Seven-time champion Robert Horry revealed how a heated exchange with Utah Jazz CEO Danny Ainge led to his trade to the Los Angeles Lakers , where he won three championships throughout the late-1990s and early 2000s. To avoid a 3-1 deficit, Horry drained the biggest shot in Lakers history in the 2002 Western Conference Finals against the Sacramento Kings. For some, Robert deserves to be in the Hall of Fame for his clutch moments and seven titles.
However, Horry's tenure with the Lakers probably doesn't happen without a heated argument with Ainge, his then-head coach during his time with the Phoenix Suns in 1996-97. Ainge benched him during a regular-season game against the Boston Celtics, which eventually led to his trade to Los Angeles, Horry said, per Byron Scott's Fast Break.
