Robert Horry: Notable playoff clutch shots

-May 22, 1995, Western Conference Finals, Game 1, Houston Rockets at San Antonio Spurs
Horry nailed a jumper with 6.5 seconds left to give Houston a 94-93 win over San Antonio in front of over 35,000 at the Alamodome.
-June 11, 1995, NBA Finals, Game 3, Orlando Magic at Houston Rockets
With the Rockets up 101-100 with 20 seconds left and the shot clock winding down, Hakeem Olajuwon kicked the ball out to Horry, who hit a 3 over Orlando's Horace Grant to give the Rockets a 104-100 lead with 14.1 seconds left propelling them to a 106-103 victory and a 3-0 series lead. Houston won Game 4 to complete the sweep and win back-to-back NBA titles.
-May 6, 1997, Western Conference Semifinals, Game 2, Los Angeles Lakers at Utah Jazz
Horry drained all seven of his 3-point shots. However, this wasn't enough as the Lakers lost the game 103-101 and ultimately the series 4-1.
-June 10, 2001, NBA Finals, Game 3, Los Angeles Lakers at Philadelphia 76ers
With the series tied at 1, the Sixers were down 89-88 with under a minute to play and with Shaquille O'Neal on the bench having fouled out for the Lakers. Brian Shaw found Horry in the corner and he drilled a 3 with 47.1 seconds left to give the Lakers what proved to be an insurmountable 4-point lead. Horry, who had been a 44% free throw shooter in the postseason to that point, also made 4 free throws in the final minute to seal the victory. The Sixers never recovered.
-April 28, 2002, Western Conference First Round, Game 3, Los Angeles Lakers at Portland Trail Blazers
Down 91-89 with 10.2 seconds left, Kobe Bryant drove on Ruben Patterson and kicked the ball out to Horry, who hit the game-winning three with 2.1 seconds left.
-May 26, 2002, Western Conference Finals, Game 4, Sacramento Kings at Los Angeles Lakers
The Kings led 99-97 with 11.8 seconds left. After Kobe Bryant attmpted a game-tying shot and missed, Shaquille O'Neal attempted a putback. When that missed as well, Vlade Divac knocked the ball out of the paint to try to run the clock out. However, the ball came right to Horry, who hit a game-winning 3 at the buzzer to give the Lakers a 100-99 victory. Instead of going back to Sacramento down 3 games to 1, the shot tied the series at 2 and allowed the Lakers to defeat the Kings in 7 games on their way to a 3rd straight championship.
-June 19, 2005, NBA Finals, Game 5, San Antonio Spurs at Detroit Pistons
Horry inbounded the ball to Manu Ginóbili who was cornered by two Pistons defenders. Ginobili returned the ball to Horry on the left wing, who then hit a 3 with 5.9 seconds left to give the San Antonio Spurs a 96-95 victory and a 3-2 series lead heading into Game 6. Horry scored 21 points combined, in the fourth quarter and overtime to carry the struggling Spurs.
-April 30, 2007, Western Conference First Round, Game 4, San Antonio Spurs at Denver Nuggets
The Spurs led by one with 30 seconds left when Horry hit a game-securing 3, handing the Spurs their fifth straight playoff victory in Denver.
