I can probably name 20 off the top of my head for Jordan and I'm sure if I researched I could find even more. I can name at least 5-10 in the NBA Finals, alone.
I can name 2 or 3 for LeBron right now, too.
I can't name any for Kobe. Maybe I'm forgetting some...I do remember one against Phoenix where he did something super badass in OT or to get the game to OT...so that's 1. I remember Artest making the biggest shot in one Finals game to win the game...and Gasol cleaning up a Kobe miss to win another. I remember Kobe went 6-24 against Boston though, that was real good. Real MJ like.

You obviously don't remember the three title runs from 2000-2002.
Game 4 against the Suns in 2006
Game 2 against Kings 1999 - shot 12/20 from floor 32 points.
Game 7 against Portland 1999 - 25/11/7 and was pivotal in coming back from 13 down in the 4th quarter
Game 4 against Pacers in NBA finals, Shaq fouled out. Kobe dominated OT and hit the game winner.
Game 3 against Sacremento 2000 W semis - 36/7/4
Game 4 to closeout Sacto 2000 W Semis - 48/16/3
Game 1 against San Antonio W. Conference finals - 45/10/3
Game 3 against Santonio 2000 W con. finals - 36/9/8
Game 5 against Philly to close out NBA title - 26/12/6
Game 1 against Orlando NBA finals 2009 - 40/7/8
Game 4 against Utah W. Conference quarterfinals - 38 points
That's just the ones I could quickly look up and I remember a majority of those clutch performances.
Saying you can't remember one clutch Kobe playoff game is hyperbole at it's finest.
