Re: NBA Yearly Match-up Tournament: 4/5 LaRue Martin Region
You're severely overrating Robert Horry, a limited spot player whose Johnny-on-the-spot career overshadows the fact he's played with some of the most dominant players in NBA history. Tom Gugliotta is the better overall player -- a much better, more consistent scorer and a better rebounder. Horry is arguably the better defender and may be a better long-range shooter, but his overall game is limited.
I like Doug Christie's versatility a little better coming off the bench than Jimmy Jackson's, plus IMO JJ in his prime was a little better than Christie in his prime. I also like Jackson's size and brawn better in a matchup vs. Magic Johnson; as good as a defender as Christie was, Magic will post him up rather easily and get him into foul trouble. The muscular Jackson will make it harder for Magic to take him in the box.
