Al Horford Thread

When it was just KP, the ring was not a sure thing, but with the addition of Jrue, let's just say the ring is very likely.

It would be a shame if he retires without a ring. Maybe last two chances this year and next.

Horford embracing his role as the Super 6th-Man, is really a boon for this Team.
Al is selfless, humble and a consummate professional. What's not to love?

He’ll hit his threes soon enough. That doesn’t just go away. In the meantime, he can still do this…

Can't Wait to see Playoff Al.
He's getting in shape.

And Al is not finished.

We'll see more great things from Al in May and June.

Horford is 19-8 (70.4%) vs. Embiid since coming to the Celtics in 2016, playoffs included.

Blaming Al for the Sixers that year is the most Philly thing to do. #JusticeForAl

Rumors of his decline were greatly exaggerated - some started by me. Great to see prime time Al last night. As great as KP has been, we still aren’t sure how he’ll measure up as a defensive stopper in a series like we’ve had with Heat last 2 seasons. Having an all time great like Al who can still bring his A game when it matters is key to championship hopes.

Almost as good as the Thad Young club:

Horford has a good case on his NBA career alone (especially if he can win a title). With his two NCAA championships, I think he is a lock to get in.

I want him to win a ring and get in the HOF. I know those 2 things would make him so damn happy, which would make me very happy too.

BBref has Horford's chances at 22% and that's probably right. He's been a consistently good player and tad underrated based on his counting stats but at the end of the day you are looking at 5 AS games and 1 All-NBA. That's not a HoF resume.

The big thing he has going for him is his college career. If it was just the NBA HOF he doesn’t make it but if he wins a nba chip; that coupled with his college championships should give him a decent shot

I love Al and his return to Boston has been a game changer. However, the way Sengun is playing like the second coming of Jokic…..the trade may not look so good in a couple of years. His highlights for this season already are mind blowing.

If Cs get a ring with Al then worst case scenario is it's a fair trade.
