dude is a stat stuffer, as a result he doesn't put up the most impressive stats, but he's like a swiss army knife - doing it all..and most importantly he makes a noticeable impact on his team (unlike someone like say KLove, who puts up impressive numbers, but won't get you the wins you need to be a playoff contender)

accolades:
1x All star
2x NBA Champ
1x NBA Finals MVP
1x All Defensive first team
1x All Defensive second team
All rookie first team
NBA Rookie Challenge MVP
2x Gold medals (Olympics, FIBA World championship)


I think he's a prime example of having to look beyond the numbers to the intangibles in order to make this decision...what do the illustrious members of the JSP Basketball Subreddit think?

nulled my vote for objectivity.

No, not at all

Solid career role player, but let's not be ridiculous

Eh....ehhhhh....ehhhhhhhhh....bruh

"career role player" though

My man was an All-Star selection in his prime...and was good for like 20/5/5 a season.

He's not a #1 scorer, but he was absolutely more than just a "role" player lol. Very good passer (always averaged 5+ dimes a game in his prime), defender, rebounder, and could pretty much run the offense despite his inconstancy with jump shooting.


Enough for the HOF? Unlikely, but still. The last few years he has settled into a much smaller role in order to win. He could be somewhere else getting 30 min a night putting up some nice numbers.

Great player, even better role player. But he didn't put up HoF #s for his career. He shouldn't make it

He was above average on a bad sixers team(inflated stats)

And a solid role player on a championship warriors team.

He made the All-Star team with the Sixers when they had one of the best records in the East the first half of that season....

Wait no, Iggy was never seen as a top 10 player while playing for a bad team
