Jorge Sierra: The only players to reach the conference semifinals 16 times: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Robert Horry Derek Fisher LEBRON JAMES A new record every other day.
Q. What do you think is the golden era of basketball? Robert Horry: The golden era is to me I think when Magic and Bird had that confrontation, then you had when Jordan took over, then you had Shaq and Kobe, and once the bigs left the league, that's when to me the golden era ends because you think about the great battles that you had against other bigs and then once the big kind of left the game it became the shooting era. I just think the golden era was a bunch of bigs and you had guards, you had bigs and everybody else can play. Well, don't get me wrong, I love I still love the NBA. I get frustrated with the NBA, but I still love it. And I just think because you love to see guys talented, the way they can move their bodies, where they can shoot, the things that they can do is amazing. One of my favorite guys is Ant-Man.
Draymond Green: "“Robert Horry goes on the show and brings me up in the conversation. Maybe I think he wanted some attention, so everybody, let’s get Robert Horry the attention that he deserves. But I don’t know what I had to do with this. He said, ‘I always laugh because I’ve always seen certain players—I’m not going to call no names, cough, cough, Draymond Green—that say things to the refs and they let it slide. But when you say things to other players, there’s no pushing or shoving. You want to call a double tech on the players. Stop taking money out of players’ pockets.’ Robert Horry, I am in favor of not taking money out of players’ pockets. I am not sure how you ended up with my name in this statement, because it just doesn’t really fit the conversation. Number one, I don’t talk about people’s families.”

Draymond Green: “I talk a lot of [expletive] on the basketball court. You can ask a lot of guys the things that I say. I don’t talk about guys’ families. I have, in one instance in my career, and it wasn’t about family relationship stuff. This guy, I thought, had went way over the edge, and gloves came off. But I’m not one to talk about families. I don’t do that. I think there are certain lines you don’t cross, because no one’s going to come on the court to talk about my family. That line won’t be crossed. So, respect Luka for standing up to that, because that’s not something you back down from.” “Certain things shouldn’t come on the basketball court, and family is one of them. I’m not a fan of family being mentioned on the basketball court, guys’ ladies being mentioned on the basketball court, guys’ kids being mentioned. That don’t work for me. I just don’t play those types of games.”
NBA Courtside: Draymond Green on the Luka vs Goga beef: “Goga Bitadze said he would fu*k his whole family up. At some point I can’t stand for that, I got to stand up for myself. Robert Horry goes on the show and brings me up in the conversation. Maybe I think he wanted some attention. So, everybody let’s get give him the attention he deserves. But I don’t know what I had to do with this.” (Via @DraymondShow)

Lakers fans were not as fired up, but they were hot, booing when news of Adebayo’s 83 points was delivered inside Crypto.com Arena before the Lakers’ 120-106 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves. “Honestly, it hurts,” said Los Angeles’ Erik Ortiz, who was 6 years old when Bryant had his 81-point night. “And it’s kind of messed up. All those free throws? No disrespect, but it didn’t feel earned.” “A disrespect to the game,” said Robert Horry, who played with Bryant in L.A. for seven seasons. “To me, don’t cheat the game. If you’re gonna play like that, that’s cheating the game.” “But,” Horry added, diplomatically, “scoring 83 points is still hard regardless if you cheat the game or not.”
Dan Patrick: How would your Rockets have done against Jordan's Bulls? Robert Horry: We would have beat him. We would have beat him. You know, it’s… Everybody wants and everybody's like, "Well, Jordan actually loses sometime. All the greats lose sometime." If you just go by our record against the Bulls when we were there and we were pretty good. I think when it comes to matchups, and I think Vernon matching MJ was a pretty good matchup. Myself against Scottie was a good matchup… So now, who was gonna match up with Dream (Hakeem Olajuwon)? Nobody. So playing for Phil, and knowing Phil's mentality, I think we would have won that series. And I know a lot of people like, ‘man, you crazy!’ I'm like, people forget Jordan came back in ’95. He had a double nickel against the Knicks, but he got beat by the Orlando Magic. Why? Because his team wasn't good enough.
Rush: Marcus Smart tosses an errant lob to LeBron that lands in the stands, and then he says, "My bad, GOAT." Robert Horry found it amusing, lol. #NBA Threads

Richard Jefferson: Give me your top two game winners and why. Robert Horry: Western Conference final against Sacramento Kings. Jefferson: Oh, that was a beautiful one. Horry: Just because it was done at home and the every athlete has an ego, so you want to hear the fans chant your name. And of course the second half of Game 5 in the 2005 Finals against Detroit.

