Call them Exhibits A and B in Robert Horry's case for being the best role-playing clutch shooter in NBA history. As a Laker in 2002, Horry nailed a buzzer-beating, top-of-the-key three-pointer for a series-tying 100-99 victory against the Kings, the signature moment of a riveting seven-game epic. As a Spur in 2005, Horry (21 points in final 17 minutes) took advantage of Rasheed Wallace's defensive lapse to knock down a three-pointer with 5.9 seconds left in OT to give San Antonio a 96-95 win and, again, a 3-2 series lead.
