    If Horry keeps giving the Rockets love, he will have no shot at the TNT gig.

    Well, Horry is just too smart to join that group.

    I've said it over and over again firing Rudy T was the biggest mistake this franchise ever made.

    Rudy perhaps more than any other coach had the knack for adjusting the "system" to the players.

    Really fun read. I remember when all the "experts" so lots of Rocket fans said Rudy was just a "player's coach meaning not good like the strict JVG
    Type so many fans adore.

    This... this kind of stuff right here. Who on our team has the care to do this? Harden... I wish.. Dwight... no... I just wish we had that guy who commands respect while truly leading by example and voice

    Horry keeps the true legacy of Clutch City alive, not the false version

    That's the wonderful thing about tinmans. And tinmans are wonderful things.

    Every team's fan site should have at least one guy that is constantly bringing back the greatest memories in that team's history.

    I hope he does post this interview in a couple of years. I'll want to read it again then.

    How is Robert Horry not a hall of famer? 7 rings in 16 seasons with 3 different teams, while always making the playoffs and never losing in the first round.
