    Just saw on espn that michael jordan had 25 game winning shots for the bulls. Who do you think is the best current player to take a game winning shot? Or who is the all time best player to take a game winning shot? :cheers:

    Current, I'd definitely want Kobe. He's got an absolute killer instinct and doesn't shy away from the pressure of taking it. All time, I'd probably have to go with MJ, though Kobe isn't too far behind.

    Currently it is definitely Kobe, All-Time it's MJ, but my sleeper pick is Reggie Miller

    Actually current might have to be Roger Mason Jr. this season. He has at least 4 this season?

    No doubt Kobe today. Nobody even comes close in my books. He's incredible in the clutch, and no stats can change my mind.

    Never really watched MJ or Reggie in their primes so I don't want to compare them to Kobe, but he's a WINNER.

    I can think of the Lakers and Suns right now, though I think he's got at least one more. You remember the others?

    Kobe Bryant.

    All time Kobe is tied with MJ, too.

    Durant is cold blooded.

    Kobe's percentage for clutch shots made and attempted is actually quite poor. Not saying he's not clutch because he obviously is, but it's not as clear cut as you think either and can be overstated.

    Kobe is a league of it's own. No one in NBA has the mentality to take over games like him.

    That video is something. Even Jordan wasn't able to do things like these.
