Lemon Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I don't see how there's even a question of who's more clutch right now. Lebron has been messing up in 4th quarters ever since last years finals. He's now a choker just like how Dirk was a choker before he won the finals in that authoritative way. He's got to prove that he can will his team to a win just like Dirk did. Otherwise, that's his demon. The only reason why people can compare the Lakers/Jazz game and the Heat/Clipper game is because both went into overtime. These are two entirely different games though. On their last shot of regulation, both Kobe and Lebron failed pull their team to a win. That's the only similarity. Jazz played the 4th quarter well. They returned each clutch shot closing the 4th. Millsap was clutch in the 4th to keep Jazz in the game. Then Kobe misses. Okay, OT. Kobe misses a few more, but he has a KEY 3pter to change the momentum in OT. Otherwise, Jazz keeps the momentum. Lakers eventually win. On the other hand, Clippers didn't play very well in the 4th. CP3 had a remarkable 3rd quarter, but he came out nearly empty in the 4th. Everyone remembers the crossover on James that happened right before he missed the gamewinner, but CP3 missed a few before that that would close out the game. Shots that he usually makes. James demanded the ball but continually he failed to convert. CP3 didn't make him pay. Then, OT. Butler makes the first shot, Wade seems cold, Chalmers keeps Heat in the game, DJ becomes clutch defensively, Clippers win. Fully comparing these 2 games, the answer is obvious.
