I was actually looking for my 1st ever draft pick, Tanner Houbregs, so I could try and revive his career with the Hawks.  After I couldn't find him, I found out he retired already, I couldn't believe he left so early.  Yao retiring reminded me of him because I thought he would battle Yao for me when Yao was with the Raptors, but he turned out to be a disappointment.

Big thanks to Elton Brand from the Clippers organization! He made our team a title contender for years and years. And he brought the title to Los Angeles!
He should be in the hall of fame.

Wasnt HOF adjusted so it accepts players with lower stats then Yao ? If not, i guess just Yao will be HOF for a long time. :S

you get HOF points for certain achievements, like awards and all star weekend participation.
guess Dirk simply didn't have enough points ... but then again, those guys from the ORIGINAL league file should get bonus points for the pre-SSBA seasons.

I can't see anyone but Pettit making it in the near future ... even Emeka doesn't qualify !

Yes i know that, thats why ive asked if bods or hawks changed the file so it puts players with less points and achievements in HOF.
