So when NBA Commissioner David Stern walked to the podium and announced the Rockets had just selected Robert Horry with the 11th pick in the 1992 NBA Draft, there was shock, dismay, and a loud chorus of boos. Horry would turn out to be a key member of the Rockets' back-to-back championship teams with his clutch shooting and solid defense.
I miss that "Why bother during the regular season when I only care about playoffs" fool. He was so clutch. He could have been a Hall of Famer if he wasn't so lazy.
