Is Kobe Bryant the greatest clutch shooter in NBA history?
Kobe owns the NBA record for most game winners in a season (6) and most in a career (36).

Kobe is clutch don't get me wrong but stat-wise it has to be Damian Lillard, Dame has a higher percentage than Kobe and shoots less last-second shots.

God, no. Kobe bricked most of his last second shots, and choked in his only Game 7 of the NBA Finals

Nope, I've read a statistical study on this. He actually shot a significantly lower percentage with the game on the line. He owns these records because he owns the volume of attempts records.

I give Kobe credit for not being afraid of big shots (unlike Lebron) but Robert Horry was a running joke because of the way he just walked on the court and hit a game winner over and over. Others that come to mind- Jordan, Derek Fisher and Reggie Miller. Bird probably hit a few too.

I wouldn't go that far. He had a lot of game winning ATTEMPTS, but he missed far more than he made. And he'd rather shoot than pass to the open guy. Have a teammate open for a game winning three pointer? He'd rather go 1 on 3 to take the shot. It cost the Lakers a lot of games.
