Five (more) questions with seven-time NBA champion Robert Horry (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=347):

Q: I think you're the first One-On-One subject we've interviewed twice in one season, but this is the time of year when out-of-work vets are chased hard by contending teams, so we wanted to check in again to see whether you've given any more thought to playing this season.

A: No one has called. And to be honest, I have not been out there looking.

Q: I'm asking because I've heard and read a few things lately suggesting that you were getting the itch to come back. Is that true?

A: I always wanted to play [this season]. Just no one wanted me ... or should I say no one I would have wanted to play for.

Q: The Cavs haven't called you?

A: Have not talked to Cleveland.

Q: When we spoke around Thanksgiving, you said you doubted that we'd see you on the floor this season. You still see it as doubtful?

A: Don't know if I want to play this late [in this season]. A part of me feels it's not right to enjoy the hard work a team has put in to position itself for the playoffs. But [maybe I] would do it if I knew someone on the team.

Q: There were some suggestions in the media recently that the Spurs might try to sign you to a deal just to add you into a trade like Dallas did last season with Keith Van Horn (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=869). Did the Spurs ever call you about that?

A: I wish. But no.

Though not in the form of a thread title it was discussed in the above link and was the fifth entry by urunobili. He linked the article you atarted a thread on.

I wonder what's left in his tank? Last year I thought he was done but did contribute in a couple of games, particularly the 7th one in NO to help us get the series V.

If the alternative is Mikki Moore...

Still, he looked absolutely washed up by the WCF last season. He did help out in Game 7 of the Hornets series. They do need a 5th big so I wouldn't rule it out.
