One game. That's all I'm going to say. For the sake of NBA basketball and for the sake of my fantasy team, I hope Rose bounces back.
Yeah, the jumper is still horrible, but Chicago was really good on offense when he played. Plus I generally give scorers a little bonus when they play on such slow as molasses teams like Chicago. There's a huge gap in efficiency between half court and transition Take away the transition baskets from Harden, and he'd also look much worse in terms of raw numbers.

I really don't know why you're having so much trouble understanding this very simple example. When Kobe and Shaq played together, Kobe was a clutch playoff player. When Kobe shouldered the offense after Shaq left, he wasn't. There's nothing wrong with using qualifiers. Again, this is a very simple concept. You cannot fail to lead your team out of the first round and still be considered a "clutch" playoff performer. Think about it intuitively....how can a "clutch" player never win? Can't happen.
