The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other.  The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football and Basketball Lists.

At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the sixth ten of the 2024 Basketball List, which you can comment on and vote on:

The new 51 to 60:

51. Don Ohl
52. Otis Birdsong
53. Bill Bridges
54. Jeff Hornacek
55. Paul Seymour
56. Glenn Robinson
57. Fred Brown
58. Carlos Boozer
59. Terry Dischinger
60. Marcus Camby

Rankings are impacted annually based on your comments and votes.

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football and basketball lists.

Prior to his arrival to New Jersey Otis Birdsong went to three All-Star Games for the Kansas City Kings, which means that a lot of people may not have noticed!  Birdsong was traded to the Nets where he was often injured but played there for seven years.  When he was playing Birdsong was able to show off his strong shooting skills and he had a 20.6 Point per Game season in 1984-85 but the year before he was named to his fourth All-Star Game and the only one as a Net when he averaged 19.8 Points per Game.  His overall PPG for New Jersey was a strong 15.9.

One of the best shooters ever, Otis Birdsong could flat out score. A great scorer at the University of Houston, Birdsong became one of the great shooting guards in the NBA in the early 1980’s with both the Kings and the Nets averaging 18 points a game for his career.  Being a four-time All-Star helps his case but low career totals (just over 12,000 points) hurts.
