I'll bet on odds of Lebron demanding Kyrie be traded for CP3.

how come curry sit out major 4th quarter minutes if it isn't that he already finished off the opposition ?
discrediting a players body of work because they didn't make some crazy shot is not right with me.

The clutch stats are based on actual data. The rankings based on opinions. Huge difference

and you think this clutchness data wasn't available to them when they made that ranking ? it either factor incredibly low as it rightly should or it is totally useless.
if the 10% shot he makes are in high stake playoff game it already craps all over gay that shoots 40% all season. regular and post.

My guy bone that thing. ESPN is filled with unrepentant LeBron fanboys who think he is the best thing since Hollandia yogurt. You people make excuse after excuse for him and it is becoming nauseating. Didn't you claim he was the underdog in 4 of the 6 Finals he's been in? This is the kind of LeHype that annoys us on the other side

He might be the best player ever to you guys but by God don't call him clutch or a player that delivers in crunch time where I'm at. I will always shoot that claim down with hard evidence.

you havent shut down anything,
that stat is skewed and heavily in favour of fine shooters it doesn't say anything new.
if the 5 clutch shot LeBron made occurred in the post season (I remember one against Atlanta this season and one against the bulls last season) and the other mostly are in the regular season does that not make these clutch stuff meaningless?


RIP Keshi,his name will forever be remembered fondly in this country history.

The truth is, you can't change everyone's mind to see why you can't out LeBron in the class of Kobe, Jordan especially when they do not want to.. That guy has always been pampered, given the luxury to afford 6 time straight finals and where the truth lies is, "how many has he made out of the hype and luxury?? 2/5 and about to be 2/6.. But since the media has always hyped him cos that's what sells, those who are sold already would still continue to hump on it. He has been exposed and cannot anything about it and they are about to pamper him out of it again and people like us who has refused to be fooled are tired of hearing that sh1t. Remember the blowout against Spurs, he just caved in, was timid and we all saw there wasn't any spark of fight in him same in this series.. He individually can ball, But how well? Can he ball against Iguodala who he has met twice and cannot find a solution than to pass or Kawhi?? If he faced Tony Allen, how well can he fare?
You can't count on him in pressure.
Re: The NBA Begins by Manutd19: 9:12am On Jun 08, 2016

Guys if this continues i mean "Game 1's MVP was Shaun Livingston, Game 2's was Draymond green" you can make an argument for Iggy in both games tho! But if different players continue to step up in each games who would be Finals MVP? undecided

I hope Curry go all Berserk mode in game 3 and 4 so he can win it.... Dont want all these naysayers to come here and say two finals in a row no Finals MVP blah blah blah. angry angry angry angry CUZ we know they would come up with one excuse or the other to downplay the warrioirs this season angry angry angry angry angry angry angry

I'm just concerned.. They'll both show up tomorrow if Cavs win.. But I hope we win tho.. I'm presently watching the Game 1 again and it's like it's going to be 4-0 or 5-1 only because LeBron doesn't deserve to be disgraced like that cheesy

thanks for the correction,
I just saw that now.
I don't really care about clutchness even if data says LeBron is better in the clutch.
it is a ridiculous metric to judge player by.
