Michael Jordan

I can't believe they are just getting around to inducting Michael Jordan into the Hall of Fame!

So big that the ceremony has to be held at Springfield's symphony Hall that holds double what the Hall can hold!

Charles Barkley believes Jordan to be the best BB Player ever so it was expected.

When I think of BasketBall I always think of Micheal Jordan and Larry Byrd "duking" it out on the Celtic's floor. I usually rooted for Byrd with his beaky nose competing against Jordan and others.

Now I root for the Lakers, when I am rooting for BasketBall. Not often.

Nearly 60 Hall of Famers are expected to make the trip to Springfield for the induction.

    I am so happy to have ever seen Michael Jordan play on tv because no one will ever come close to his greatness. Its sad now looking back on how much i wish I would have watched more Bulls games when he played!

    They are just putting him in now because they usually wait about 5-7 years after a player retires. His comeback held back the Hall of Fame ceremony.

    Jordan was the best ever; he took the game to a new level; he deserves a hall of his own.

    Michael Jordan has done so much not only for basketball, but for sports in general. He has left a permanent mark on all athletics. I enjoyed the ceremony, and MJ gave a great speech. The guy is amazing, and I miss watching him on the court. Congrats to him and his family. It's a remarkable achievement that is well deserved.
