LOS ANGELES -- Robert Horry, known for his tendency to hit big shots in key situations, says he's not looking to play anymore. He'd rather coach or continue working as a broadcaster.   

"I'm more interested in those gigs. I just started putting my name out there," said Horry, who was at Staples Center for Game 1 of the Lakers-Magic series.

So where would he like to end up?

"I think I have a respect around the league where guys will respect the knowledge I have. I'm a crossroads guy and I have knowledge from both big time eras."

Teams can certainly grab hints about what it takes to make clutch shots from Horry, who won NBA titles while playing for both the Lakers and Spurs.

So which shots rank on the top of his list?

How about the shot in 2003 when he hit a game-winning 23-foot jumper with no time left to give the Lakers a 97-95 win over the Pacers?

"The shot I made here is always going to be tops. It gives me goosebumps. That's the only shot I made with no time left on the clock and that's how you want to make a shot. It's such a special treat when you can walk off with no time left," said Horry.

"The shot here, the shot in Detroit and the dunk in Detroit are tops."
