if players were inducted into the hall of fame merely because of their marketing and influence on basketball... Yao should be in there straight away. Full stop!

But then LeBron would have been in before he finished high school.

So true man... Yao sorta did reintroduce Asia to basketball... and kind of to the world... but MJ will always be the greatest marketing tool... alongside Tiger Woods... and yuck- David Beckham!

He's been a solid centre for more than a decade and he's a great example of a European player finding a lot of success in the NBA. But I'd say that he hasn't had quite enough success; he hasn't been the most valuable player on some of the more successful teams he's been on. So I'd have to say no.

As far as Petrovic is concerned, the standard is a little different. He was shaping up to be a really significant player in the NBA. Also, I'm pretty sure he had a longer and more distinguished career in Europe than Vlade, but I could be mistaken.

Petrovic scored 100 points four times in Europe... I believe
