Dirk & Kobe ungodly from three in the 4th

[IncarceratedBob]

These stats are fabricated. Kobe never led the team in 4th q scoring with shaq

[HylianNightmare]

Boykins

[DaOldLion]

108 views and 7 replys . This thread won't get the attention it deserves, but great stuff. Very impressive for guys like Shaq, Kobe & Dirk to be on this list during championship runs

[sundizz]

Great post. This truly shows how fg and efficiency can be used in so many different ways. From seeing this it truly seems like Kobe was some efficiency god with the level of scoring/efficiency from the floor, tre and line he put up in the 4th. I guess when it mattered he was locked in.

Actually surprising to be honest that he was THAT good in so many different years of playoffs for the 4th quarter.

[Black Mamba's B]

Good stuff from these players, I thought Melo would have been on the list. Kobe, Durant and Dirk's efficiency

[plowking]

Wow... Lebron was second last year with 7.3ppg on 50/35/80.
The year before, second again, but struggled somewhat, with 7.4ppg on 44/35/78...
And even before that he was killing it.

Seems weird that this unclutch, and disappears in the 4th quarter thing ever kicked off.

[riseagainst]

but but but everyone says Lebron is not clutch.

2011 finals

3pts on 33% shooting

That's why. Not that he hasn't rectified it.

[no pun intended]

Dirk: 9.9 ppg on 51/53/94
