I’m here for the scraps
We are literally at the point where nikkas are like "fukk it we giving him credit for circumstance and teammates performances"![]()
They're out here literally claiming "executives claim it so that makes it true". Never mind that all the data shows otherwiseInterestingly, the people that have reputations for being the most clutch usually come up on paper as being some of the worst. Kobe in the clutch will hog the ball, isolate often, and take nothing but difficult shots. Their offensive efficiency numbers go in the tank compared to what they are over the rest of the game.
This mentality is why players like Duncan don't get a ton of attention. Making sound plays and being successful is boring to the fans who just want to see home runs.
People keep throwing out the argument that Kobe must be more clutch than LeBron because 5>2 but where are the finals wins that were caused by Kobes clutch shooting?
