And this is why I feel Melo is under rated. Out of the top 15 players during the season GW Melo shoots the best percentage. Over half that list shoots under .400% and Melo shoots something like .480%. He is 5th on that list is the most effective out of the top 10. He has only attempted 27 and made 13 of them. I have always said that down the stretch he would probably be the 2nd or 3rd guy that I would want making the big shot. After looking at the list tho you really realize alot tho. How players such as Billups and Roy get praised for there clutch play but you take a look at the % and see how there not really the best option out there.
Don't understand why people only look at Lebron and Kobe..

Just because you miss a lot of game winners doesn't make you unclutch. It means you have the cajones to take the shots. The fact and the matter is, these 2 guys both have the ball at the end of games, and both score great at the end of games, doesn't have to be the last shot, but they're both great with under 2 mins left, but in my opinion Kobe is better at under 2 mins than anyone else in the game right now.

I agree 1000% basketball is about winning. And If the thread was titled GW in the playoffs do you honestly think I would have made the post I did? Clearly not because Melo seems to go on vacation during the playoffs. But the thread in general was about GW until a Kobe fan boy said something about the playoffs and then the Lebron junkies responded. I simply stated that Melo has been exceptional for GW's during the season and how he shot such a higher % then others.
I then said why do people only talk about Lebron and Kobe because it's a thread about GW's in general and the OP said Lebron was number 1 so I just went through the list and made my comments pretty simple until you made a remark to me..:oldlol:
Back on topic I'm really surprised at Billups at both during the season and in the playoffs.

LeBron is Mr. Clutch. And those guys that are hating on LeBron are either retarded, or a F@got.
Kobe has the lowest IQ in league history when it comes to buzzer beaters, he is however the most clutch player in the 4th quarter. I don't care what anyone says, there isn't a player in this league that is feared more then Kobe in the 4th. He can hit a shot from anywhere and usually does. To me being clutch is stepping up in the last quarter of the game and bringing your team back into the game or extend/secure the lead. Even last night against Boston, he had a terrible game but still managed to hit 3 huge three's when LA was down late in the game, that's clutch. He wasn't clutch in OT however, but without him there would never be an OT. He brought his team back in the game with those 3's when he couldn't buy a basket all 2nd half up to that point. That's being clutch. James doesn't have that mystique, when his jumper struggles it struggles all game long. And the only way he will score in the 4th is penetrating and using his brute force.
Kobe refuses to drive inside on a game winning shot and usually ends up taking a very difficult fade away over 3 people. That's why he has done so poorly, because of his stubbornness/stupidity.
I'm kinda too lazy to read the link in detail. But the Bron is 17-50 in GW'ers. Meaning he had 50 attempts in 5yrs to hit the GW (as defined by them) and he has made 17 of them. Ok.
Kinda wondering about the FTm-FTa, are those game winning situations as well? And the assists tally are assists made where a teammate hit a game winning shot?

ONCE AGAIN 82games is attempting to redefine these concepts. By their definition, a gamewinning shot may be hit by a player whose team didn't actually win the game!
A gamewinning shot is a shot that is hit to win the game. Period, end of discussion. A gamewinning shot is not a shot that is hit with less than twenty-four seconds left and then the other team comes back and makes a shot of their own.
And I would REALLY like 82games to reconcile their list against the ESPN list that said that LeBron is 4/23 in gamewinning situations.

While it's true that Kobe is known to hit all types of crazy shots, he isn't better in the 4th (atleast in the last few seasons) than Lebron. Cav were the best come from behind/close game winning team the last few seasons for a reason. Read below....
Is Lebron always terrible in the 4th? (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=112927&page=3)
Real difference between Lebron in the clutch and Kobe is that Lberon will mix it up and even hit the open man while would rather shoot fall aways over 3 people. Read below...

Bottom line?
KObe's mythical cluthness is just that, a myth. Peole talk about his game winners so much to make comparison between him and Jordan that they don't realize how many KObe's actually missed.
WOW This just puts Mj in another class. Well I always knew that but this just solidifies my opinion. Kobe is good though in making some of those crazy shots. But he misses alot more game winners than he makes. Kobe will be lucky to have a 30 percent conversion rate on these shots. That is ok... :bowdown:

His percentage is almost 50% according to their list. I think CA has peaked overall, but I don't know if there's another player in the league that I would rather have taking a last second shot.

How players such as Billups and Roy get praised for there clutch play but you take a look at the % and see how there not really the best option out there.
Don't understand why people only look at Lebron and Kobe..
IMO this us because Carmelo doesn't have too many games where he just puts his team on his back and just dominates. Even in most of the games that I can remember him hitting game winners in, he wasn't just flat out dominating. Wade, Lebron, Kobe and even Roy have had more of these type of game than Melo.

