Question

Will Alonzo Mourning be in the Hall of Fame?What about Dennis Rodman?

Answer 1

Dennis Rodman deserves to be but not Alonzo Mourning.

Answer 2

Dennis Rodman is just unbelievable, he could even defend a prime Shaq single handed. He should be in the HOF.

Answer 3

there's no doubt mourning's jersey would be retired in the miami arena, but his HOF chances are no that high. although he did started out strong in his NBA career, his physical condition, especially in the middle part of his career, greatly affects his HOF chances. what you should appreciate about this guy is that he was able to come back strong after undergoing kidney transplant. its not an easy situation to come out of, but he overcame it successfully. although he no longer was considered as an all star player in the league, he was still able to play the defensive end just as how he played it before he underwent the transplant. hey, bill walton made it to the HOF with an injured prone career, i think zo should too.

"Heat gain and maintain the second-best record in the NBA's Eastern conference during the 2005-06 season; his intensity had earned him the title "The Ultimate Warrior" amongst Miami Heat fans. Mourning finished the regular season ranking third in blocked shots at 2.66 per game, despite only playing 20 minutes per contest."

averaging 2.66 bpg in just 20 minutes is just amazing for a guy who was less than 100% healthy. that just tells us how strong this guy is.

on the other hand, the worm's statistics are monster and are really of an HOF level.

Career awards and accomplishments

    * 6 time NBA Finalist (1988 & 1989 & 1990 (Detroit), 1996–98 (Chicago))

    * 5 time NBA Champion (1989 & 1990 (Detroit), 1996–98 (Chicago))

    * All-NBA Third Team (1992, 1995)

    * NBA All-Star Team (1990, 1992)

    * NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award (1990, 1991)

    * NBA All-Defensive First Team (1989–93, 1995, 1996)

    * NBA All-Defensive Second Team (1994)

    * NBA Top Rebounds Per Game (1992–98)

    * NBA Top Rebound Rate (1991–98)

    * NBA Top Total Rebounds (1992–94, 1998)

    * NBA Top Offensive Rebounds (1991–94, 1996, 1997)

    * NBA Top Defensive Rebounds (1992, 1994, 1998)

    * NBA Top Field Goal Percentage (1989)

having this achievement in your career should automatically enlist you on the HOF list of the NBA. BUT what would likely doubt his HOF listing is his attitude. there's no doubt about his tenacity and basketball talent, but the attitude inside and outside the court, i think, are also the basis for granting the player a HOF status.

overall i'd say, in my own opinion, both these guys should be in the HOF. they played a huge part in the NBA's success. that should be enough reason why they should be in the HOF.

Answer 4

both should be. Big Zo was awsome

Answer 5

The worm, hands down should be in.

Answer 6

alfonzo mourning should but not dennis rodman. Dennis rodman has no skill at all. He just tall grabs rebounds and passes it to michael. I think he drunk too. Do u see how he changes his hairdo after every game.... I read in an article that they only brough rodman to distract other players. After rodman retired he was seen one day in the streets wearin ga bride's gown.....
