Where's lebron?

kobe = most overrated clutch player in history

Lebron is not clutch.
(BTW it's not the end of the world for you Lebron bandwagoners that he is not clutch. He's still the best player right now).


The real question is ... where's Dirk?

I'm a bulls fan. LeBron is ridiculously clutch.

The Kobe myths lol. Statiscally, visual proof, team clutch stats all point to Lebron, dirk and cp3. Guys that go 6-24 and perform worse in big games compared to their rivals is not the not the most clutch player in the league. Unless you consider clutch a guy who will just shoot no matter the circumstance whether 1 guys on him or 3.

And yet he has far fewer game winning/tying shots than any of those other guys on the list.

It's fine to perform well in the last few minutes of a game ... but can you make the game sealing shot?
It's just that we rarely see Lebron game winners. Even with the Finals game 6 it was Ray Allen hitting the clutch 3. In fact, it always seems that someone on Lebron's team goes nuts behind the 3-point line (ex. Battier/Miller).

i remember him doing that against paul george pretty vividly

melo has easily the best track record in game-winning/tying shots. it's his one elite skill: isolation scoring. unfortunately for nuggets/knicks fans, not a lot of games come down to the last shot

1) Kobe- Forget the stats, unlike Lebron EVERYONE knows Kobe is gonna take the shot and he still makes it
Sometimes. When facing Miami wade, ray Allen are all players you have to
Check so lebron doesn't have as much coverage as Kobe.

2) Dirk
3) Melo
4)Pierce
5)Lebron

he does not need that most of the time because he closes out the game before it

OK.

Someone please make a compilation of Lebron game winning/tying shots.

about to drop knowledge on ya

in playoffs, tying/go ahead shots final 24 sec of 4th/ot since lebron entered in 03-04
lebron 7-17
kobe 5-17 (1-7 before 03 for 6-24 for his 17 yr career)

playoffs, game winning shot in final 10 seconds of 4th/ot career
lebron 5-10
kobe 3-14
and just for perspective, jordan 6-13

in both game 7s and elimination games aka come up big or go home, lebron the leading scorer all time.
kobe in game 7s avgs 22.2 ppg on 38.9% shooting.

going reg season, in this era lebron stands out again along with dirk. you can gain knowledge on that over here viewtopic.php?f=64&t=1248280

so in the current nba, i think the most clutch players are lebron, dirk, cp3

This will end well.

Better lock this up now mods.

My personal favorite will always be Dirk, but Kobe is the master of making unmakeable shots.

No other player can do this in today's game under those circumstances.

Please put these kids to bed. There source is nba memes and sas and bspn. Whatya expect

The obvious omission is LeBron which has been duly noted. However one other player deserves mention and that's Kyrie (Mr Fourth Quarter). In only his second season he's been ridiculously clutch at both taking over closer games in the last minutes as well as making the last shot.