Kobe=most clutch player in the league.
Why can't he hit gamewinning shots then ? 14 made in 56 attempts isn't exactly superb.
It is as its always been, Kobe is great at hitting impossible shots, but very poor at getting good shots, so in the end he ends up shooting a low percentage in situations like this, but making just enough youtube clips for fanboys to fawn at.
BigTicket
02-06-2009, 09:40 PM
Not one of those guys has a good % in the clutch including your boy Bron.
He's the most clutch in the game because of his ability to take over close games. Because he's been hitting big shots for nearly a decade. Because he can struggle the whole game and still kill you(see end of fourth quarter vs Boston and the 3 straight threes he hit).
Also,this http://www.82games.com/0809/CSORT11.HTM
Most of them didnt shot a good %, but almost everyone shot better than Kobe.
And as for your own example he missed the attempted gamewinner against Boston, and every single shot he took in OT, just so happened that Gasol and Odom bailed him out and won the game anyway.
I'm not saying Kobe isn't clutch, I'm saying he has really poor shot selection at the end of games, and a refusal to pass the ball that hurts his team.
Think of it this way, if I had to pick someone to shoot a fadeaway in double coverage with the game on the line who would it be ? Kobe, no doubt.
But I'd much rather have someone else get me a layup or uncontested jumper, because those go in far more often.
BigTicket
02-06-2009, 10:06 PM
Most them had fewer attempts as well. Who cares if they shot better? It still sucked. And you don't watch Laker games do you? Kobe has definitely passed a ton in the clutch particularly in the last 2 years.:rolleyes: How did get Gasol get the GW dunk last night? Kobe was trapped and passed the ball to Odom who got it to Pau. How about his pass the Fisher that led to the game tying three to send the game to OT vs the Bocats.? Seems like passing in the clutch to me.Kobe not passing in the clutch is a myth by Kobe haters and Lebrick nut-huggers. Kobe was clearly fatigued in the Celtics game but those 3 threes were super clutch. BTW Kobe is shooting 50% in the clutch this year. Fall-away jumpers my ass. There is no more clutch player in the league then Kobe.
He has 56 gamewinner shot attempts and 1 gamewinner assist, 56:1, that's not just an indication he doesn't pass much in these situations, its absolute proof.
He's tell you himself if you asked too, game on the line who takes the shot ? He does. Everyone in the building knows he's taking that shot too, its no surprise, which is why he so often ends up taking it in double coverage. Phil Jackson deserves some of the blame for that too, just not smart coaching and not good team ball.

LOL I remember against the Heat this year, Kobe took a 3 pointer from about 5 feet outside of the 3 point line, and in double coverage fading away. LeBron, Wade, Paul, Roy, most other players would have passed on that one, and given the team a much better shot. But not Kobe. No Mr. Clutch here has to take a shot that barely ever goes in and for the game none the less.

You know nothing of the Lakers. I've watched every single game over the last like 4 seasons and Kobe has almost never shot of double coverage. That is a lie and a myth. That assist number doesn't mean he doesn't he doesn't pass in the clutch. Anybody whose watched the Lakers over the past decade knows Kobe is willing to pass the ball in the clutch. Stop talking about things you know nothing about.God, I hate Lebrick fans..
So your argument is that he doesn't shoot in double coverage, I guess he just can't hit for **** then ? 25%FG is pretty poor even for gamewinners (league average is around 30%).

You realize there was like 1 second left on the clock when he took that 3? I guess you missed the game the next night when Kobe passed it to Sasha Vujacic for the Game Tying 3 opportunity?:oldlol: at the pathetic Bron groupies.
I am a Cavs fan, but there was more than 1 second, at leat three. Unless you find the video to prove it then you have no base.

They seriously count game-winning shots for players even though the other team scores again and wins, or if the game-winning shot is actually only a game-tying shot? That's just crazy...
They don't.

He doesn't shoot in double coverage.
Can't shoot for ****? Is that why hes at 50% FG%, 90% FT, and 50% 3 Pt in the clutch?http://www.82games.com/0809/CSORT11.HTM
The one who can't shoot is that clown lebrick-39 % from mid-range.:oldlol:
Your argument isnt even making any sense, but I'll give you one more chance, why does Kobe his only 25% of his gamewinner attempts and why does he only have one assist ?
I will also do you a favor and break it down for you real nice and simple, in 3 parts:
#1. Kobe always takes the shot himself (supported by the fact that he has more attempts than anyone else)
#2. Kobe never passes the ball in these situations (supported by the fact that he has only 1 assist)
#3. Kobe has very poor shot selection in these situations (supported by the fact that someone as skilled as he shoots only 25%)
It's not that I don't think he's a great player, I think he's the best scorer in the league. It's that like everyone else he has flaws, and one of those is shot selection in clutch situations.

1. Kobe having more attempts doesn't necessarily mean he always takes the shot in those situations you fool.
2. Wrong. I can show you plenty of examples of Kobe passing in those clutch situations.
3. Kobe is at 50% FG in the clutch. Sorry, but your complete lack of understanding correlation vs. causation is just dreadful. What a idiot.
So you still can't come up with a coherent explanation ?
Honestly why can't you just admit that Kobe isn't perfect ? Would that be so bad ? He has flaws just like any other player.

I love how you always post these pics. Probably because you don't have the necessarily vocab and smarts to express yourself. How sad....:oldlol:
Because you are a F@got, and you created 10 or more accounts because you love to suck Kobe's Dick on ISH.

When did I say Kobe is perfect?:confusedshrug: All I said is that Kobe is the best clutch player in the league(which is true).
And my explanation was certainly coherent. I'm sorry if you're having trouble understanding something so simple.
What explanation would that be ? All you did was deny my arguments, you didnt provide any explanation of your own.
So once again you get a chance, explain to me why Kobe shoots only 25% and has only 1 assist in gamewinning situation ?

Read my posts again. You should probably consider going slowly.
See now you're just getting desperate, but I won't get caught up in your attempt to sidestep.
Just write out a simple explanation for why Kobe shoots only 25% and has only 1 assist, that's all I ask, but you can't do that can you ?

Actually he shoots 50% FG%, 50% 3pT%, and 90% FT in the clutch as defined by 82games.com.

You're not helping your cause here with the emoticons, just making it ever clearer that you don't care about facts. You made up your mind that Kobe was the best and no amount of evidence to the contrary would matter, otherwise known as being in denial.
