I'll go with whatever/whomever Bill James recommends. Maybe some more guys from the 1800s. And the pioneers of Japanese ball.
The baseball hall of fame is a ridiculous waste of time. It has always been nothing more than a masturbatorium and shill for some grossly overpriced tourist-trap town. Check out Canton and/or Springfield-- a much more satisfying experience.

None of the other guys you've nominated. Maybe Louie Dampier if we want to honor the ABA (which we do.)
Dennis Rodman is one of the handful of greatest players to ever walk on the court. And I am not some hip-hopping MTV-watching kid bedazzled by his marketing campaign. I grew up in the 60s and 70s. My heroes were Oscar Robertson, Jerry Lucas, Bill Walton, and Rick Barry. Offensive rebounding is the most important and most unrecognized element of winning basketball. Next to perhaps Moses Malone and Lucas, both of whom enjoyed major size advantages, Rodman was THE greatest offensive rebounder in history, bar none. The single most proficient and prolific practitioner, inch for inch, of the most vital skill in the game. PLUS a guy who was one the greatest defenders of his time AND won ring after ring after ring. There could be no greater miscarriage of basketball justice than if this guy doesn't go in, and the hoops gods WILL take their retribution. Seriously.

while you give laimbeer 9 percent chance. Rodman does not have the statistics needed to get in. He was a one deminsional player as he got older. He only cared about rebounds. Not saying he has no chance of getting in but no way should he get in before Laimbeer. I hear he is tring to get back in the Nba. If he gets over 10,000 points then I think he should get in. Laimbeer has over 10,000 points and 10,000 rebounds. No way is rodman getting in.

Dennis has 5 rings earned in 10 years. That one dimensional player was essential to those championships!

I think he will be in the hall though soon. I saw Charles Barkley making comments on his behalf on TNT. So, although he did not get in hall of fame as soon as he became eligible is sad, but I think he knows he is getting in. His statistics speak for themselves. I heard someone compare Art Monk to AQdrian Dantley. They said Art Monk is the Adrian Dantley of the NFL hall of fame.

He has more than 10,000 points and 10,000 rebounds. He was started on 2 Nba championship Teams. His statistics are enough to get him in. What hurts him is the fact that he was the dirtiest basketball player I have ever seen.
