My list would be similar but I would replace Lebron with Matt Bonner.
Who fits the bill?
So far I've got my Top 5 at:
Lamar Odom
A-Rod
Tony Romo
LeBron James
Vince Young
honorable mention to Ryan Howard
subject to change

Big Market, Big media coverage influence you much?
Got any small market picks? Or can you only be a choke artist when you have above average coverage?
No mention of Kenyon Martin? Amare Stoudemire? Andrew Bynum? Josh or JR Smith... Or any of the 50 players that are eating their way out of the league at any given time?
Pau Gasol
Matt Bonner
Any player who whas worn the Blazers jersey
John Starks
Greg Anthony
Charles Smith
Westbrick
Don't forget Neftali "choker" Feliz and Nelson "too fat and lazy to make WS winning out" Cruz
Great contribution to the thread scroh.
you're really using this thread as an outlet for your small-market inferiority complex?
Richard Jefferson. Dude got benched against Memphis because they took his cookies and he cowered.![]()
Lebron will no longer be on that list after he wins it all in June. Ryan Howard easily is one of em. Arod as well.
Lebron
Odom

I mean you have to be REALLY unlucky to never make it out of the first round (not counting the Rockets run where he was injured).
Kobe
Fails in big moments (see clutch metrics), cries about being traded, quits in a playoff game, cries to a wife who stole half his money on national tv....
You got no room. Rodman cried and quit as well.
Jackson & Diaw quit and killed their coach and Pop signed 'em nonetheless.
I love my small market. I've gotten to see 3 finals clinching games in person, and enjoy 15 consecutive winning seasons for 1/4 the price of doing so in a big market.
I don't like the takes of people that watch the show instead of watching the game.
The only person that is "Mentally Weak" on your list is Vince Young...
I wouldn't call Matt Bonner an athlete.
Those are the most notable ones, not the most mentally weak. They are mentally weak in very visible situations, other athletes fold long before they ever get there (Bobcats come to mind).
Dale going for the trend
if I say it enough it will become true
hoping someone else says it so I can say it's a trend
mortally afraid of Diaw and Jackson.
No
None of those guys are mentally weak.
Spoken like a gray...
aww, bless your little heart.
My city is less populated than yours, and I've gotten to see 3 Superbowls, countless bowl games, a BCS championship game, a Game 7 of the World Series, a Stanley Cup Finals game, and 2 NBA Finals games, just to name a few.
The difference is when those seasons end I have South Beach, Coconut Grove, the Keys, cheap drugs, golf, and cuban es at my fingertips 365 days a year.
You have the Spurs, HEB, and a bottle of A1.
