slate article slamming horry. they're eating crow now of course. I'd like to see a complete compilation of his playoff performances. the article makes a lot of a couple bad series he had, and belittles he 3pt %age--but 36% is not really bad, right, and what is it in big games? what settles it for me is that he's such a farce of a power forward--complete inability to drive to the basket. there were two drives in this last game and both times by the time he left the ground he was moving very rapidly away from the basket trying to throw the ball back to it, like from a speeding car going the other way. I think he made at least one of them though. but there was the big dunk of course. granted that was sweet. my enduring image of him is standing around midcourt away from everyone when the ball rolls loose, to his feet, playoffs v. Sac down by 2, and he chucks it like a chucker does, and boom they win. what a luck bag.

If anyone feels that Horry belongs in the Hall of Fame, you obviously need some more thinking on the great basketball players that are currently in there.

his game-winning threes where he doesn't rebound the ball in the last seconds and instead parks beyond the arc just in case someone else rebounds it sickens me to no end.

Hey, somebody's gonna have to shoot it, might as well be him near as myself, Sixers, Kings, and Pistons fans can attest.
