The 2009 NBA Hall of Fame Class was announced yesterday, and to no surprise, the greatest player of all time, Michael Jordan, was inducted on the first ballot. I believe Jordan should’ve been inducted after he pushed off Byron Scott in the 1998 NBA Finals. But here it is, 11 years later, and Jordan joined John Stockton, David Robinson, Utah Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan and Rutgers womens head coach C.Vivan Stringer. During the press conference, Jordan joked with the press that he was dreading this day in a way.
“This is not fun for me,” he said. “I don’t like being up here for the Hall of Fame because at that time your basketball career is completely over, the way I look at it. I would hope this day was three more years (away) or actually when I’m dead and gone.
I am not one to think that Jordan could dominate today, but could he make any team’s 12 man roster?
