In the Rockets, he was with Hakeem Olajuwon getting two NBA titles in 1994 and 1995. Then, in 2000 to 2002, he earned a three-peat championship title while playing for the LA Lakers. Horry again get two additional championship title in 2005 and 2007 when costumed San Antonio Spurs. With that title series, it seems legitimate for Horry to criticize other players, especially if the player has never won the championship. True, the person in question is Charles Barkley.
At the beginning of the 1996/97 season, Horry became "a bartering tool" on trade Barkley from the Phoenix Suns to the Rockets. However, in fact, Barkley was unable to repeat the triumph in the Rockets as he had done by Horry. "They (Rockets) brings Barkley, someone who does not like to exercise, a person who does not want to work hard. As if they did not realize that Charles (Barkley) does not win anything when strengthening the Phoenix Suns and the Philadelphia 76ers. And sometimes, great players is not always make a better team, "Horry said.
However, Horry deny that Barkley is not the mentality of a champion player. He only said that it would not be good if in a team too many stars. Because at that time, the Rockets already have two of the top inside of Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler. If added Barkley, then they will have three stars on one team. "It is exaggeration if there are many chefs in the kitchen. Both Olajuwon, Drexler, and Barkley was a scorer. Most teams just naturally have a great scorer."
Horry points meant is that too many stars in the team would not be good. Will be difficult for them to put aside their egos, so it will worsen the playing system. Reflecting on this season the phenomenon may be represented by lunge Cleveland Cavaliers. With the trio of LeBron James-Kyrie Irving-Kevin Love in fact they never won the NBA, and was defeated by the Golden State Warriors that in fact only reinforced the star, namely Stephen Curry.
