[NBA]Is Horry good?


Recommended Posts

Yes , I think Horry is good . He has played for numerous teams and has won numerous championship rings , he has also made almost all the big shots for almost all the big games . He is getting old but he still is a big influence on teams . Well it doesn't matter if you don't start in a game it just matters how you play . Just like Ben Gordon on the Bulls he's the sixth man .

i think it's more of a tough question...but damn, you can't deny 6 rings.

what were horry's numbers like in the regular season? because to get the chance for the big shot, you have to get there first. you need a team who's good enough to get to the playoffs without horry...

if he was on my team, i'd expect a more consistent output. i guess horry is the equivalent of a good place kicker on an nfl team...

I would love to have him on my team if I had someone who could demand double-teams and was a dominant NBA post player (Tim Duncan, Shaq, Amare Stoudemire). If I had a team like the Bulls, who has very athletic players but is more of a perimeter-oriented team then I don't think he would fit.

Horry is a great role-player but he needs great players around him to make him great; he and Rick Fox are alot alike, although Horry is a much better defender. He could never be a go-to guy, though, or dependable for an entire season. But, he is a quality person on and off the court, is a winner, and has veteran smarts and experience. I think he'll be a coach one day.

Man, don't ever compare him to Rick Fox. Fox is one of the dirtiest and ugliest former basketball players out there. When you compare Will Smith to something I crapped out this morning, that is just not cool.

Of course he needs great players around him, that is what makes him a role player. I don't think there is any other player that I would have coming off the bench than Horry.

Hey, I hate Rick Fox probably more than you do. That said, offensively they have the same type of game: hang out around the perimeter, wait for the double-team on the post, get open for a 3. Horry does have way better defensive skills, which is where the comparisons end. But, that is why I compared them.

    • I found that stability back then was really down to the motherboard manufacturer. Back then i stuck with Microstar motherboards and VIA chipsets as they were ultra reliable. Most stuff was done with jumpers and left little room for user created problems 👍
    • Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.
