Message: [QUOTE="Travelman6, post: 5328608, member: 7597"] That's not at all what I said. He needed to have at least 5 more years at the same level as the height of the Chicago years and bring a team deep at least once or twice. But honestly I don't care so much that I'd be willing to get into any disagreement so I'll bow out 😉. AIs take: [HEADING=2][B]Verdict[/B][/HEADING] If Gordon had [B]5 extra prime years[/B], he’d likely finish with [B]20k points, top-20 in threes, and a 15+ year run of scoring excellence[/B]. That résumé would almost certainly get him into the Hall of Fame, even if he never made an All-Star team — the raw numbers would be too strong to ignore. But — his narrative would still be “elite scorer, weak elsewhere.” He’d be a [B]Mitch Richmond–lite Hall of Famer[/B]: not a transcendent player, but the numbers plus longevity would push him over the line.
