Over on ESPN, JA Adande makes Horry’s case for the HOF. I like Adande a lot, but I don’t think Horry even remotely deserves the hall. I don’t care how many rings the guy has you don’t go to the hall of fame averaging 7 and 5.

Dude, shut up, like anyone cares what he wants to be called.

Bob Horry sounds much funnier than Rob Horry, and Big Shot Bob has a better ring to it. So Bob Horry it is.

Robert Horry has stated in several interviews that he goes by “Rob”, not “Bob”. His moniker, perhaps obsolete by now, is “Big Shot Rob”, not “Big Shot Bob”. While some of us may not be fans of Horry (including I), his names should be listed accurately in the press.

@ post 24

Lebron?
You didn’t happen to catch him missin jumpshot after jumpshot in the playoffs?

As for Tim, he’s the best big, but because of his weakness at free throw shooting, the best has to be obe.
No weaknesses = the best

Spurs are done for this year; they do need a bit of an injection of youth for next year to remain up with the big dogs.

Pop in all seriousness should be playing Matt Bonner in spots this series. He may not be all that athletic, but big red is a very good, smart ballplayer who can really nail the 3. He also has size. Look for him to perhaps make a guest appearance in the next game if Horry sucks again.

By the way, how bummed is Damon Stoudamire relegated to wearing a suit to almost every game?

I’d say Lebron is the best player in the game, but being the best isn’t the same as having the biggest impact on team wins. Ultimately, as a winner Duncan is #1 in the league, and that’s in large part because he is this era’s dominant centre (with apologies to Shaq).

Love Horry for all the huge shots he hit for the Lakers, but just like Barkley said: “It’s over”

Who knows? maybe he has another year left in him. Right now his slump might have to do with confidence more than anything else, perhaps that decreases with age as well.

Corey Maggette doesn’t have a consistent shot. I get to watch him play a fair amount since Clippers games are always on, and I for one would not want him on my team. He’s injury prone, and needs the ball in his hands to play well. When you got Parker and Ginobili handling the ball most of the time, he’s not gonna be able to play his game.

With the ball movement and spacing the Spurs have, wouldn’t it be better to get a SF who can shoot the lights out? Like Mike Miller or someone of that ilk.

And dude is from Duke, after all.
