Not to mention being a 3-time College Player of the Year, being one of the greatest college players of ALL-TIME, back-to-back national titles, a 88-game win streak, two consecutive 30-0 seasons. But you probably have no idea about that, from the sounds of it.Originally Posted by TraSoul82

really don't get the Hall of Fame being called the Hall of Fame when it
should really be called the "Hall of Great Stats." Bill Walton is in
with 1 ring and an injury-plagued career where he did have some great
stats to start, but averaged 47 games per season over his 10 active
years in the league. He averaged a double-double 4 times and never
scored 20+ ppg in a season. He ended up averaging 10.3 ppg, 10.5 Reb,
3.4 ast, and 2.2 blk in the NBA on top of his notable college career .
To me, this means Grant Hill is 1 ring shy of being in the HoF. But
clearly, I digress...
Know about something before you speak... comparing Grant Hill to Bill Walton... give me a break.
Bill Walton has a little over 6.000 points in the NBA. Hill is about to get 16.000. Kevin Durant has already in his fourth year scored more points than Bill Walton has in his NBA career. Bill Walton is a 2-time all-star, Hill is a 7-time all-star. Bill Walton has been named to one all-NBA 1st and one all-NBA 2nd team, Hill has been named to one all-NBA 1st and four all-NBA 2nd teams. He has two, maybe three seasons in the NBA where he put up stats that are worthy of Hall of Fame, Hill has six or seven. He won a title with a deeper team than Grant ever had in Detroit in the weakest era of basketball.. I think like eight different teams won a title in the 70s. And back to back college titles? I wonder who else has that. Maybe GRANT HILL?!!! 70% of Bill Walton's Hall of Fame election is due to his college career. If that's the case, Grant deserves to be in as well.
