After a player retires, it can be said that he can enter the Hall of Fame. After all, the Hall of Fame is the highest hall of honor in the NBA. So who have players in the NBA have lowered the threshold for the Hall of Fame? After all, it may be that there are only these four people. Let’s see who they are?

Carter

Carter can be said to be an evergreen player in the NBA. After all, he has played in the NBA for 22 seasons, but the only regret is that he has no hardcore honors, no regular season MVP, no scoring champion, no championship, and the strongest honor is the best second team and the best third team. Carter's only highlight is the 2000 Slam Dunk Contest, which is unforgettable to many fans. It can be said to be like a textbook. Carter is also the only player who has experienced four years of 90,00, 10 and 20. He has played a total of 1,541 games in his career and ranked third in history, with a total score of 27,321 in history. It is indeed a bit undesirable for Carter to be selected into the Hall of Fame by relying solely on his dunk influence and career length.

McDie was selected as the All-Star in his career, 6 best teams, and his most hardcore personal honor is the scoring champion. He has never been in the first round of the playoffs in leading the team. He created a miracle of 35.13 seconds and 18,381 points, 5,276 rebounds, and 4,161 assists in his career. Judging from his personal honors and team-leading results, it is a bit far-fetched for McGrady to enter the Hall of Fame.

Grant Hill

Grant Hill was selected as the All-Star 7 times in his career and was selected as the Best Second Team 4 times. He destroyed his peak period due to injury. He had no MVP in his career. He won the All-Star King as a rookie and was a relatively modest player. Although affected by his injuries, he also won three sports ethics awards after transforming from a main player to a role player. It can be said that Grant Hill has no championship, no MVP, and has not fulfilled his talents. It is a bit far-fetched to be admitted to the Hall of Fame.

Reggie Miller

Reggie Miller has been playing for the Pacers for 18 years of career. He is the Pacers' record holder of scoring, assists, steals, three-pointers, etc., and 2,560 three-pointers ranked third in history. Miller is also a key ball master. He reversed the Bulls 29 points in a single game in the 1998 Eastern Conference Finals, which is the most classic reversal event in the NBA. Personal honors in his career, 5 times selected as All-Stars and 3 times Best Three Teams. The only regret is that there is no hardcore honor, no championship, and no MVP. It is also far-fetched to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Of course, the above are some of my personal opinions. In fact, players who can be selected for the Hall of Fame have their own shining points, and the above four are all witnesses of our youth.
