If he stayed healthier for about 3 more years I would say yes
He won overseas, he has a bronze medal, and he has a medal from a fiba championship
Also came from high school
But he doesn’t even have 16k points and if he had around 20000 I would vote him in not first ballot

Nope
I was gonna compare him to jermaine O’Neal but JO’s first few seasons killed him because he only has an average of 13 ppg lol
I was shocked also when I found out Ben wallace averaged 5.7 ppg for his career
You know that dude wasn't getting any buckets. I was pissed when the bulls signed his ass
He was a legit superstar (even dominated Tim Duncan averaging 37 PPG in the WCF) was one of if not the best player at his position during his prime. Besides that there are a bunch of worst players in the Hall
Superstar? Ehhh MAYBE but if he was considered one it was for 2 years
PF was shallow during his prime 2006-2010
Yao in the hall so I feel you
Bad he played until 2014 at a high level I would say yes
You didn’t think he was a superstar? Interesting, first time ever hearing someone saying he wasn’t.
Duncan
Dirk
KG
Webber
Sheed
Abdul-Rahim
O’Neal
Walker
Martin
Brand
Off the top
I don’t have the time to cross reference everything but from 2006-2010 how many of these guys were top 25 players?
Also superstar is reserved for top 5 maybe top 10 players
Amare was Top 10?
You talking specifically those years? Ok. I just listed PF’s who were up there at various points of Amare’s career.
Dirk (top 20)
Duncan (top 20)
KG (top 20)
Gasol (top 20)
Bosh (top 20)
West
Randolph
Brand
Boozer
Aldridge
J Smith
Martin
Love
Sheed
You said his prime so that’s why I used those years...
Rasheed? Not good
Love didn’t start I think his first two years
Kenyon Martin? Role player
Josh smith? Decent
Aldridge I’ll give you that
Boozer I’ll give you that
Brand I’ll partly give you that because he was hurt from 2008 on
Randolph I’ll give you that
David west I’ll give you that
Out of the guys I said I’ll give you that only one was considered an actual star in Aldridge
But okay not as shallow as I made it seem
But you’re telling me out of all those names amare is a superstar? Gasol and bosh wasn’t even considered one
Yes he was putting up numbers comparable to some of the best players of that era (06-10)
Bosh was considered a superstar around 07/08. I’ll give you Pau but he was still a very good player.
Chris Bosh was never considered a superstar in Toronto
Just a soft Star
But iight you got it
Maybe we have diff standards for superstars and stars
Some dude on twitter called Ben Wallace a superstar and I took his head off
I read that in Lonzo’s voice.
When you want your thread to pop call beta
But amare was super nice just not HOF nice because he doesn’t have the accolades nor the longevity
