Is the NBA Hall of Fame class of 2009 the greatest ever? |

Michael Jordan John Stockton David Robinson Jerry Sloan C. Vivian Stringer
Thousands of wins, thousands of points, thousands of assists from Stockton alone, thousands of rebounds.
I don't possibly see another class that comes close to the pedigree of this one.

800+ wins, took 3 different teams to the Final 4(2 with Rutgers). You have to include everyone to make your case but certainly one of the best ever if not the best class.

4. I didn't know who she was before yesterday |
|
I was aware of Rutgers basketball success in 2007 as well as the Imus incident but didn't realize she was the coach of that team. I did a little bit of research and came up with those facts. She has also had success in the International game as well.

3. It's got Jordan in it--that automatically makes it the greatest. |
|
There will never, ever be another player like Michael Jordan.

5. Any class that has Jordan in it is automatically the greatest ever... |
|
Only conceivable exception: a class that has Wilt in it.

6. The whole restuarant just stopped and listened to Jordan. |
|
Not a dry eye in the house as he was announced. A special moment, indeed.
