He may be underpaid.    Can we at least all agree he’s worth the money now?

This thread still gives me a chuckle.

Sixers had no real answer for Horford last night.  He was killing them multiple ways and its pretty apparent his importance as one the key cogs with the offensive sets.

Horford's run in the playoffs so far this year is reminding me of KG circa 2012.

I agree! Although I never have said that he is overpaid... :laugh:

I like Al’s personality more than anything honestly. For our young guys to see Al as a role model is huge IMO.

Horford is having the best playoffs of his career this year.

He is exorcising the demons that question his ability to play in the playoffs.

Lets see Horford carry this team to a few road wins first

I believe he was awesome in last year's playoffs too.  That's why I disagree with thread title.  He is the starting center on what if healthy is the best team in the East and easy favorite to meet GS in the finals if not for injuries.  And a stud in the playoffs.  Isn't that enough?  Get your mind off the money and the money off your mind...   >:( ;)

Fair or not I think he'll still have a cloud over his playoff abilities in some people's minds until he has a good series against LeBron.

Ah yes, another contrived hoop for Horford to jump thru conceived by triboy.

There is a pretty reasonable chance he never plays lebron again in playoffs.

Embiid thinks he's the shiznizzle.
But his Achillies heel is a five who can shoot threes.

I'd say that'd be the case for just about any big man guarding a 5.

I love Horford and he is once again proving what a stellar playoff performer he is, but I don’t think anybody has ever considered him a true rival to LeBron. He likely needs to make a finals (which he will next year for sure), but actually beating LeBron as the main guy probably isn’t a necessity.

Baynes looked like Larry Legend in the corner for 3. So true!!!
