    I am very very very confused. Is Michael Jordan not on the list because he is the obvious #1 and we are talking about other people? Or is this active? Then why would Reggie be there? And where's everyone else? What the hell..

    I'm pretty sure the list is active.. but it says it was written in May, 2005 which explains Reggie being on there.

    In the league today though, Horry, Billups, and Arenas come to mind. Derek Fisher maybe too.

    Today....Horry, Kobe, Fisher, Arenas, Billups, Duncan, and McGrady.

    The anti-clutch? LeBron, Dirk, Iverson's only got a couple of game winners, I don't know where his clutch perception came from.

    I wouldn't consider Shaq clutch, his FT woes were a major pain in the butt.

    Let me guess. You'd have Kobe at #1. Horry over Kobe in the clutch any day of the week.

    Either

    Jordan
    Bird
    West
    Horry
    Miller


    I'd trust any one of those men taking the last shot for me down the stretch of a big ball game....I won't go into saying who is more clutch than who...

    I like Dream's list, plus I'd probably add in Kobe, and Tmac, and maybe Wade.

    You seriously giving me a good laugh man. [​IMG] I can live with MJ, Bird, heck even D-wade being better than Kobe in clutch but Horry? Are you joking man? Down the sketch with 24 seconds left, the guy having the ball in his hand, as far as I know is not going to be Horry. Horry is just a setup man and spot at some 3 point line and waiting for the go-to-guy to make a make move and diss the ball to him, wild open and shoot. That is calling being clutch (with an *). Kobe/MJ/Bird doesn't need any helps from anyone in their last second shot, this is what we call a "true clutch player". Get that in your thick skull man hahaha [​IMG] .

    Did you just put Kobe at the same level of clutch ability as MJ and Bird? You're the funny one. How many playoff game-winners has Kobe hit? I could probably count the times in one hand. Horry has made a career of hitting shots. And he has created shots for himself in the clutch. See: NBA Finals 2005. It wasn't just a last second shot. It was a series of shots. I'd give the ball to Reggie Miller or Robert Horry before I give it to Kobe Bryant. Kobe's missed far more than he's made. Kobe homers are a joke.

    I haven't seen tons of Paul Pierce but enough. I haven't seen many games where he is clutch. But, if you care to elaborate, I would like to see.

    Any evidence of that. He is clutch, yes I agree. But top 5, I don't know. If someone can send a video, or a link or something to show me exactly how clutch PP can be?

    Alright seems fair to me. I'll look him up myself.

    I agree though, when healthy he is extremely dominate and clutch in certain situations, but he just isn't my Top 5, Top 10 yes, but not my Top 5.

    I think my Top 5 list would be, for today's NBA is

    1. Horry
    2. Bryant
    3. Billiups
    4. Kidd
    5. Hamilton

    Um, no. Jordan's a 50% career shooter. How would it even be possible that he missed more than he's made in the clutch? He'll go 70% for 3 quarters then miss all his shots in the final minute of the game? Please. Young Kobe fans don't know basketball.
