it should be something similar to what prince wore in the batdance video, except in thirds.
What jersey will he wear?

HOF?
He'll probably wear a suit.
if horry goes to the hall, it loses what credibility it had left.
Horry will not be a part of the Hall, although I'm not saying he shouldn't... He doesn't have the stats or the awards. You need to either be a bigtime scorer for a decade, be a big part of a championship team, or win an MVP. Otherwise its not going to happen.
A lot of people wear jerseys when they visit the HOF.
Here's a fun trivia question.... What is the only team Horry has played for that DIDN'T win a Championship while he was there??
you better hope he wears a blazer one because if he is still playing blazers will not win anything
the man has made more clutch shots than anybody in the history of the sport, what makes you think he doesn't deserve to be in the HOF?
Jerry West anyone?
you are living in a fantasy world if you think horry deserves to be in the hall because he made some clutch shots. it's about excellence over your entire career, not just the final seconds of a playoff game. would i rather have anyone else take a shot like that? maybe reggie, but that doesn't mean that you were one of the best players to ever play the game. if there were a "clutch" h.o.f. horry would be its first inductee.
EXACTLY
Something to consider... If Robert Horry makes the Hall of Fame, that waters down the historical significance of what Tim Duncan is doing right now.
I'm not saying that's a reason to root against Horry or any of the other Spurs making the Hall, but in 30 years people need to understand just how dominant Tim Duncan was, and how he carried this team to 4 Championships (hopefully more). I think that will be underappreciated if the history books show that the 2005 and 2007 Spurs had four Hall of Famers.
Horry's been a great role player and has hit some great shots, but he's not in a position to do those things without the legendary big men he's played with, and he would tell you that himself.
Horry will make the HOF. No doubt about it. The guy has made more big playoff shots than any player in history. He's the all-time playoff leader in 3 pointers. I personally don't like him, but I can't deny that he belongs in the Hall.
It's up for debate that he actually played for Phoenix. Yes, he was on the Suns, but he never even tried to be a good player for them. He wanted out so bad... All because of Ainge as the coach. Ainge, when playing for the Suns, in one of the heated Houston/Phoenix series of the mid-90s, chucked the basketball at Mario Ellie's head during a dead-ball. Horry immediately got the back of his teammate, but Ellie wouldn't let him do anything. Ainge claimed the ball slipped, which Horry admitted later on after Phoenix, led to him having zero respect for Ainge the player, which carried over to Ainge the coach. Thus, the towel in the face incident.Here's a fun trivia question.... What is the only team Horry has played for that DIDN'T win a Championship while he was there??
Uhhh..... yeah, Jerry West.
There's at least one Celtics role player from the old days that I can think of that is in the Hall. Horry's just as qualified as him.
K.C. Jones:
7.4 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 4.3 APG, 38% shooting
Robert Horry
7.2 PPG, 4.9 RPG, 2.2 APG, 42.6% shooting
And he's #1 in all-time playoff three pointers made.
Very interesting. I never heard that explanation before.
I'm guessing the Celtics have zero chance of signing Rob as a free agent, then.
KC Jones was inducted in part due to his college career and his two Championships as a coach in 1984 and 1986.
I'd still argue he doesn't belong, and I wouldn't compound the problem by electing other undeserving players that were his equals.
But certainly Horry's moments will be in the Hall in some form. I don't think he's in any danger of being forgotten.
the fact that k.c. jones is in the hall is a travesty. let's not make that same mistake with bob. besides, including him is a big " you" to all the players who are qualified.
and if k.c. is in the hall for coaching achievements, an apology to him.
If Meadowlark Lemon can be in the Hall then Horry definitely should be there.
Link to the rule where it says the Hall is based on statistical production...and the statistical thresholds needed to qualify?
Thanks, in advance. Appreciate it.
K.C. Jones also won 7 Division les, 5 Eastern Conference Championships, and 2 NBA Championships as a coach.
Horry belongs nowhere in the HOF.
