Besides Duncan, Gregg Popovich might have the best shot. Robert Horry has an outside chance due to all his bling. Other than that, I don't see any other current Spur making the Hall of Fame.

Lock: Duncan
Very Likely: Popovich (excellent win percentage plus came all the way from div III)
Outside chance: Horry (not a great player but never missed the playoffs in his career, 7 rings and made some unforgettable shots in the playoffs.)
Parker-Ginobili (They may make it via some "international player" backdoor, otherwise there are 5 or 6 point guards with better stats than parker, right now in the nba.

If the hall of fame values championships Robert Horry will have 7 NBA championships after this season. In terms of individual statistics he might be a stretch, but he has always been a role player who is clutch under pressure. You could make the case without him some of his teams wouldnt have won or even made it to the Finals.

If their careers ended this year.
I believe the first would have to be Gregg Popovich, the great mind to keep the dynasty going.
I would hope Robert Horry would make it for all his amazing plays and championship runs. If he doesn't make it he for sure will go down as one of the best not in the hall.
Bruce Bowen, one of the greatest defenders of all time.
After progression in their career:
I would hope for Tony Parker to make the hall. Manu I doubt but I can see him making it if he has a stellar career.
Honourable Mention:
Brent Barry and Michael Finley are great players who have contributed to many teams but I doubt they will make it.

Other than Tim Duncan, the only other Spur that will be going to the Hall of Fame is Greg Popovich... i don't see anyone else realistically making the cut... sorry...

They all should be since the Spurs rock!!!! If I had to narrow it down my 2 top choices would be Manu Ginobli and Tony Parker.

Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.
Possibly Michael Finley (from his Mavs days), and Bruce Bowen for his defense.

Either bruce bowen or tony parker. I would put my vote on bruce bowen as one of the best defenders in the league. I know people call him dirty. But i believe they just get emotional and use the simple common mistakes he make by accident to pin him down. Bowen deserves some sort of recognition.

Parker will eventually, I really hope Robert Horry will. This guy has made more clutch baskets, its unreal. He might not have the big numbers, but he is Mr. Clutch and that counts BIG TIME. I doubt Manu will though.
