Michael Cooper made it to the Hall Of Fame this year.
Never an allstar, but he was an integral part of the Lakers winning 5 championships.
He made the all-defensive team 8 straight years and was a 1 time DPOY
1 time Slam Dunk Contest winner as well as a 1 time 3pt Contest winner
Played for the Lakers for 12 years, no other NBA teams. Only started 94 out of regular season 873 games. Played in 168 playoff games
Basketball Reference still shows him having a 0.9% chance of making it to the Hall Of Fame, but he made it in
Cooper wasn’t 1st Ballot, but he made it in eventually.
Draymond is definitely Hall of fame, but is He 1st ballot?
