Luka is so good.

I seriously think the Mavs can beat the Warriors to reach the finals and what a story that would be.
Reggie Jackson is amazing and a killer in the clutch that's all.

PG13 & Kawhi really did the West a service by containing Luka. They dont want to meet each other again in the first round next yr.

They definitely don't want any part of him going forward. He already gave them all they could want before.

I think that 2nd sentence is false.

Can't believe that MJ and Kobe both don't have more game winning buzzer-beaters than Vince. :roll:

Honestly I can't remember more than a couple buzzer beaters from Kobe and one from Jordan, but I see no reason to doubt. Game-winner ≠ Buzzer-beater.

What is the correct reading of the second paragraph?
Vince Carter has 5 Game winners vs Boston or is it Vince has 5 3 point FGA game winners.

Either way it seems like a silly stat

"such game-winning buzzer beater..." meaning by 3pters only.

Yes, I meant game winners too, wasn't talking about normal buzzer-beaters. Kobe has way more than 5 normal buzzer-beaters and probably more than anyone else in NBA history.

Anyway, I looked it up. One source says MJ has the most game winning buzzer-beaters with 9 and Kobe has the 2nd most with 8. Don't know if it's fully accurate but here's Kobe's 8.

Oh okay. Anyway, if Luka already has 3x of those, then he's bound to get more than anyone else.

Kobe almost certainly has more misses with a shot to win or tie a game than anyone else too. He played forever and was the go-to perimeter guy basically his entire career. Don't overreact to him having made 8 without the data of how many he didn't make.

Not over-reacting, Chuck, was generally curious because I thought it said Vince had the most overall... which would have been surprising. I thought Dirk would also have more than Vince. You're just sensitive to anything positive about Kobe. :P

Man nothing against any of the players involved but that is the quintessential ESPN stat. Factually accurate while conveying no useful information beyond bar trivia.

Yeah yeah, I was talking about 3-pointers lol (he apparently has 3, I forgot about one).
