Game-Winning Shots: Career Leaders?

With Pierce's growing number of career game winning shots, the latest one coming against ATL, I was wondering how he fares against the all-time clutch greats. Googling for a bit I couldn't find any official stats - just speculations. It seems that Jordan is the all-time leader with 25 of them. You know Bird has to be right up there as well.

Does anyone have access to that surprisingly absent stat?

Just not something people keep track of, or haven't in the past.

A few years ago 82games did a nice study of it, found here:

Obviously that's only 3 seasons, 03-04, 04-05, and 05-06. Hopefully they're still keeping track and can update it sometime. No surprise PP is in the group towards the top, and is good at drawing fouls.
