Let's talk about how Keith Van Horn... - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

is AWFUL!!! How was that guy the number 2 pick? He missed layups last night. Let the ball go off him and out of bounds more times than I could count. DC played his guts out only to have this guy miss opne shots and not play D. I would rather have any number 2 pick in the history of the draft than that guy (and yes that includes Stromile Swift!!)

He only averages around 10 shots a night. He needs more shots than that to get in the flow but Allen takes them all. He has been doing a decent job on the boards.

Again, let me say that this team is designed around Allen not Keith so if anyone should get the blame for being awful Allen is right there...5-25 does not cut it.

Which is why the sixers will never win a title. If Iverson has an off night, they lose. If he does good they have a chance to win.

Van Horn should play tough, but he doesn't. Give me Tyrone Hill over that suck ass every day. Iverson did not shoot well last night, but he still did enough for them to win. DC did enough for them to win. Van Horn did not. Here is that suck ass' line from last night:

PLAYER POS MIN FG FGA 3FG 3FGA FT FTA OR DR TR PF PTS
Van Horn F 29 2 10 0 0 0 0 2 7 9 4 4

4 POINTS????? He did not even get to the line! HE SUCKS!!!! Tyrone Hill would be better right now if he was not hurt, hell he might be better hurt.

Since when is Van Horn a tough guy? He never was in college and he certainly was not with the Nets.

If you are expecting toughness than maybe you need to put Hill in there. As a coach you should play to your players strengths and not their weaknesses and sorry but if Brown and the fans expect him to be tough...well then we see you next year.

To blame it all on Van Horn is extreme. Blame it on AI if anyone. He's there leader and doesn't allow anyone else to get a hot hand by him taking the majority of the shots. Just to name 2 No.2's you wouldn't take for him are Sam Bowie and Len Bias.
There are many more but I'm not gonna list them. You can check for yourself here

I would have taken any of them over Van Horn. Comparing him to Bias is pretty weak, as anyone would have taken Bias number 2.

Seriously, Van Horn should not be starting in the league. He plays well enough in meaningles games, but awful in big games. He had TWO points last night in 45 minutes. He is supposed to be the second scoring option. I hope the Sixers dump him like the Nets did.
