RE: HOF? Mailday
Nice pickups.
So, I checked NBA.com and Bernard kings numbers. He has almost 20,000 points and over 5000 rebounds in a 13 year career.
And comparing those numbers against other players who have gotten in (Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, Kevin McHale) he has better numbers. But then what is the problem? Why did all of those players get in before him? He stopped playing in 1993 so he was eligible for the HOF in 1998/99. It has been 14 years. I'm not saying he is not worthy, just there is nothing else he can do now to improve his chances. So if he is going to make it in, what is going to change in the minds of the voters that will push him over the top.
