Jim is joined by Neil Paine, acting sports editor at FiveThirtyEight, to break down the hall of fame candidacy of former NBA shooting guard, Eddie Jones. Jim and Neil first discuss Eddie's quick rise and fall in the Los Angeles Lakers organization before he was shipped to the Charlotte Hornets to make way for a rising shooting guard named Kobe Bryant (4:58). Then, they cover Eddie's performance in the 1998 playoffs, compare him to Manu Ginóbili, and discuss who was the actual better NBA player between Jones and Mitch Richmond (17:24). Finally, they break down Eddie's superior advanced statistics and explain what it all actually means (47:28), before reaching a final verdict on whether or not Eddie belongs in the HOF (1:08:54).
