LOL... lets take a quick look at some of the players you will recognize
and some that you wouldn't.
Dikembe Mutumbo is in the Hall of Fame. He was a journeyman center in the NBA who played for 6 different teams.
He was All-NBA 3 times. Meaning he was considered one of the top 15 players (even that was deceptive as they needed centers in a league without them) in the NBA 3 times during the course of his career (we wouldn't want to compare him to Dale Murphy who was considered the best player in his league twice and didn't make the HOF).
Tracy McGrady is in despite never winning a playoff series.
How about Zelmo Beaty? He made 3 all-star teams! Hall of Famer
Jo Jo White is enshrined.
That is just in the last 3 years!
Continuing on, did you know that 8 out of the 11 players on the 1960-61 Boston Celtics are Hall of Famers? This in an 8 team league!?!?
That year the Hawks and Warriors both had 4 Hall of Famers apiece and then I quite counting. Quite literally half of the league made the Hall.

Yep. Pretty interesting case. Many people objectively look at him and doubt, but a look subjectively at the numbers tell

Basketball hall of fame is actually very difficult to get into, almost on par with baseball. Unlike football and hockey

Basketball is a relatively new sport, and a lot of players have been inducted posthumously or long after their careers
