At the break? You sure about that?
Yes, I do.
He didn't have to - he was playing with 2 other All-World players.
WHOA - iono about that.
...which was my point. Hornacek was a better player overall than Kyle Korver is, who had similar success on a successful team,
that did not get chosen for an All-Star team.
No I don't. Eastern Conference, doe.
The fans vote for the starters, doe. Kyle Korver was chosen by non-fans.
- Jamaal Magloire did not start an ASG.
- Tone only started one because Zo was injured.
I'm pretty sure, Korver was on pace to have the only 50/50/90 season in league history at that point his numbers dipped a little but he ended up pretty close.
Hornacek's game was a little bit different than Korver that's why he didn't take that many threes, on those Jazz teams Korver would still be taking 6 threes per game and he would absolutely feast with the shorter three point lines of the mid to late '90's.
Korver is a better defender. Korver has always been underrated on defense and has been praised by Tom Thibodeau for his defense, he's of course limited man to man but he's a good team defender and understands concepts well. He's had a + defensive box plus minus for like that last 5 seasons, Hornacek was usually in the -, he tried but he was undersized and not that athletic.
Hornacek could have made an All-Star team in the mid to late 90's, if Nick Van Exel could get in so could Hornacek he just wasn't lucky.
Why do conferences matter, Korver made the team in the East right? Also the Hawks won 62 games it's safe to say they were beating everyone and had a great record against the Western Conference. Again, part of the reason they were so good was because of Korver's impact on offense, they 12.5 points worse per 100 possessions a huge drop. You see why ATL has struggled in the playoffs because he isn't playing at that same level and the Hawks are running into teams with size.
