    You may be right but please list me the shots at the buzzer he missed that's for the tie or lead.

    Jordan has missed more game winning shots than he has made.

    Mobley has missed more game winning shots than he has made.

    Thus, Jordan = Mobley.

    How about Michael Redd. A long range specialist like him would be a great last second shooter. But maybe he chokes, who knows.

    I doubt he gets many opportunities with Ray Allen and Sam Cassell (and before that Glen Robinson) so willing to take the big shots

    Most of the guys on the list are 3rd or even lower options in the offense. And Barkley calls Allen "the coward." Not sure if there's any truth to that though.

    I get it!

    Maybe Cat believes the majority of his shots are game winning shots. That might explain the off balance and ill advised shots he takes.

    :D

    did anyone else catch this part?

    "I wanted the shot," Mobley said. "I was saying to coach, `Iso,' to get me an isolation play. I knew he wouldn't do it. He would go to the great players. But I wanted the shot."

    Instead, the Rockets went inside to Barkley, who had controlled almost all of the second-half comeback. But though Mobley said Barkley's pass showed the veteran's confidence in him, Barkley said it didn't. That is the Rockets' offense, he said. It just worked out that the ball ended up in the hands of a rookie, all the better if he is a rookie bold enough to expect the last shot.

    "I didn't have confidence in him," Barkley said. "He was open. I didn't even know it was him. But that young fella has some talent."


    HAHAHHAH....i loved the italicized parts

    MOBLEY IS VERY GOOD. He doesn't have enough experience with Clutch Shots, though. He is one of the best. It's a disgrace! At least he was the NIKE BALLER OF THE WEEK!!!!! WOOHOO!!!

    AND MOBLEY IS NOT CLUTCH?

    DID ANYONE NOT SEE THE LUCKY SHOT FROM FAR OFF IN SPACE WITH .something SECONDS LEFT?

    That's pretty clutch...although we lost the game.

    He wasn't dissed...he was just unrecognized.

    AND the people on the list are very well deserving.

    One...Nick Van Exel. He recently made the game winning three. I would love to have Nick Van Exel on the Rockets.

    the cat should be #3 behind van exel and rose. guess he has to win some games for the rox to get some recognition as one of the better sg in the nba.

    Thats the truth. Did anyone else see the play in the Spurs game in S.A. a few weeks ago where Rudy called Stevie and Yao's play (where someone inbounds it to Stevie on the baseline, Yao sets a high pick for Steve, Steve uses the pick and comes around the arch for a 3: The player where Stevie sent the game into O.T. against Memphis earlier in the season... The play where Stevie sent the game into O.T. against Miami last time they met, which they came out victorious, and the play that sent the Lakers and Rocks into Overtime on 1-17...) anyways, did you see when Rudy called for Cato and Mobley to run.. and what it ended up to was Cat shooting all air? Funniest **** i've ever seen.
