Steve Kerr will be a Hall of Fame lock…but that is as a Coach.

…and he should be.

As a Head Coach, Kerr captained the Golden State Warriors to four NBA Championships, was a two-time Coach of the Year, and was named to the top 15 NBA Coaches in NBA History.  That places him in Hall of Fame air, but this list is about what you do as a player, and nobody understood his role better than Steve Kerr.

Kerr might be one of the greatest sharpshooters behind the arc of all time, and as of this writing, he holds the highest 3-point Field Goal Percentage ever, and in the right system, he was electric.  Luckily for Kerr, he found that often, aiding Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls win their second three-peat and the San Antonio Spurs capture their first two titles.  

Kerr’s high-end court vision, selfishness, and leadership made Kerr one of the most valuable teammates of the 1990s and early 2000s, and even though he was no superstar, he knew better than anyone how to work with them.

Possibly the most intriguing possibility for the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2018 is “Agent Zero”, Gilbert Arenas. For a three year stretch, Arenas was an All Star and averaged over 25 Points per Game with a PER over 20 in those three seasons. He was lights out behind the arc and earned three post season All-NBA nods (one Second Team and two Third Teams) and was the man in Washington. Sadly after a few controversial moments and a torn MCL, Arenas may have performed his way out of a Hall of Fame spot. We are very curious to see what support he receives for Springfield.
