 | Robert Horry(#25)Height: 6-9 Weight: 220 lbs. Position: Power Forward and Small Forward Born: August 25, 1970 in Andalusia, Alabama Age Drafted: 22 College: University of Alabama Source: Basketball Reference |
Strengths
JPS 3PT PSD STL
Big Shot Bob was one of the great crunch time scorers in NBA history. He hit big shots during championship runs for three franchises, LA, SA, and Houston. Offensively, Horry was more of a catch and shoot player. He has great range for a big man, and has no problem extending past the 3PT line.
While well-known for his offensive exploits, Horry's real value was in his defense. He can easily defend either forward position, and could probably handle some guards as well. Because he never regularly got starters minutes during the regular season, his steals and blocks numbers are low, but he was very adept at making steals and had the height to block smaller forwards.
Looking at his playoff numbers, is probably a better indicator of his true potential. Over 240+ games (at 28mpg) he has averaged 7.9ppg 5.6rpg 1.1 spg 0.9bpg. He would should end up a good rotational player for a contender.
Weaknesses
BLK INS HND PAS ORB DRB
Horry's biggest problem is that he's just not an efficient scorer. Despite his acclaim as a great crunch-time shooter, he only managed 42%FG and 34% 3PT. The biggest reason for this is that he lacks a true post up game. Most of his shots (and misses) came from jumpers. Horry also lacks the ability to take defenders of the triple, so as mentioned earlier his only real offensive ability is to catch and shoot.
Another reason that Horry will probably end up playing more SF than PF is his rebounding. His career average of 4.8 and per 36 average of 7 are not exactly what you are looking for out of a PF. He was below average as both an offensive and defensive rebounder.
Offensively, he should never produce more than 10ppg
Notes
