Manu sure is giving him a good run.
Might've been brought up sorry if it was. It was just something I've been wondering. Want to see what you guys think.

Hyperbole much?
Ever see Magic, or West, or Bird, or that Jordan guy?
I would say no....but he's fast becoming our next Steve Kerr...
Reggie Miller...
Don't know many players who have hit more game deciding jumpers than Horry. He's right up there with the best of them.
It was just a question. I agree Bird was great....from what I've seen on ESPN classic since I was a little too young to remember. He was an awesome 3 pt shooter throughout his career. And I believe he is the only one out of those you mentioned that was a more proficient 3 pt shooter.
Now maybe I'm wrong for it but how could you not help but go with the numbers? Jordan wasn't an excellent 3 point shooter, and neither was Magic. Well not as good as Horry anyways.
As long as he is not playing against his former team, he is one of the most clutch Spurs we have had, yes.
You know it takes a great heady player like Horry to usurp Nazr from the lineup on the floor late in the game. Nazr is playing great, but he does not have near enough experience in big games like Robert has. Horry knows exactly when to shoot, when to go for loose balls, when to make the block, rebound and pass the perfect pass at at the right times down the stretch.
He is invaluable to this team's chances to win it all.
Reggie Miller? How many rings did he win again?
Horry hits big shots AND wins Championships. You can't get more clutch than that.
That was a killer 3 ball toward the end of the game even though
I question him actually taking that shot. I think one of the other Spurs players even said we dont question Robert Horry's shot selection. Great job Big Shot
I am glad he is on our team with the hot hand. I pity the team that must endure BIG SHOT BOB!!!!!!!
Speaking of the "Big Shot" name: This morning on Ticket 760, I think Jeff Vexler said that Rob did not like to be called Big Shot Bob. Walter questioned this.
They went to a break, came back, and Walter was still calling him Big Shot Bob.
What gives?!?
Pop said that he drew that shot up in the timeout prior to that shot. Bob just did what Pop told him to.
I just saw the hand in his face and I thought it was a contested shot, but the guy has ice in his veins what can you say?Pop said that he drew that shot up in the timeout prior to that shot. Bob just did what Pop told him to.
horry played for the suns at one time
This was one of the best player acquisitions Spurs have made...
U think he won the championships by himself? he was just in way better teams than Miller.
apparently, he didn't like it though. (Heard that on 760 this morning)
I'd be more inclined to say Reggie was more clutch, because I've always thought that truly clutch players don't just make the big plays down the stretch (although that is also big) they a big impact during the entire game in big game situations. Case in point, Dirk = not clutch. Manu = on his way to being the guy we ask this question about in a few years.
Miller didn't want to move around .. just something about the pacers where they would have great seasons and then choke in the playoffs. It's all about the supporting cast...
Wow I never new that.
Oh well he is Spur now...suckers
Jerry West was called Mr. Clutch, and for good reason...but
I'd have to say Michael Jordan is the most clutch player ever. Reggie Miller, Larry Bird and Robert Horry are right there after Michael.
I remember Horry's days in Phoenix because he threw a towel in Danny Ainge's face while he was arguing with him on the bench. It was the funniest damn thing I had ever seen.
Id have to say
1.Jordan
2.Bird
3.Miller
4.Horry/Kerr in a tie
Horry won't get the top billing because the other guys mentioned were clutch and made spectacular plays at the same time. Horry hits the same basic shot again and again. How many guys A.) have the balls to even take those shots with the game literally on the line or B.) have the ability to make them? The guy is truly amazing.
