    I’m from Salt Lake and watching Van Horn in college with this Utes was awesome. One of my favorite players of all time. He’d be a great 5 on any team that really wanted to space the floor with a shooter heavy lineup.

    He would thrive today but he thrived in 2000s NBA as well. He got derailed by injuries. Anytime you have a 6'10 guy who can shoot, put it on the floor, score in the paint and rebound, you have a star, regardless of the era he plays in.

      @@mrvk39 uhh he WASNT an INSIDE presence, which is what was required from bigs back then. and the media, players and coaches all thought he was a bit soft. it may be from stereo typing white players, but he certainly wasnt banging down low like Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, Charles Oakley, and other burly power forwards.. a lot of it was probably media noise, but he WAS more of a FINESSE player.. did he guard Duncan in the post? i dont remember.. sure if Duncan faced up, then Keith had a shot but in the post? i doubt it.

      @@soramirez5473 it's a bit of a myth that bigs of that era HAD to always be inside. There was Christian Laettner, Sheed Wallace, Cliff Robinson - all bigs who were shooting 3s. So, no, there was no such label on them or VanHorn for being soft. In fact, Van Horn averaged 2 offensive rebounds per game, which was and still is great for a PF. And yes, he guarded him in the post when Timmy was at 4.

    Vanhorn was an amazingly talented player, skills for days. The trouble was he was simply too soft for the era he played in.
    Today he'd do just fine, his softness wouldn't matter as everyone in the NBA Is soft now. His skillset would translate beautifully. 6ft 10in, good handles, silky smooth shot.
    Great video.

    Ironic thing about Kenyon Martin was he got to be the scape goat the next year when Duncan forced him into 3-23 in the decisive game 6 [not a typo Martin missed from everywhere].
    Van Horn against the Spurs could have pulled Duncan out of the paint and maybe scored to prevent the 9 minute fg drought in that 4th quarter that led to the Nets demise.
    Rod Thorn made a huge mistake trading for Mutombo and putting him in the middle of an offense that requires the center to pass and move. Mutombo also was hurt and never made an impact even on defense for much of the year. It was Jason Collins.

      3 caveats: he didn't improve much at all, he did not put in the work, effort on the court was also inconsistent. He didn't love the game it was just his job. His family was his priority and you can't argue that as a fault. It is just the reason why he never made the step.

    @johnnelson3665 3 роки тому +1

    Not athletic enough to exploit players at the PF. And he definitely is not a player that does the dirty work. Fun to watch when his shot is on. But too quick to lose confidence at the biggest time. Passing up open shots is his most annoying habit.

    • @scotthaines1461
      @scotthaines1461 2 роки тому +1

      Athleticism was not the problem with him. His issues were attention to detail on defense, knowing where to be, and etc. Before Byron Scott his entire game was taking slower power forwards off the dribble. That is how he averaged 22 in his 2nd year.
      He never added a floater with any arc so he was a victim of shotblockers. The NBA adjusted to him by sending help at him and he never became a passer or developed an in-between shot to counter it. That is how he regressed after year 2.
      As the video notes the Princeton offense was a horrible fit but he still did decent. His issue was meeting Robert Horry in the Finals with Shaq behind him to clean up. He had no chance if he didn't have either a length or quickness advantage based on his skills. The Lakers also kept the Nets in the half court by constantly going to shaq and getting countless trips to the line.
      His confidence was shaky that is true as you said.

    They tried to force this guy to play sf, which is basically a wing. Back then they were so fixated on forcing guys into a "position" and he wasn't big enough to play inside back then. He's a natural center,, he'd play center in today's game and he would be a very good player. Not an all star, but definitely a better fit for today's game.
