Description

Jim is joined by NBA historian Keith Black Trudeau to break down the hall of fame candidacy of former NBA shooting guard Richard "Rip" Hamilton. First, Jim and Keith discuss Hamilton's elite ability to move without the ball, as well as his smooth mid-range game (10:10 ). Next, they cover his performance in the 2004 NBA Finals and Eastern Conference Finals, how he compares to Reggie Miller, and where he ranks among the 15 best shooting guards of the 2000s (20:30 ). Finally, Jim and Keith try to understand Hamilton's alarmingly poor advanced metrics (53:57 ), before making a final call on whether or not Hamilton deserves a place in the Basketball Hall of Fame (58:51 ).
