    being a hard worker per se is not to be respected. Kirby was a hard worker, but was not a great basketball player, he may have worked harder than others, but he was working on the wrong thing. He kept on working on how to make harder shots, instead of training in how to make smart shots. It's like praising a jerk off for jerking off a lot when he should be banging skinny blondes...

    I remember before that game 5 vs Pistons (they destroyed us in games 3 and 4), I said to a friend of mine (who happens to be a Pistons fan) that game 5 would be very close and that Horry would hit the game winner

    Cant believe it actually happened

    I'm not sure that Horry is the type to look back and think objectively about what makes a good coach. He's going to most likely pick the one that he had the most fun with. He was young, got lots of playing time, and won back to back championships with a laid back coach. Probably let Horry do as he pleased. I doubt he looked any deeper than this.

    I think Horry didnt like playing PF

    As you said he had his best years in Houston, and he could have been an All-Star one day if he kept playing SF

    He did play SF during his short stint with the Suns, but the club was such a mess and that offense was so bad anyway...

    And yes Rudy was laid back, and Phil was tough with him so he may be biased

    Of course very possible.
    But if he was dealing with Phil or Pop recently i might buy this theory more.
    He has had plenty of time to make fair judgment of all 3 coaches.

    Of course i think Pop is a better coach than Rudy he has adjusted with the times.
    He helped develop and mold Parker and Kiwi (Manu arguably was reigned in by Pop)
    But there is no need for excuses to be made he gave his opinion.
    Be curious what Kerr would say comparing Pop and phil ...he never played for Rudy T as far as I can recall.


    I think as you age you can appreciate someone who is "harder" on you then when you are in the moment of being coached that way.

    I don't disagree. And maybe I'm wrong, but Horry just doesn't strike me as the kind of player to give it too much thought. That at ude is also what contributed to him being the kind of player he was. I love Horry but I don't know how reliable he is in objectively dissecting each coach.

    but he did take the time to write this article. so he had to give it some thought.
    My guess is the editor decided to focus on that line because it would get more hits.
    Doubt horry cares much who the better coach was ...

    Ah...I just went back and saw the link to the full article. Thought he had just made some comments that were bulletpointed. In any event, I think you're right. He probably couldn't care les

    it's by definition.. Someone can't be great if he can't play the game the right way. And it's not like he was successful in his way of playing, i mean it's not a coincidence that he is the definition of bball inefficiency.

    As should just about anybody. He developed the inside out offense. No team had ever utilized the three like that before. Yeah, he had great players, but he maxed out their value. Jackson followed talent, and Pop was smart enough to follow Duncan's lead.

    That take is fine with me, just another thing stacked against Robinson in 95.
