He's got more rings than Michael Jordan, but was he any good, or just lucky? This is a breakdown.

The game of Basketball has been my passion since I was 5 years old. I grew up as a kid watching my dad's recorded VHS tapes of playoff games through the 70s and 80s, and collected all the Basketball cards. Something about the game and what it represents just hooked me from a very young age.
My love for the game only continues to grow as time goes on. I love studying and analyzing the game, with an unbiased perspective. Feel free to subscribe, follow me on social media, and celebrate this amazing game and it's rich history with me!

I’ve seen that game 5 live back in the day. He totally won that game by him self. That’s not luck, that’s pure skill. In my mind the difference between a superstar and a “very” good player is mostly mental. To be in that superstar destroyer zone 100% of the time is not something every person can do. But to be there for 1% of your career when it matters the most - that’s big shot bob.

You NEVER heard he got traded for not fitting in or making the wrong plays, being out of shape, or a bad attitude. Consummate professional.

"Because he earned it" … this reminds me of one of my favorite disses of all time. Larry Bird was ragging on a rookie, and said to a rookie guarding him, "Hey rook, look at this" and Byrd proceeded to throw up an airball completely missing the rim. When the rookie tried to make fun of Byrd, he said "Oh, that's nothin', the point is I will still be in this game, can you do that and stay the same?"

That entire Game 5 4th quarter + OT was surreal. The dude basically sat on the bench the entire season and most of the playoffs but then when the Spurs needed him the most, he pulls off some legendary shit. I thought he was too old to be useful anymore but there he was, knocking down shots. When he went for that dunk, it didn't even look like he jumped high enough but somehow, he was barely able to put it down for the lefty and-one jam. He even hurt his shoulder doing it. And then of course, Rasheed Wallace has one of the biggest defensive brainfarts of all time and the rest is history.

Sudhir Kakar I can’t believe this has to be broken down for you, but here it goes. Objectively, there is nothing wrong with the statement I made. Simply because other players made more or more memorable clutch plays in their careers, doesn’t mean that clutch plays were not what defined Horrys. I used the word specifically to literally tell you what I thought as a fan. What you are ultimately getting at without realizing it, is that you would like me to make no subjective statements about Horrys career, because there are so many players who have played in the NBA who have made clutch plays. That’s unreasonable. Almost as unreasonable as your replies to such an obvious statement. My sentiment stands true, when I think of “clutch”, Horry pops into my mind immediately because he made incredible and memorable clutch plays throughout his career. The endless KZfaq ether abyss is calling you Sudhir. Go home.

Moment my Lakers traded away Cedric CeBALLHOG to the Suns for this guy, I knew they were on their way to championship status again. Horry was notorious for "laying back" during the regular season, but when the playoffs rolled around MAN OH MAN were you glad he was on your team!!! People say Reggie Miller was the most dangerous shooter at crunch time? Well Big Shot Rob was right there with him in that category. Underrated defender, too. ;-)

The 3 at the end was just the crown on top

I think he deserve Hall of Fame for that.

Horry transformed into an entirely different postseason player. He averaged roughly 10 ppg in the NBA Finals and hit many huge shots in the waning moments in addition to being a solid contributor on each of his seven championship teams. He didn't ride anyone's coattails in the playoffs. His teams would not have won NBA titles without his legendary efforts. Horry was the ultimate X-factor. I would put him in the Hall of Fame for his overall body of NBA work.

It takes a commitment to playing the game well to fit this well into 7 Championship teams, 3 different coaches and 3 different systems. Let's start with this Rudy T. says he drafted Horry because of how well he guarded Shaq in college and Rudy T. played Horry as a wing for his first few years. Horry was not only clutch but, versatile and team minded.

Name one player, in any of the major sports....who comes to mind in the same way Robert Horry does. Maybe a few clutch moments here and there. But Robert did over a whole career spanning 2 decades . Including basically saving teams from elimination in years they won championships .On the rockets, lakers and Spurs. They would have been eliminated from the playoffs, if he didn’t hit those shots. Then they went on to win rings. Literally with three different teams, you can save they would not have been able to win those rings without. He is the greatest clutch player(non-superstar) ever in all the major sports. No other role payer even compares . Debate over

dude was a 6'9-6'10 SF,PF elite shooter good defender long and athletic, he played in the wrong era because he'd be a high quality 3rd option piece in the nba now . like robert started for 5/6 ring !! and put up big numbers when his time was called and was great for Houston , played defense and was that championship piece all teams need

Lucky? Champions have championship DNA from super stars to the role players...Horry thrived on championship teams, there's a reason the title contenders gave him contracts...

I like to think of Horry as the cherry on top on every team he's in. He ain't the dough that made the cake what it is but the cakes would definitely look different without him.

He was a great teammate. He performed his role on the team better than 98% of his peers. Should be in the HOF.

Well in "95 Finalls - he was seconds from beeing supersar. Efficient in offence, deadly in defence. And clutch. He chose to be Big Shot Rob. But imo he has star potential - near 18 ppg, 10 rpg, 4 apg, 3 spg and 3bpg - thats Scottie's Pipenn statline! In the Finnals! That weren't just rangom guy, that became Big Shot Rob - thats were decent player 2. or 3. option in the championship team. And he was only 25 at the time! R. Horry story isn't suprise because he has talent and "genes" to play on the championship level. He found his role in rotation despite age and injuries, and made his legend for years. Thats impresive!

I will not say this guy lucky, but highly underrated. Horry was not some flashy dunker or sharpshooter, he's just a team player who completes the task given to him. I don't think I ever see him playing selfishly or disobeying his coach. I always see his role was to play as the patch for any holes a team might have, and he did a great job in doing that. First time saw him was back in the playoff 1994 where he was playing for the rockets with Olajuwon, and always knew he will hit big in the future. I mean he had that composure and patience. When later he joined Lakers or Spurs, I always said, "They better put horry in the starter and they will have the ring". He was simply gonna patch the holes that's been causing the team rings.

Horry should be the NEXT COACH of the LAKERS. He can and will keep players in line. It's called RESPECT.

Robert Horry has always been one of my favorite players. When I was a kid back in 1990 I thought he was my uncle. Cause he looks just like my moms brother.

If you put this dude in his prime in todays game, he’s a flat out star. Imagine this cat shooting 10 3’s a game with his length and ability, he was a pure shooter in an era that wasn’t built on deep shooting.

He may be the most clutch shooter, but darn he wasn't a starter. He just has that clutch gene.

I just looked up his bpm on basketball reference. He had a higher bpm than Kobe for the Lakers third ring. Really interested to know why his defensive metrics were so good as his box score numbers are good but not great
