The Perception of the Third Quarter

Seeing Bonner and Blair playing so well sent me into a Frankenstein like madness. Just imagine having this guy. He can shoot the three but at the same time be at the paint to get his own offensive rebound... Im salivating over the possibilities.

Bowen and the Cavs dont seem to be close to signing anything. One bullet dodged.

Should Horry be a Hall of Famer?

After some interesting discussion regarding Horry's merits to be included in the Hall of Fame I decided to do a little digging. In the process I found evidence both for and against Horry being inducted to the Hall of Fame. Im sorry for bringing stats and facts to the discussion, I know they are not always welcome here : )

Poll
As it stands today, should Robert Horry be inducted in the Hall of Fame?
Yes, without him the Lakers, Rockets and Spurs would have less titles

No, he just tagged along for the ride and is extremely lucky. He should spend time playing bingo!
