It is easy to look at something like this and say oh LeBron isn’t clutch.
But, clutch in my opinion isn’t just game winning shots, it is stopping runs, making a key defensive stop, making the extra pass and etc.
Way too many variables to just put it all on game winning shots.
Also note that LeBron has taken 10 more game winning-tying shots than anyone else in the league. Meaning he is being asked to bail out his team more than anyone else and when everyone in the world knows he is likely taking the shot.
Interesting stat, but don’t make it more than it is.
LeBron James is 5-47 on game-tying/go-ahead shots in final 5 seconds in last 10 years. Only Jamal Crawford is worse pic.twitter.com/97otlJAwBg
