooting
Series Average:
24.2 PPG, 10.8 RPG, 6.4 APG, 1.4 BPG, 1.0 SPG, 51.4% PCT
Yes I'm mad, and yes im going HAM because he's my favorite player of all time. (Well tied with Mitch Richmond)
**edit**
I'm not fronting on Mike Bibby by any stretch. Dude was easy money in the clutch. I just wish C.Webb didnt get dogged so much...

Is why I hate numbers as the main factor and why I'm driven to give my favorite cliche of "numbers don't lie, but they don't tell the whole story."
