Comparing Bosh to other team leaders in the clutch

I wouldn't have thought that Bosh's would have been so good...BUT he has been alot better down the stretch as of late.

However, the problem is that there is only so good that Bosh can be in down the stretch, the reason is that he relies on the refs alot more to get his baskets. And you know the NBA, refs really don't give these calls unless they have to. I'm sure that it will get better as he continues to be better known...but still it will be hard to get calls on last plays of games every time.

I can't believe people needed stats to see that Bosh is a clutch player.

- Rudy Gay's eFG% is an ungodly .708.

So clutch that his team has won an ungodly 11 times with him as the go to guy.

Sorry if Rudy Gay efg is higher than guys like Lebron who not only hit clutch shots down the stretch but hit clutch shots to lift his team to victory then I dont hold much faith in these stats.

So you want him to single-handedly win every game down the stretch?

Yeah, I prefer discussions that center around a player's hairstyle and astrological sign, too.

A lot of people have always thought that Baron Davis was one of the most clutch players in crunch time and that eFG pretty much backs that up. He doesn't get the appreciation he deserves because he's playing for Golden State.

How about a thread discussing stats based on how well players play with different hairstyles. I'd love to see how much that little patch of hair contributes to Drew Gooden's success.

I've never been a big fan of Baron Davis, but the guy is definitely no shrinking violet; since his days in Charlotte, he has always been a much more prudent shooter in the fourth quarter, and a very dangerous guy to play against with a slim lead.
