OT: Hall of Pretty Good

[UCLJ0211]

Saw this on Instagram and it made me think of what other players were good or very good in the NBA, but probably not Hall of Fame worthy? Figured I would pose the question to the BY. Guys like Rip, Shawn Kemp, Joe Johnson and Amare Stoudemire came to mind for me.

Not even sure Rashard Lewis deserves to be in the Hall of Pretty Good.

Guys that I always think of: Kevin Johnson, Deron Williams, Jermaine O’Neal.

Yes it is. I have lost my interest in baseball. I’m excited to watch Giant’s football until week 4 when the season is over, but it’s down to UCMBB for me pretty much now. And golf at times.

I get it. Some of these off topics are hysterical. Baseball is great once the games actually mean something.

Billy Currington is in the Hall of Pretty Good at Drinking Beer.

UConn's most "pretty good" player is a fun topic, honestly. Can't be someone that got into the Huskies of Honor. We can debate if people that earned All-Conference honors but aren't in the HoH are too good or the right level. The Rashard Lewis example (2x All-Star, 0x All-NBA) is our guide. Nick Van Exel is in, Danny Graner is in, Kyle Korver is in, Jamaal Tinsley and Mehmet Okur didn't make the cut. The line seems to require some accolades, you can't just be a journeyman.

Is Christian Vital too good (1st Team All-Conference, but it was in a mediocre AAC)? Is Isaiah Whaley good enough? Tyrese Martin (all-conference tournament but never all-conference) seems to be right in the zone.
