Robert Horry Also Needs Help Finding His Championship Rings
Kobe isn’t the only dude who needs help finding his championship rings. Following a videoconference with NBA greats Robert Horry, Dominique Wilkins and Bernard King about the most amazing moments of their careers, Horry admitted that he doesn’t know the exact whereabouts of his 7 championship rings.
“Honestly, I don’t know where they are right now!” Horry started, laughing. “I just moved, so I think that they’re in a box somewhere in my house. The movers weren’t supposed to touch it, but they did. I used to keep them in a jewelry box in my bathroom, but I think that they’re in the house somewhere.”
Though Horry spoke about the back breaking buzzer beater he hit against the Kings to even the 2002 Western Conference Finals 2-2 as his most “amazing” moment, he said that the 1994-95 ‘chip with the Rockets carries the greatest significance. If he could find his rings, that would be the one that he’d wear.
“We were a six-seed, but we did some remarkable things that year,” says Horry. “And in the Finals we beat America’s team. We called the Magic that because they were on TV just about every day.”
Memorable moments from Houston’s 4-0 sweep of Orlando can be found at NBA.com/Amazing. Horry had two monster shots during that playoff run – a jumper with 6.5 seconds left to beat the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals 94-93, and a game-winning three in Game 3 of the Finals to beat Orlando 106-103.

the playoffs in 2002 are non existant for me. when horry hit that shot, i pretty much decided immediately to blank everything else after that out. *shaking my head* damn lakers…
i would say its a wash since doug christie’s uppercut took the curl outta rick fox’s perm, but…no. its still not enough.

Shaq took the laker rings.He said he taking all his rings back from dudes who rode his coatails but switched up on him later on in the dynasty.Thats the reason Kobe couldnt find his rings at him and Bron house.

@ Rootsradical
Lol everyone acts like Stoudemire and Diaw were lost for the rest of the series.. If Phoenix were truly better they wouldve won 2 more games when those 2 came back.. it was only tied 2-2 when that shit happened..
Plus the Spurs own the Suns.. if it came down to it Timmay wouldve hit a 35 ft bankshot to win a at the end of game 7 lol thats how it is..

i’m not a huge suns fan but you have to admit that that shit cost them the series. spurs do own the suns because they’ve never lost to them in the playoffs but i truly believe that that was their year to do it. they used to be such a fun team to watch.

@rootsradical, fun team to watch doesnt mean they were winning jack…nash flopping and making horry look like the hulk signified the whole series. Like it was said, if the suns were soooo good or could stop anyone, they would of won the games once amare and diaw got back, instead they fell apart like always. Thats y horry has more rings than the whole suns team put together lol
