Top 5 Lakers vs. Blazers Games of All Time

3: Robert Horry Leads Lakers Past Blazers in 2002 Playoffs

Robert Horry is known for being one of the most clutch players in NBA history and that was on display in the 2002 Western Conference Semi-Finals. The Lakers were on the verge of sweeping the Trail Blazers in three games (back then it was just a best of five series) in Portland, and thanks to the heroics of Horry in the fourth quarter, the Lakers did just that.

Beginning at the 5:50 mark of the video below, Horry puts the Lakers up two points thanks to his corner three and makes another vital play on the defensive end. In the very next series, Horry makes another game winning play against the Kings en route to an NBA championship.
