Webber deserves to be in for nothing else than that behind the back dunk on Barkley

T Mac deserved to be in just for what he did to the Spurs in that final 35 seconds or whatever it was. That is easily of the most amazing things I've ever seen a player do.

Like Bagels and others noted, everyone gets in the basketball hof. If you go by their current standards, and you sort of have to, he's a no brainer.

Reggie Miller's was better.

On the road at MSG during the playoffs. Please. Let me know when ESPN does a documentary on McGrady's regular season achievement.

This GIF should end this discussion.

I'm not arguing which is more memorable historically. I'm saying which is more impressive athletically. There's no comparison when it comes to the latter.

The only discussion that gif is going to be involved in is how it is a shitty gif that is blurry as fuck.

Shit no to T-Mac being in the HOF.

C-Web, yes.

Pretty impressive athletic feat to hit the threes the way he did, no? Why do you hate shooting specialists? Ray Allen could dunk on anyone when he first entered the league.

T-Mac hit a couple threes off of set plays during a timeout in a meaningless regular season game. Was it a great accomplishment? Sure. But it doesn't eclipse what Miller did in a playoff game.

No way. Being a helluva gun for a few years doesn't do it in my book.

I distinctly remember him monkey dunking McGrady in a playoff series between Milwaukee and Orlando.
