Has there ever been a team to win it all with not one Hall of Famer? Seems that it would be unlikely to happen the only one I can think of Detroit Pistons but you could make a case for Billups or Wallace.

Wallace will get in.

The 79 Sonics might still be the answer had DJ not passed away and got the shame late vote in. He should have been in already....but they didnt do it till after he died.

I'm assuming your talking about kawhi. The problem with this we don't know if he won without a hof yet. Lowery, gasol and siakam could all end up being hof's.

He means an entire championship team that didn't consist of any HOFers. Kawhi is obviously a HOFer.

So were Derrick Rose, Ralph Sampson and Bo Jackson.

None of them won a ring, let alone multiple FMVPs.

So you're saying Kawhi is a HOF lock right now even if retired and never played another game?

Everyone else with multiple FMVPs is considered at least arguably a top 10 ATG (except Willis Reed.) Only one other (Kareem) won one with multiple franchises. I would say that achievement alone makes him a virtual lock.

Yes he's definitely a hall of famer

2x rings
2x FMVP
2x DPOY
2x All-NBA 1st team
3x NBA All-Defensive 1st team
3x All-Star

I'd say that's enough.
