Re: Is Shawn Marion a HOFer?
[QUOTE=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.[/QUOTE]
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

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

[QUOTE=cos88]in the same category as jamison/stackhouse so NO[/QUOTE]
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:
Re: Is Shawn Marion a HOFer?
Tough one. I give him a 10-20% chance to get in.

Love Marion, underrated swag master with all those moves. If not for that ugly J he would be renowned for his unorthodox post smooths.
Also.

Borderline HOF IMO. Wouldn't be surprised if he didn't but he has a chance.

No he doesn't because the f@ggot only started watching the NBA in 2011.
Re: Is Shawn Marion a HOFer?
Hell no man. Give me a few players that you consider the cut-off for being a HOFer.
Re: Is Shawn Marion a HOFer?
Maybe. He certainly has had a better career than some currently in the HOF right now.
Re: Is Shawn Marion a HOFer?
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.
