2018 Dino Radja
2018 Charlie Scott
2019 Paul Westphal
2019 Sidney Moncrief
2019 Bobby Jones
2019 Vlade Divac
2019 Carl Braun
2019 Charles Cooper

Now...I decided to take a look at how many hall of fame players from 1980-1999 I would remove.

1982 Frank Ramsey
1983 Bill Bradley
1989 KC Jones

It seems like in 2010 someone decided that they would open the doors to players that formerly could not make it. I feel bad about guys like Kareem, Bill Russell, Jordan, Bird, Magic etc who were enshrined into something special only to see it watered down.
Some of these guys are in as International players and a bunch got in as veterans.

It seems to me that many people are confused with the system and how it works.
