    Do you guys think that Rasheed is HOF material? I was thinking about this last night, and I dont think he is...he has never averaged 20ppg for a season, his attitude holds him down.

    He is the poster boy for bad conduct. Even worse than Bill Walton.

    Hey, I don't think he is either! How 'bout that. He's a good player, but only the greatest belong in the Hall. He obviously isn't one of the greatest.

    Not yet, but no doubt he's a very good player. Plus his attitude has really changed, what really shocks me is how good his mid range jumper is. If his attitude improves even more and he ups the output of his game, he probably will be after a very long career, he has to become a very major factor on the team, like having Ben at Center and him becoming the PF starter.

    so far, his career hasn't been good enough to be in the HOF.

    unless he has an amazing few years and maybe a few championships, i doubt he'll ever be considered.

    No chance. He is good but he isn't great. As others have pointed out, his numbers aren't spectacular and he is plagued by his attitude. He had the talent to be in the hall of fame and his numbers would have been much higher if he didn't have his attitude. It has been dragging him down his whole career.

    The Hall of Fame belongs to the elite members of the league, the NBA needs to have higher qualitifcations before considering a player. It's gotten to the point where it isn't too hard to qualify for the HOF, which is wrong.

    Rasheed Wallace isn't HOF prone. These players need to have a phenomenal carreer along with a solid off court record. So far, Wallace is an above-average player with some serious off court baggage.

    2 words.

    <u>HELL</u> NO

    Explanation is not needed. He is not even close to HOF material, and that's just ON the court.

    damn son...this dude is 30,or damn near close to it,so far he's been an above average NBA player with the skill to be all-world. He's got maybe 5 years of good playing years left before he hits a serious decline. No chance for the Hall Of Fame....plus how can you say you think he can make it when you agreed verbatum with what I said in the HOF thread about HOFers being the elite of the elite?

    Get with the program and stop this 'yes man' stuff playa..ain't no one gonna take you serious otherwise and you know this.
