Microbursts are random locations. More common in geographical areas, like KDEN or where convectice activity, especially in dry areas, are common. But associated with specific runways? Ah, no.
The 777, like almost all aircraft that don't start with an 'A', is a great crosswind landing airplane. Hardly 'shaky'.
