    I know that the lakers and knicks have had teams where they've sent 5 players to the hall, but i thought there were some old celtics teams that had like 7 guys go. Does anyone know what the team with the most was?

    What a nut if you think Payton and Malone will go down as LAKERS HOFers. They will be Sonic, and Jazz HOFers.

    Duh.

    Yea I agree. They played only for one season and didn't do anything close to what Payton did in Seattle and what Malone did in Utah

    I thought the question was how many Hall Of Fame players played for one team; No way do I think Payton's and Malone's perfromances with the Lakers are HOFesque by any means.
