All Time NBA Players Thread - No Jordan vs. Lebron Debate Allowed

Chauncey Billups - I think he's pretty over-appreciated. I think it's fine that he makes the HoF, but few players have 1 title doing more work for them than Chauncey's 2004 run.
Vince Carter - was must-see TV but didn't result in a lot of winning and the Toronto departure was an awful chapter. He also belongs in the HoF, of course.
Michael Cooper - one of the worst HoFers ever? Great defensive player. 1 DPOY, 8 all-defensive teams, and 5 titles...but he wasn't even a starter and only averaged 12, 4, and 5 per 36*. Also, I have avoided the details, but I hear the domestic violence with him was really bad.

In terms of player inductees, is this the worst class of HoFers ever?

*For reference, Draymond averages 11, 9, and 7, 1 fewer title, same defensive honors, but has 4 all-star appearances and 2x all-NBA honors, and we're (correctly) debating his HoF credentials. I assume he's adding all-defensive honors this year, too. Just seems like Cooper is one of those guys that will be mentioned when we talk about how low the bar is.
