From the Bontemps write-up: "the future Hall of Famer admitted it has been 'very hard' dealing with watching some of the most important moments of games from the sidelines." Is this something we're just saying now, that Klay is a future Hall of Famer? He's got fewer win shares than Steve Francis.
I bumped on that, too. Five, six years ago I would have said he's on pace to HoF. After the recent injuries, it definitely does give questions.
But going off Basketball References' Hall of Fame Probability, he's got a 70% chance to make it in, slotting right above Hall of Famer Mitch Redmond by their model. Between 4 rings, 2 third team all NBAs, and 5 all star games, he probably does make it - especially when you remember the basketball hall is a little more "open" than NFL or MLB.
Is Trae Young the worst defensive player ever among all those who are also all-star level talents?
Man, you're right, Tom. Such grace by Klay in that clip.

Yeah, it's not like he can't or shouldn't get in, it just feels far less than automatic.
