Is Shawn Marion a HOFer?

[NYKnicks914]

Well?

[JohnFreeman]

No

[HOoopCityJones]

Suns Shawn Marion was always fun to watch and helped those Suns teams get to their 50 win seasons.

Then he won a ring with Dirk playing some very solid D.

So yea , i'd give him the nod.

[LeBron 06]

No

[Cold soul]

Nope. He had very good career though.

[BrooklynZoo]

:wtf:

[cos88]

in the same category as jamison/stackhouse so NO

[SugarHill]

How is he not a HoF?

Ring as a very important piece (don't let that Dirk hype fool you for a moment)
Amazing stats for his peak (we're talking 20/10/2/2 and those last two are steals and blocks)
Best of generation level defense
consistency and durability

Give the man his due. The HoF isn't as prestigious as you think it is. Much worse players have gotten in.

[Milbuck]

Great player, but just didn't log enough minutes in a Bucks uniform for my liking. So no

[CelticBaller]

in the same category as jamison/stackhouse so NO
hell no, he was definitely better than both

I think he has a small chance

[RightToCensor]

I'd rather have Marion in the HOF than a rapist

i would let him in just for the amount of 3-pointers he made with his T-Rex form

what dirk hype? you mean the one where he had arguably the greatest playoff run of all time?

its not as if people havent given him credit during the playoffs

very good career but not hof worthy imo

[HOoopCityJones]

You know she begged for the D.

[Combat Wombat]

You know she begged for the D.

Of course he knows. He's just jealous that she got the BBC while he has feast on Jeremy Lin-sized wieners.

[ImKobe]

in the same category as jamison/stackhouse so NO

You do realize he's a much better defender and a rebounder than those two and he actually won a ring while being a big contributor for the team?:coleman:

[Mure]

Tough one. I give him a 10-20% chance to get in.

[Uncle Drew]

Also.

No he doesn't because the f@ggot only started watching the NBA in 2011.

[Alan Ogg]

Hell no man. Give me a few players that you consider the cut-off for being a HOFer.

[Collie]

Maybe. He certainly has had a better career than some currently in the HOF right now.

[Scal]

Simply put no.

Marion was great back in his Suns days, but his stats were slightly inflated on those teams due to pace and playing alongside such a great play maker in Nash. He was perfect for those teams because of his versatility though. But Nash and Stoudamire were the main guys on that team, and you could argue that the outside shooters (Richardson, Johnson, Bell, etc.) were just as important because they helped create so much room for the PnR.

Was very valuable in that '11 Mavs run, but Dirk (obviously), Terry and Chandler were all far more valuable. On the Mavs you see Marion being a non-threat offensively, standing in the corner. Still solid, but you were never worried about him taking over a game.

People seem too trigger happy in sending guys into the Hall. For me, glorified role players (the Horry/7-ring defense) shouldn't be there. I want guys who were MVP candidates, multiple All-star appearances and All-NBA nominations, over multiple seasons. Marion just doesn't fit that.

[Im so nba'd out]

no brainer yes

[RightToCensor]

no brainer yes
It's obvious you have no brain.

[jbryan1984]

Maybe one day but he aint a first ballot by any means. Had some good years in phoenix and was a big part of their success with nash and amare.

[HomieWeMajor]

Player who could legitimately guard all 5 positions. Also had the stats to back up his case.
1st ballot when it's all said and done.

[kNIOKAS]

This caught me off-guard.

Of course he isn't, who are thosee people - like a poster above - telling us that he is? :eek:

[moaz]

I think he deserve to be in. When he was with the Suns, he was the one who could beat you.

actually, I just can figure out how can you write so many posts in such short time.

[Brain Becker]

No

[Det the Threat]

if you factor in the talent level that is needed to achieve his numbers and percentages without the ability to perform a real basketball shot, it's a lock.

Firstly regarding the bolded, Marion did just as well with Marbury at the point.

Also Marion was one of the outside shooters at that point and Suns didn't fall off much without STAT.

And Horry is in no way analagous to Marion. Horry at his best was an above average starter. Marion got some MVP votes (not many of course), 4 time all-star, 2 time 3rd team all NBA, and that arguably undersells him.

It fine to say he isn't your idea of what a HOF-er should be, but looks who actually gets in: e.g. Chris Mullin based off a 4 year peak and being on the Dream Team, Rodman a very good specialist/role player but a role player nonetheless (2 ASG, 2 3rd team All-NBA), those are the big names of the class of '11, in '12 it was Ralph Sampson who started well but only regressed in the pros and was finished as even semi-notable within 3 years. Marion is at least at that standard.

