Here is the criteria for having a chance of getting in the Hall.
from wikipedia
Because the Hall – in contrast to the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the Baseball Hall of Fame – honors not only American professionals but also international professionals and American and international amateurs, it employs four screening committees to identify prospective nominees: one each for American candidates, female candidates, international candidates, and veterans candidates (players, coaches, or referees who have been retired at least 35 years prior to their being nominated).
Individuals who receive at least five votes from a seven-member screening committee in a given year advance to an Honors Committee, composed of 12 members who vote on each candidate and rotating groups of 12 specialists (one group for female candidates, one group for international candidates, and one group for American and veterans candidates); any individual receiving at least 18 affirmative votes (75 per cent of all votes cast) from the Honors Committee is approved for induction into the Hall of Fame. Advancement to the Honors Committee is generally pro format, although the Hall's Board of Trustees may remove any candidate who "has damaged the integrity of the game of basketball" [1] from consideration.
To be considered for induction by a screening committee, a player must be fully retired from play for at least five years, while a coach or referee must be fully retired for at least five years or have been active full time in his/her respective craft on the professional, collegiate, or high school level for at least 25 years. No temporal criteria is enforced for the election of contributors, who must have made a "significant contribution to the game of basketball".
