That kobe killer instinct nonsense is worse than the lebron isn't clutch narrative.
You're still right about Howard though. Soft, whiny, overrated.
Also Ron Artest/Metta World Peace has a killer instinct... but probably more literally  |
He has killer instinct, but he's still a diva. I think that explains the Game 7 you referenced. That, and he was pouting because Mitch put such a terrible team around him. And as we found out recently, he and Smush Parker (who was starting at PG at that time) have no love lost between them. This game, however, is one of several reasons Kobe will never measure up to Jordan.