My stance would be that he deserves to be in (not a clear cut easy in, but in) though I'm not sure he will get in, and he won't get in quickly.

[andgar923]

He's a role player that wasn't even special at that. He wasn't great at anything to be honest.

He was basically Cedric Ceballos 2.0 with better defense and athleticism.

[Owl]

He was basically Cedric Ceballos 2.0 with better defense and athleticism.
Apex Ceballos put up close to 2 points every three minutes on strong percentages. Like Marion he was a good rebounder especially for a 3.

Combine that with with strong, versatile D (including steals and blocks) and a longer prime and that's not chopped liver.

Admittedly Marion was never quite as potent a scorer as apex Ceballos, but that package (%s, rebounds, blocks, steals, runs the floor, versatile etc) whether hypothetical improved Ceballos (high volume scorer) or Marion (high-mid volume scorer) combing all that together is very, very rare and highly valuable.

But neither is a HOFer.

Role players? Yes, role players usually find themselves on all-nba teams. They usually become all-stars, multiple times at that. They usually do 20/10 seasons. :rolleyes:

Yeah, but is that HOF worthy?

NO

HOFers are their team's leaders, more than not they're 'franchise' players. At worse, they've been a huge part in their team's role to win a number of championships or maintain their level at the top on a very consistent basis. Cedric and Shawn are good at what they do, neither of them are as great as say Rodman.

So in short, Marion's name and HOF shouldn't even be in the same sentence.

Go look at the damn HoF before talking out of your ass. Perhaps you'll be surprised at the names.

I can almost guarantee that the players that aren't 'franchise' players were either:

-Multiple champions and played a pivotal role
-Helped revolutionize an aspect/position

Marion has done nothing of being remembered. A solid player barely an all star at his peak. Has done nothing on the collegiate level or international play worth noting either.

22/12/2/2 are barely all-star numbers?

Find everyone, in the modern era, who has done that stat line. It will be Hakeem and Robinson. Pretty good company, I'd say.

Also, go look at the HoF and come back and tell me how you really feel.

[hitmanyr2k]

I've always thought HOFers should have been Top 3-5 at their position for a consistent period of time, revolutionized their position somehow, or at least excelled at something so much that it couldn't be ignored. I don't think Marion meets the criteria. Stats aren't everything and should be put into context. Marion wasn't putting up 20/10 like most stars in the league. He was a good garbageman on a fast-paced team. He used his athleticism and ran the floor hard for layups and dunks (it helps when Marbury, Kidd or Nash are spoonfeeding you) and hit the offensive glass for put-backs but he wasn't the guy you were going to throw the ball to and have him create for himself or anyone else. If Marion were a serious offensive threat and putting up 20/10 he would certainly have more than two All-NBA third teams.

[BoutPractice]

Only 4 all-star games and a title as a complementary piece shouldn't get you in the HOF.

[Yi Jianlin]

没办法

[fpliii]

It's disturbing that he's NEVER made a single All-Defensive Team. Then again, in 2014, I don't think many take accolades seriously anymore, fortunately.

[Legends66NBA7]

Marion's peak year was 05-06 when he became the 1st scoring option when Amare went down. Where did he rank among players that year ? Top 15-20 ? :confusedshrug:

Just can't see the substance for him going in, but I wouldn't exactly be surprised if he went in either. The basketball HOF is easy mode standards.

I would say Marion was penalized for playing on those Suns teams who were average defensively but then again Raja Bell made the All-D team when playing with the Suns so who knows?

He was a reserve for almost all of them was he not? that's "barely" making it.

Yeah... go look at HOFers and compare them to Marion.

Do not solely judge them by their stats, but by their accomplishments and contributions.

Marion was a good rebounder that wasn't guarded, he was left alone to roam free offensively on teams that shot a ton of shots and missed them as well.

He was a solid/good defender but never a Defensive Player Player of the Year candidate (was he even ever in the running?).

[Legends66NBA7]

Yeah, that's what I did too. Also, I went by how they were regarded at their respective time. Marion's best production came in a span of years was from... 01-02 to 05-06. Was ever regarded as a Top 10 player ? Or the best at his position ? Top 5 at his position perhaps ? And even then, it didn't last very long.

Like I said before, he's not HOF according to the standards I see it. The HOF should be for the very elite level of players. The ones that were consistently up there as perennial all-stars, number of all-nba/defensive teams, MVP voting, memorable and very high level of playoff runs, etc... Marion just doesn't meet that requirement. But obviously, as there have been worse player who have made it in, I wouldn't be surprised if he went in.

