Without a doubt he does. Dude was one of the best (if not THE best) pure shooters to ever play the game.

This.

#2 on the all-time best 3pt shooter list? Yeah, he deserves to be in.

Yes. No question.

He and Karl Malone probably are the biggest victims of "My prime is during the Jordan years".

I was a little surprised that "The Worm" got in given his offensive limitations. Interestingly enough, longtime Bulls' assistant John Bach didn't make the cut for this year's class.

That's a pretty long list there.

Also, Reggie's miraculous 8 points in 9 seconds to absolutely crush Spike Lee and the Knicks is one of my top five favorite sports moments. If being "clutch" truly does exist, Reggie was it. Not many other guys in their prime I'd rather have taking a final shot for my team than him.

Probably one of the best clutch shooters of all time. Of course he's in.

That's actually one of my favorite sports moments, too, OKC, and Reggie Miller did that in the "World's Most Famous Arena", New York's Madison Square Garden, site of many countless sports moments over the years and in a playoff game.

No. They both belong in the Hall but Rodman is one of the best rebounders ever and one of the best and most versatile defensive players ever.

Shirley you don't simply rely on numbers to determine a player's worth, do you? Did you watch him play?

He did more than just hit clutch shots. I'm just saying the guy was money in the final seconds of games. His career 3 point numbers are also something to consider. He also played at a high level for a very long time. He's a HOF'er.

I don't see how a guy like Rodman could be in ahead of pemium scorers like Aguirre or Alex English. That may be Miller's problem- there are a bunch of scorers with careers reasonably similar to his.

Are you kidding me? Who was helping you win a title more, Alex English or Dennis Rodman? It's not close really. You're vastly overemphasizing scoring vs defense.

Brad Daugherty and Shawn Kemp are angry with you.

This.

I always liked the "If you even have to hesitate, the answer is no" criteria when it comes to if a player should be a HOFer. With Reggie Miller there should be no hesitation. He was a HOF player.