Lakers Daily: Robert Horry rips Luka for foul baiting “His game is predicated on getting fouls called, and the refs dont give him a call, he starts hunting even more to try to prove the refs wrong. You’re too good of a basketball player to hunt for fouls.“

Robert Horry: “I told you a story about when all of a sudden the hand goes up and everybody like Dennis about to say some profound f*cking and he goes to tell Kurt, ‘This is the worst f*cking coaching job I ever seen in my life.’ Has Shaq ever told y’all that story? Oh my goodness, man. We had just got Dennis Rodman on the Lakers, right? Kurt Rambis had took over as coach and we’re in a locker room and you know usually you, you know, you know make halftime adjustments. Rodman ain’t said [__] to nobody. He been in like a month. All of a sudden he just does this little hand goes up and everybody’s like, ‘Okay, Rodman, say something.’ We all look like, ‘Oh, Rodman about to say something. Here we go.’ ‘This is the worst [] coaching job I ever seen in my life. Ain’t no [] adjustments on the board.’ And he just goes off. And we’re all like, damn. Well, tell us. And then the next day, Kurt threw him off the team. Eye for an eye.”
Robert Horry: I get a steal, hit a three, get a block shot. Three minutes in, I go to the bench and I'm like, "Danny Manning coming to get me?" What? Oh, f*ck no. Uh-uh. And so I said, "Why you subbing me?" And Danny Ainge said, "Shut the f*ck up and go sit down." I said, "Did he just say what I think he said?" So I went down. I said, "Who you f*cking talking to like that?" He said, "You." I said, "Man, f*ck you." And that's when I threw the towel in his face. So at the end of the game, we in the locker room. So you got Chucky Brown, Mark Bryant, me sitting next to each other. Joe Kleine comes in there and says ‘Man, we don't f*ck do that around here’. I’m like, ‘Man, you shut the f*ck up, you bigheaded f*ck’. I mean, y'all got to excuse my language. I'm hot. ‘I’mma whoop your big head ass right now’. And Mark Bryant and Chuck are like ‘Yeah!’ So, basically, it's the three Houston guys against the whole Suns. Wayman Tisdale said like, "Guys, calm down." I'm looking around like, "This is all you punk f*cks right here ain't going to do nothing." And the only person that calmed me down cuz I was about to tear some locker room up, and I love this guy, was Paul Silas. He was like, ‘Rob, calm down. Calm down. Let's go in the back’. So, he took me into the room. I said, "No, man, f*ck this." And I'm hot. So, and I'm usually a mild man of God, right? I'm hot because it's just… I hated Danny Ainge. I hated the situation I was in. I was missing my kids. It was just a lot of stuff going through me at the time. After all everything died down, I wasn't even going to get on the bus. I was just going to make find my own way back to wherever I was going to go. Paul Silas says ‘come on, get on the bus’. We get on the plane, we go back, I get suspended for two games. And then Ainge called me after submission. He said ‘Hey, I just want to let you know I probably just won you another championship.’ I'm like, ‘Why?’ He says, “because I just traded you to the Lakers”. Click! I hung up the phone in my car, and I was driving to LA. I ain't even know who I got traded for who I was with. I ain't give a f*ck! I was out. I was out.
Robert Horry: "The other ring that means a lot to me is 16-1, man. You got to think about that. That one damn game against Philly, game one. We just wanted to go 16-0. There’d be no doubt in anybody’s mind that that was the greatest run of all time... We smacked everybody in the West. Then we come up and lose that one game to Philly in overtime. Makes me mad to this day to talk about it."
