    Default Is it correct that LeBron and Kobe only have 1 buzzer beater in the playoffs?

    Just looking at some stats from this. I want to see if it's accurate, and i know it's missing James game winner against indy at the buzzer game 1, but is it leaving out any other shots?:

    It looks like Kobe only has 1 buzzer beater in the playoffs, but he has another shot with .2 left that could basically count as a buzzer beater. First 9 years in the league, Kobe was 4/15 on game winners. LeBron is 5/12 Neither number is great, but there's one clear winner there. Kobe made 4 in a row from 2004-2006, which is respectable. After that, he only went 1/10

    Those are honestly pretty bad clutch numbers for Kobe. Why do I remember him being so clutch? Was it Horry/Fisher saving him? And really? Only 1 buzzer beater for each Kobe/LeBron in the playoffs? Who has Jordan's buzzer beater numbers?

    Would be curious to see some updated numbers on LeBron. It doesn't include 12-13

    That's the one I'm counting, along with the Indy game 1. I guess technically Bran has 2

    Jordan had 3 buzzer beaters off the top of my head. 1989 Game 5 against Cleveland, 1993 Game 4 against Cleveland, 1997 Game 1 against Utah.

    1989 Game 3 vs. Detroit and 1998 Game 6 against Utah, he made game-winning shots that left a few seconds left on the clock.

    Also, anyone know if LeBron attempts are missing from 12-13? Did he miss any game winners? Can't remember off the top of my head

    Doesn't really matter, but it looks like LeBron is winning in overall clutch numbers

    Who cares about a buzzer beater? So if a guy makes a shot with 15 seconds left to put his team up, is that not clutch? Or does the clock have say 0:00 to count as a clutch shot? You guys are such simpletons...
