James Posey Looking for a 3rd Ring


Robert Horry had won championship rings more than James Posey, that's the fact.

Horry had won seven titles; 2 in Houston, 3 in Los Angeles and 2 in San Antonio. Posey had one each from Miami and from Boston. The question now is, "Does he have the Horry Aura and score one in New Orleans this time?"

Posey, a 6-foot-8 forward who last season helped the Boston Celtics win their first title since 1986, agreed Wednesday to a four-year, $25 million contract with the New Orleans Hornets. He had averaged 6.7 points and 3.6 rebounds per game last season.

With the Hornets, Posey could compete for a starting role as a small forward; an opportunity that he didn't have from the Celtics.
