Ok I was discussing this with Tony the other time, and my pick was Reggie, his was Jordan. I thought Reggie shot some real good buzzer beaters, he is known for that, (remember that one over Jordan :happy0144: ). Is Their anyone missing?
Michael Jordanhonorable mention:Robert Horry, Reggie Miller, Kobe Bryant, Larry Bird(could be the greatest as well)

I cant argue that he made those important important shots. But im sure he cant be best All time, though most people recognize him because he made those very crucial shots at "crucial" times.
Jordan. not only could he come up with great offensive plays, most of his last second heroics were actually set up by him playing defense and getting a key stop. take for instance the 98 finals, in game 2 Jordan came up with a big stop to let the Bulls win, in game six he steals the ball from malone than drains that famous play against Russell. he doesn't get those two big stops the Bulls lose to the Jazz. Jordan did the same thing in the preceeding series against Indiana, and countless other times throughout his career.
Jordan, Bird, Reggie Miller... Honestly can't think of anyone who was more consistant when it came to clutch-time.
I go with Reggie, altough Jordan is a close second. Its just ive never seen someone make so many shots in such clutch situations
Jerry West can be mentioned. "Mr. Clutch. that half court shot he made was incredible. Could have been luck though.

As of active players, Carmelo Anthony, Robert Horry, Chauncey Billups, Kobe BryantAll-Time, I'd say Michael Jordan,.
Its a shame to have an active players list and not include Paul Pierce. He has made some of the most difficult game winners I have seen in my life. Overtime vs Washington last year with 2 guys in his face? No problem. Vs. New Jersey with Kidd in his face? Nothing but net. The guy is a rock out there.

Robert Horry? I you guys f*cking crazy? He's made like 4 amazing shots in his whole f*cking career. C'mon!The Greatest Clutch player ever was Jerry West nobody else is even close. Not even MJ.
What else can I say. Michael Jordan not only hit clutch shots, he was perhaps the most fierce 4th Quarter player ever to suit up.
