Try and keep thomas-
Very nice veteran role player
(seems like he's older than 35.....)

Let horry go- they need to find a more athletic big

horry is done period

thomas 50/50 we all know how tight the spurs are

i see a couple of other teams using some of the mid level exception to get thomas as defensively he can still play a decent role

spurs will only offer a tiny salary as usual

Horry should retire, Period.

of course the queens of flopping spurs are gonna keep their big flopping 3 of parker, ginobli & the king of flopping duncan but i hope the whole team breaks up i dont like em ppl would rather watch the sapranos than watch these guys in a finals appearance so hopefully they wont make the playoffs n e time soon i love it!

Horry is a killer team player. People calling for his retirement don't know what they are talking about.

Have to keep Kurt. Just have to. He is too gifted of a player to be let go. On Horry? Since you are not going to sniff at the Finals anytime soon there is no reason that you need Big Shot Rob.

"Why is everyone saying Horry is done? The man can still play "

- what ?
he can play.... like 8 minutes a night- tops
can still shoot, but they got outside shooters already


"As for Thomas he isn't the best shooter in the world from games I have seen him play "

- what ?
he's actually a decent mid range shooter.....but that's nt his game-
he rebounds and plays D- points from him is not waht you are looking for
- if they can sign him to a reasonable deal- he's a GREAT compliment to Duncan- whether backing up or starting

Horry can help in limited minutes. At the right price shooters are always welcome in the NBA.

Thomas is still a good defender and can serve as a solid backup. If they let him go, watch for another team (a return to PHX would be a good move. Dallas should look into it as well).

Horry, no thank you. He is not the same shooter he used to be. If the Spurs want to get younger, Horry is a spot where they can upgrade.

So yes, keep Kurt and let Horry retire.

The Spurs will tweak things a bit and be ready for another go-round with Kobe and the Lakers next season. Expect one big roster move this year to get a big man.

kurt thomas looks like greg odens little brother. they will keep thomas and chose to let horry go. as long as their is a better option they have. why let someone go when you don't have a viable option to replace him with.

of course the queens of flopping spurs are gonna keep their big flopping 3 of parker, ginobli & the king of flopping duncan but i hope the whole team breaks up i dont like em ppl would rather watch the sapranos than watch these guys in a finals appearance so hopefully they wont make the playoffs n e time soon i love it!

Ok dee of dees come back when ur team can make the playoffs! Ur heat are the laughing stock of the nba. What a joke....

I agree with most of the posts here. Keep Thomas and waive Horry. The fact that Horry played only 45 minutes proves that he's done. He already has more rings than almost anyone in NBA history, and his desire to get more rings is waning.
Since Horry still wants to stay involved with the game, I have 2 possible suggestions for him:
- Go to the Phoenix Suns. Horry has brought luck to all the franchises he has played with - the Rockets, Lakers, and Spurs have all won championships with him. Maybe he can do the same for the Suns. The Suns need another big man, and Horry can fill the gaps when Shaq needs a rest. Besides, the Suns feel that Horry denied them a chance to advance last year, so it's an opportunity for both sides to mend the wound.
- Become a coach. As we've seen, the NBA desperately needs qualified coaches, and Horry has more NBA experience than almost anyone - not just many years, but also many playoffs, including several championship runs. He has played under 3 of the best coaches in league history and has learned their various offensive schemes, including the special Triangle Offense (when he played under Jackson with the Lakers). As a big man, he brings special expertise in that area.
--------------------------------
Once the Spurs let Horry go, they can try to seduce Rasheed Wallace or other big man to fill the open roster spot.

Robert Horry as a special player can be seen in the picture with the article, where he is hypnotizing the referee.
Very few players in the league have even attempted to hypnotize a ref, let alone succeed at it.
Horry has special abilities indeed.

horry should go to the suns

spurs will only offer a tiny salary as usual

A small salary with a great championship size incentive.

of course the queens of flopping spurs are gonna keep their big flopping 3 of parker, ginobli & the king of flopping duncan but i hope the whole team breaks up i dont like em ppl would rather watch the sapranos than watch these guys in a finals appearance so hopefully they wont make the playoffs n e time soon i love it!

Another hater doing what they do best.How about you let the Champs worry about what they do,and yes i still have the right to say champs since the season is not over yet.As far as flopping goes that is a matter that will be addressed in the next season since there will be regulations to it.So every team will be under watch not just The Champs

Thank you, CEL. Duncan, a FLOPPER? The KING of flopping? You've got to be joking and too poor to see an eye doctor.

I love Robert Horry but I think he wants to retire and probably will. I got to meet hm recently and was very glad I did since I assume this will be his last year. Why do you think he switched to nuber 25? He wanted to retire in the same jersey number he started in.

Keep Thomas. And if horry can be big shot rob again then keep him. Although we didnt see any of that in the playoffs
