****OFFICIAL NBA Playoffs Thread****

Have been banned from the other thread by an apparently sensitive snowflake (ironically after dozens of pages of political discussion from others) so I'll stick my thoughts on the NBA Playoffs here from now on. We needed a new thread anyway.

2 seconds left? I’d go Curry. He hasn’t proven to be super clutch, but he’s the only guy in league history who makes you hold your breath every time he shoots regardless of where he’s shooting from.

Now, if there’s time to create. Say 15 seconds left. Give me LeBron all day. I know he can hit from anywhere, create his own shot, and has incredible court vision to find the open man.

Certainly couldn't go wrong with Curry, Lebron, Bird, Jordan, Kobe, Reggie, or any of the other all-time greats. I read an article once where Stephen Curry said he ranked himself #2 for game winning shots. He said Jordan was #1 and then himself lol.

Hasn't proven to be super clutch might be a bit of an understatement.

Still go with Jordan all day long. I don't care what the stats say. The stats are misleading. It doesn't count turnovers, missed free throws or passes. And some of those passes he passed on a good look. That's not even getting into the clear difference in defenses the two faced. Says a lot that they have the same number of makes despite Jordan playing way less games.

Lebron has moved himself into the elite category in late game heroics. But Jordan always had the look that he would murder your family to make a last minute bucket. It is the type of killer instinct you see in guys like Gretzky and tiger. It's not a knock on Lebron.

What was Kobe's? If I recall, Kobe's was actually pretty bad because he always took it upon himself to try to score whereas LeBron (until recently) always looked for the open man if he wasn't open or open enough. He was unfairly criticized early in his career for NOT playing hero ball at the end of the games. One of the things that made me like how LeBron plays the game from the get go.

In 2011, ESPN Stats & Information's Alok Pattani dug through 15 years of NBA data—Bryant's entire career, regular season and playoffs—and found that Bryant has attempted 115 shots in the final 24 seconds of a game in which the Lakers were tied or trailed by two or fewer points. He connected on 36, and missed 79 times.

That would be 31%.

That information would be more meaningful if it included a tally of how many times Kobe was fouled on shots taken in the last 24 seconds and if that number is included in the tallies above.

Kobe and D. Wade had some years were refs blew a lot of whistles in their favor at the end of games.

Bucks/Nets should be for the EC championship but will be a great series none the less.

The only thing laughable would be if the Suns somehow lost this game to a 37 year old LeBron with a bunch of scrubs. The series is over if AD doesn’t return, was obvious from the moment he hit the floor that night.

I suspect that will be the biggest challenge the Nets get the entire playoffs on their road to the title.
