Our 2017 Basketball Revisions are Complete! Jason Kidd to #1
May 09, 2017
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
As always with us at Notinhalloffame.com it is always a continuing process!
When one Hall of Fame Class gets in, we need to look at updating our respective lists. As such, we are proud to announce that we have updated our Notinhalloffame.com Basketball List.
The recent class only claimed two former players off of the ranking, Tracy McGrady (#2) and George McGinnis (#12) but there are quite a few former players who we feel are deserving of a rank and much like the other lists, we have plans to increase the number from the even 100 to 200. For now, we now have a less than perfect number of 106, but that will only be a temporary number.
Let’s get to the new rankings shall we?
Although our #1 was not chosen, we have a new star at the top of our perch. Five time First Team All NBA Selection Jason Kidd debuts at #1. The current coach of the Milwaukee Bucks is a ten time All Star and is currently #2 all-time in Steals and Assists.
Chris Webber was ranked #1 last year, and he drops to #2. We have been long since championing Webber for the Hall, and while he did not get selected last year, he finally was named a Finalist for the first time, which at least gives us reason to be optimistic.
At #3, we have another new entrant, Grant Hill. A two time NCAA Champion at Duke, Hill was a major star in the NBA, tallying seven trips to the All Star Game, until severe injuries took him off of that level, though this is still a man who played 18 years in the NBA.
While there are many new entrants, only Jason Kidd and Grant Hill crack the top ten.
Seven Time Al-Star Jack Sikma remains in the #4 spot. Sikma helped the Seattle SuperSonics win the NBA Championship.
Sidney Moncrief dropped two spots to #5. While he dropped here (mostly due to the eligibility of Kidd and Hill) he is coming off being named a Finalist.
Former multi-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year Ben Wallace swapped places with former Seattle star, Shawn Kemp at #6 and #7 respectively.
Max Zaslofsky remains at number 8. Zaslofsky was a First Team All BAA/NBA Selection from the 1946-47 season to the 1949-50 season.
Two time NBA Champion with the Detroit Pistons, Mark Aguire tumbled from #5 to #9. Aguire was also a three time All Star.
Tim Hardaway completes the top 10. Hardaway, a five time All Star was a Finalist last year.
There are additional new entries to discuss.
The master of the technical foul, Rasheed Wallace enters at #22. Wallace was a star for both Portland and Detroit, the latter of with he helped take to an NBA Championship.
Two time All Star Jerry Stackhouse debuts at #49 and bookending the #50 rank is new entry Marcus Camby. Camby’s rank is a little interesting considering he was never an All Star, but he is a former two-time Defensive Player of the Year and also won the Naismith College Player of the Year when he was at UMass.
The other new entries are Richard Hamilton (#75) and Lamar Odom (#104).
You know what we want you to do!

Paul Pierce is now retired
May 03, 2017
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
We are a little late in taking a look at this at this, but a very significant retirement has taken place in the National Basketball Association.
Los Angeles Clipper, Paul Pierce announced prior to the 2016-17 season that this would be his last in the National Basketball Association. With the Clippers first round exit at the hands of the Utah Jazz, the career of Pierce officially came to an end.
A First Team All-American in 1998 at the University of Kansas, Pierce was drafted 10th overall by the Boston Celtics and would immediately become a starter. Pierce would really blossom in his third season where he finished with an average of over 25 Points per Game, and the following season he would go to his first of ten All Star Games. He would also be named a Second Team All NBA Selection once and a three time Third Team All NBA Selection.
While statistically it wasn’t his best season, 2007-08 has to be the most magical one for Pierce. In the Celtics off-season, they acquired Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett and they would win the NBA Championship with Pierce leading the way as the Finals MVP.
Overall, Paul Pierce retired with 1,343 Games Played with a 19.7 Points per Game Average. In our eyes, Pierce will get into the Basketball Hall of Fame and likely on the first ballot.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Paul Pierce on his outstanding career and we wish him the best in his post playing career.

The St. Louis Cardinals Announce their 2017 HOF Class
Apr 29, 2017
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
We have said before that the St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame has quickly become one of our favorite franchise Halls.
Today they added to it as three former St. Louis Cardinals, Mark McGwire, Pepper Martin and Tim McCarver have been chosen.
Traded from the Oakland Athletics midway through 1997, Mark McGwire brought an even bigger bat to the Midwest. In 1998, McGwire would set the new single season Home Run Record with 70, and followed it up with 65 the year after. In his four and a half seasons with St. Louis, he tallied 220 Home Runs with a 1.111 OPS.
Achieving more fame as a broadcaster, Tim McCarver was a Cardinal for twelve seasons. An All Star twice, McCarver helped St. Louis win the World Series in 1964 an d 1967 and would accumulate 1,029 Hits over his career with the Red Birds.
Like McCarver, Pepper Martin also helped St. Louis win two World Series Championships (1931 & 1934). A member of the famed “Gashouse Gang”, Martin was an All Star four times and led the National League in Stolen Bases three times.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate the newest members of the St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame.
