In his 16-year NBA career, he played 938 games, started 703 games, averaged 32.7 minutes per game, averaged 19.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.9 blocks, shot 43.5% from the field, and shot 33.8% from three-point range, which is the data of Maddy's NBA career.
Winning 1 Fastest Improvement Award, 12 Player of the Week Award, 4 Player of the Month Award, 2 All-Team First Team, 3 Best Team Second Team, 2 Best Team Third Team, 2 Scoring Champions, and 7 All-Star Awards, this is Maddy's achievement in the NBA.
In 2017, Maddy and George McGinnis and others were inducted into the Hall of Fame, which caused some controversy, some people think that Maddy's achievements are not high, should not be inducted into the Hall of Fame, I personally think Maddy deserves to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, mcGinnis who was selected with him has only been selected for the Best Team once, the Best Team once, the Second Team, and the Hall of Fame 3 times, he can still be inducted into the Hall of Fame, in contrast, Maddy's achievements are still relatively high.
Not to mention that being inducted into the Hall of Fame is to see the contribution to the development of basketball, many people do not know how much money Maddy has invested in Africa, helping local schools, setting up basketball courts, helping local basketball careers, and allowing more children to change their fate through basketball.
But what's more embarrassing is that it's been 5 years since Maddy was inducted into the Hall of Fame, and no team has retired his jersey. Maddie played for the Raptors, Magic, Rockets, Knicks, Pistons and Hawks in his career before joining the Spurs for six games during the playoffs.
Maddy played three seasons with the Raptors, averaging 15.4 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.1 steals per game in his best season, when he wasn't the core of the team and didn't help the Raptors achieve anything, and the Raptors certainly wouldn't retire his jersey.
He's just a passer-by for the Knicks, Pistons, Hawks and Spurs, and those teams won't retire his jersey, and his peak is reserved for the Magic and Rockets, so why don't those two teams retire his jersey?
The Magic is a special team in the league, they have never retired any player's jersey, the team set up its own Hall of Fame, through the induction of the Hall of Fame to replace the retired jersey, Maddy was officially inducted into the Magic's Hall of Fame on March 21, 2018, becoming the fourth player in team history to be inducted into the Team Hall of Fame, the first three are O'Neal, Hardaway and Nick Anderson, although there is no retired jersey, but the Magic team affirmed Maddy's contribution to the team.
As for the Rockets, they don't want to retire Maddy's jersey. Maddy gave his best self to the Magic, and when he came to the Rockets, he was like Wang Xiao'er in the New Year, playing a year worse than a year, averaging from 25.7 points to 24.6 points per game, to 21.6 points, to 15.6 points, and then to 3.2 points, and no season of shooting more than 44%, the performance is not particularly good.
Maddy also did not lead the team to any achievements, for many years in a row of the first round, the only time to enter the second round when Maddy was unable to play due to injury, and later he also had a fight with the team, in the 2009-2010 season, he averaged only 7.7 minutes per game, played 6 games and was traded to the Knicks.
Maddy's biggest achievement on the Rockets was "35 seconds and 13 minutes", which was a great moment that made people boil with blood, but this was just a regular season victory for the team, not enough for the team to retire his jersey, if he had been playing for the Rockets until retirement, then the team would also retire his jersey, but he chose to leave in a falling out with the team, and the Rockets would certainly not retire his jersey.
It's an honor to be able to retire a jersey, but not being retired from a fan doesn't mean the player isn't great enough, it's a shame, but it's not a place to be questioned.
