The greatest to ever play basketball in Western Massachusetts. Seems very proud and never forgot where she was from. Very humble. Congratulations!
Definitely a living legend
What an outstanding speech and a well-deserved honor. She was a tremendous athlete and competitor and seems like a really great person.
Wow, great speech Rebecca...and you are a hall of fame basketball announcer as well!
i started watching women's college basketball in 1994 when i saw a girl by the name of Rebecca Lobo play..i had NEVER seen a girl hoop like that! I've been a die hard crazy UConn fan ever since and watch and care about women's college ball much more than men's and i have Rebecca to thank for that introduction... #bleedblue
What a great speech!
I loved Lobo she could play
Wow--incredible speech from a fantastic human being.
Fantastic speech Rebecca!

We love you Rebecca. God bless you.

Lobo was a force. pure grit.
GREAT speech!
What a sweetheart.
I got a chance to met her... She is a very nice person and she deserve this!
Respect to Mrs. Lobo and all the other inductees. My question is, why Toni Kukoč is not in the hall of fame? These are his accolades: 3× NBA champion (1996-1998), NBA Sixth Man of the Year (1996), NBA All-Rookie Second Team (1994), 3× EuroLeague champion (1989-1991), 2× EuroBasket champion (1989, 1991), 4× Yugoslav League champion (1988-1991), 2× Yugoslav Cup winner (1990, 1991), Italian League champion (1992), Italian Cup winner (1993), 3× Croatian Sportsman of the Year (1989-1991), FIBA World Cup MVP (1990), 3× EuroLeague Final Four MVP (1990, 1991, 1993), 4× Mister Europa Player of the Year (1990-1992, 1996), 5× Euroscar Player of the Year (1990, 1991, 1994, 1996, 1998), FIBA EuroBasket MVP (1991), FIBA's 50 Greatest Players (1991), 50 Greatest EuroLeague Contributors (2008). Thank you for your considuration. Congratulation to all of this years inductees.
Ja Nisam so as Vlade Divac
Yes Vlade is a legend in his own right, but regarding Hall of fame i like Peja Stojaković better. Here are Peja's accolades: NBA champion (2011), 3× NBA All-Star (2002-2004), All-NBA Second Team (2004), 2× NBA 3-Point Shootout champion (2002, 2003), NBA three-point field goals leader (2004), FIBA EuroBasket MVP (2001), EuroLeague Top Scorer (1998), Greek League MVP (1998), 2x Greek All Star Game MVP (1997, 1998), 2× Mister Europa Player of the Year (2001, 2002), Euroscar Player of the Year (2001), Yugoslavian Most Valuable Young Player (1994), No. 16 retired by Sacramento Kings. So with all do respect to Mr. Divac in my humble opinion Peja would deserve it more. And on that note i think it's long overdo for Chicago Bulls to retire Dennis Rodman and Toni Kukoč jerseys.
It is unfair. Tony one of the best bball players. You deserve to be there hof
He is in the Hall of Fame Jordan inducted him.
I knew Rebecca Lobo would be inducted one day. And she was.
Watching Rebecca play was an amazing event at the time--tremendous. My high school did not have womens basketball ( Crafton High ). One of my classmates was very good,with any real coaching I felt she would have played college and mybe more. I love womens basketball and players as Rebecca to play, win championships and play pro.She and those following her the best!!!Yes a awesome speech- and a awesome presenter- coach !!!!!!!
Outstanding speech!!! Larry Legend!!!!!!! =)
5:58 He roasts the WNBA in Sports Illustrated, and goes on to marry Rebecca Lobo.
Incredibly classy lady.
She was a great player and play for a hall of frame coach at UConn
2:02 the ultimate bench warmer
What a classy lady!
The right player at just the right time for women’s basketball.
2:00 lol Dartmouth did prepare him as the BENCH warmer
4:39 The correct response to this is, "A man named James Naismith invented the game of basketball"
Beautiful speech! Rebecca was very emotional at the end. It’s great to see all the players Gino inspired not only on the basketball court but also in their personal lives.
Just a minuscule mistake in the speach it’s not “… because of you…” but “… thanks to you…”
Respectfully of course
Nice
One of my favorite atheletes of all time, male or female. I've seen some great athletes in the last 30 years since I've been paying attention to sports and she's for sure in the Top 10. Well deserved. Also, I've always found her attractive and have had a slight crush on her cause she's badass.
👏🏽❤👏🏽❤️👏🏽
wow
Came here since NBATV censored the cuss words hahahaha
She was so pretty and beautiful, one of the finest players in the WNBA.
Connecticut Royalty
7:19 dammmm HOF burn hahahahahaha
fine
How many games did she actually play in the WNBA???
She's in the HOF as a broadcaster not a player.
@@defer114 ok thanks for the info
No she's not. She's being inducted as a player.
Recognize that Candice Wiggins was right.
There needs to be a separate NBA Hall of Fame
What a speech...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Rebecca lobo may have been a good player, but she is a garbage pundit, and bad for the wnba. Either get her some media training, or don’t allow her on espn since she talks down to fans and other tv personalities alike, constantly contradicts herself, and is transparently one of the most hypocritical people in sports media
Not really sure why she made it into the Hall of Fame? I think there are too many average players in the Hall. Hall of Fame should be for the superior players. But that would probably knock 3/4's of them out. I know she had an outstanding college career but for college, if you're a good player, its easier to dominate because the competition isn't there like the men's college.
a lot of questionable men in the HOF.
If you don't know why she is in the HOF, you don't know anything about her or women's basketball.
She made it in as a broadcaster not a player. There are different sections of the HOF for players, coaches, referees, and contributors.
@@defer114 as a broadcaster? LOL. Would have been better as a player and don't deserve that either.
@@chipdayton1625 has to be true if you said it, smh
