Shareef Abdur-Rahim with Neil Paine

Jim is joined by sportswriter Neil Paine to break down the hall of fame candidacy of former NBA forward Shareef Abdur-Rahim. First, Jim and Neil cover the the absolutely stacked 1996 NBA Draft Class (8:53). Next, they discuss the 50 points Shareef dropped on Ben Wallace in 2001, his elite scoring ability, and where he ranks among the best forwards of the late 1990s/early 2000s (15:20). Finally, Neil and Jim both draft their all-time teams made up exclusively 1X all-stars (49:40), before making a final call on whether or not Abdur-Rahim deserves a place in the Basketball Hall of Fame (63:01).
