    Is Peja underrated? HOF?

    Never gets mentioned in the same conversation with other international greats. Do people discount the year he was in the MVP race? Does he make the Hall?

    He'll get in because he's an international player, and they ALL get in. I mean, he was certainly a better player than Drazen Petrovic, and a lot of other European guys that get in.

    That said, I don't like how heavily the international play is rated. Some guys, who weren't even good enough to play in the NBA make it ahead of guys like Kevin Johnson and Mitch Richmond... just doesn't seem right. And I know when guys like Marbury and McGrady and likely Agent Zero are done, their international careers aren't going to be worth $#!T for getting into the hall. They''ll just be viewed as players who went overseason after they couldn't make and NBA roster and people will discount what they do dduring their international careers.

    Everything is a self-portrait.

    I believe so. I think it was the 2003-2004 season. He had an incredible year.

    I think he will, he is 6th all time on 3 pointers made list, while shooting a career 40%. The names leading up to him seem to all be future HOFs being primarily 3 point shooters.

    Ray
    Miller
    Kidd
    Terry
    Billups
    Peja

    Don't see it. They need to revise the HOF to be only guys who were constantly allstars in the NBA year in and year out.

    Thanks MJ-Bulls for the picture.

    He will. He had a huge impact in international basketball. People, its Basketball Hall of Fame, NOT NBA hall of game.
