[projectspurs.com] Could you have imagined the Rockets trading Horry for Sean Elliot

I am really, really confused. Where am I?

 

Yes, I can imagine it. I remember it well. Context for the comment?

 

Save the clock tower!

That no trade was really when Horry became Big Shot Bob.

 

And we also drafted Dream, won two rings, and traded Tmac.....

 

could you imagine the twin towers falling

It happened. Though, President Bush failed all his school exams and ummm ummm- i forgot where i was going with this

 

holy crap, i forgot to sign

DD

 

could you imagine if we have signed micheal jordan instead of hakeem olajuwon?

maybe we woulda had 6 champoinships

 

If we trade Sampson to Portland we would've got drexler and their draft pick (jordam) ....dream Clyde and Jordan nobody would've stopped us.

DOC!!!!! Where's the time machine!!!!!!?!?!?!!?

 

You know, I have always wondered what it would have been like had that trade not gone the way it did. Elliot on that Rockets team would have been a damn good contributor, but one cant help but wonder how things would have been different those 2 years.

Horry was extremely critical in the 95 playoffs, so much so that had not Hakeem been so dominant, he could have made a legitimate argument for Finals MVP. His play was outstanding that year.

But lets not forget that Elliot wasn't a player that couldn't have contributed in his own way as well. Elliot was extremely underrated in his career.

 

of course i remember.

Horry mentioned that after returning to the Rockets, he lost his hesitation to jack up shots.

Thus began the legend of the Big Shot.

it started with the Rockets, not the Lakers.
