Just thought I'd point out that today marks two decades since Robert Horry made a clutch 3-pointer to help the Los Angeles Lakers defeat the Sacramento Kings, 100-99, in Game 4 of the NBA Western Conference Finals.
This series ended up going to a full seven games, with the Lakers marching their way to a third straight championship (after sweeping the New Jersey Nets in the 2002 NBA Finals) that hasn't been accomplished by any other team since.
It's unfortunate that the Lakers are nowhere near the caliber of the greatness that defined this organization from 2000 to 2002, and then 2009 and 2010 (and of course, 2020), but it's all good.
All I can say is, I look forward to who the Lakers will get as their next head coach, and how they'll spruce up their roster for the 2022-'23 season. And lastly, I'll be rooting for the Golden State Warriors to win it all if the Boston Celtics reach the NBA Finals...which they will. Happy Thursday!