[andgar923]

Out of the 'active' HOF probability players he ranks at no.21.

Now those are for players that are active. He's eligible after he retires (forgot the number of seasons). Not only that, he has to go up against other players that haven't been inducted yet that have been in the ballot in the past. On top of that, he has to go up against international and college players. Those are just players, that's not including coaches, and other people that made a contribution to the game of basketball.

And even then, his numbers are misleading like hitman explained above.

Nobody that's seen him play will think "he's a HOF player!!!"

Not a 1st ballot, not a 2nd, not a 3rd, not a 4th, not a 5th.

I'd agree, but I think he's likely going to make it in based on some of the selections in the past. I do think you're underrating his chances somewhat given how the HOF selects guys, but I'm more of a small hall guy personally. A lot of players who have been enshrined have had no business making it in, but Naismith is very inclusive (compared to Cooperstown for instance...the voters there are misguided, but I like a more exclusive hall).

[andgar923]

Even if there's been worse players. People aren't inducted to the HOF solely for their play, there's other factors that come into play. Also, most of them were from the earlier eras that are considered pioneers.

Im sure fans 30 years from now, will look at some of the players inducted from our generation and look at their stats and be like :wtf: :facepalm :rolleyes: but we'd remember them fondly. Which is one of the reasons why I try hard not to debate or judge players from previous eras (70s and earlier).

For most of us that saw him play, he's not a HOF player.

Shit, just not to long ago we were arguing whether or not Cweb was a HOF player, people were debating whether or not VC was a HOF candidate as well as Pau Gasol.

Now players all have a legit chance at being in the HOF, Marion doesn't belong in the same sentence as them.

Naw... there's a list of players that have a legit shot that have yet to be elected, and they may still be in the running when he's eligible.

IF (big IF)

He is ever to be inducted, it'll be like 15 years after he's eligible.

Not sure if serious.

[Owl]

Yeah, but is that HOF worthy?

NO

HOFers are their team's leaders, more than not they're 'franchise' players. At worse, they've been a huge part in their team's role to win a number of championships or maintain their level at the top on a very consistent basis. Cedric and Shawn are good at what they do, neither of them are as great as say Rodman.

So in short, Marion's name and HOF shouldn't even be in the same sentence.
How about the aforementioned Reggie. Not a franchise player (5 time all-star, 3 time 3rd team All-NBA, two years of very peripheral MVP vote getting; all very similar to Marion, as was Rodman).

A number of championships? No. Were the Pacers consistently "On top"? No, they had one season, one, with an SRS above 5 (a very rough benchmark for legit contenders, 7 teams are above it this season).

Marion was fortunate to play at a fast pace with Marbury and Nash? Wasn't Miller lucky to land in an offense that was willing to run screen after screen for him to get shots? To play with the second best passing point guard of that era (3rd in career total assists behind Stockton and Kidd).

Marion isn't as memorable, he doesn't have a calling card like Rodman (rebounding, crazy, early career D) or Miller (all time great shooter, memorable playoff moments) so if you want it to be literally a Hall of Fame, maybe Marion can be out and those guys be in. But if it's about the quality of play he's in their ballpark.

You mention C-Webb, was he a franchise? He had an incredible uber-deep supporting cast in Sacramento, yet he didn't get to any finals. He was the face of two franchises that passed him on (for lesser players) because he was considered a malcontent (not to mention what he did to Michigan, or that Orlando traded him for Penny), who couldn't carry a franchise. He probably has less truly productive years than Marion (after his rookie year, he only got started again in '97 and was done after injuries in 2002). Like Miller and Marion he played with great passers. When he fell of substantially his team barely got any worse. But he looked like a franchise getting 24ppg so we can ignore the woeful shooting (from the field and the line). And then add in a reputation for shrinking in the clutch/playoffs establish in folklore by his NCAA timeout and backed up by his playoff stats (even after accounting for playing some playoff time outside his prime).

You can nitpick any of the non-legends (top 40-50 or so) like this. But they're in the Hall as it stands (or will be, in Webber's case). And as I said Marion doesn't have a calling card. Still, if it's about how well you played pro basketball, and the bar is where it is now, Marion deserves it.

I didn't agree with Reggie getting in but Ginobili is a special case where he's been a big part of winning anywhere he's gone. His resume speaks for itself...Euroleague championship and MVP, big contributor to 3 NBA championships as the 2nd or 3rd best player on the team, 2004 Olympic gold medal as leader of his team and it doesn't hurt he's always been a very exciting player to watch.
