Former 76ers Guard Questions Paul George’s Hall of Fame Case<\/a> originally appeared on Athlon Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There’s no question that Paul George is one of the best players in the NBA. Throughout his playing career, he has collected awards that serve as evidence of his brilliance. When it’s all said and done, George has the case to be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

However, not everyone views his career in that manner. A former guard for the Philadelphia 76ers, Patrick Beverley, weighed in on the talk about George’s basketball immortalization. In the recent episode of his show, “The Pat Bev Podcast,” the defensive point guard questioned the All-Star’s case.<\/p>\n

Initially, he was talking to his guest, former NBA player Stephen Jackson, about the Hall of Fame. Beverley used George as an example, but took a slight shot at the forward.<\/p>\n

Beverley was ranting about Jackson not being in the Hall of Fame. He then argued that if George has the qualifications, the current co-host of the show “All The Smoke” should be included in the Hall.<\/p>\n

“People say Paul George right,” Beverley said. “You hear a lot of people say yes he is. And I’m looking at it like well if he’s a Hall of Famer, [Stephen Jackson] for sure a Hall of Famer. Lou Will is for sure a Hall of Famer. I’m trying to see like what’s the stipulations.”<\/p>\n

Although Jackson and Lou Williams were both amazing players, they weren’t stars like George. However, a championship is what’s missing from the Sixers star’s list of accolades. Still, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have a case to be in the Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

The former Fresno State star is a\u00a0nine-time All-Star<\/a>, a six-time All-NBA, a four-time All-Defensive player and the 2013 Most Improved Player.<\/p>\n
