    If you sort by 3P%...

    1) Russell Westbrook
    2) Kyle Lowry
    3) Ricky Rubio
    4) Jason Terry
    5) Kevin Love
    6) Chris Bosh
    7) Paul Millsap
    8) Pau Gasol
    9) Tony Parker
    10) Jose Calderon

    So Lowry really is one of the most clutch 3P shooters. And surprisingly (to me at least), so are Westbrook and Rubio.

    OKC is the clutchest team in the league, not surprised.

    Westbrook is the clutchest player I have seen so far this year, and you have Durant as well.

    Only one person with the Rockets, and it's not Kevin Martin.

    But who created those shots? If a superstar drives past his man and gets double teamed and passes to someone who's wide open, he's the one who created the shot, not the beneficiary.

    13 out of 17 of Bosh's clutch field goals came off assists.

    I think Matt Boner is having a great year shooting the ball again

    FG%? Come on now.

    Go with a legitimate stat to measure shooting: effective FG%.

    1 Jason Terry 0.625
    2 Chris Bosh 0.621
    3 Al Harrington 0.614
    4 Jose Calderon 0.6
    5 Tim Duncan 0.565
    6 Joe Johnson 0.557
    7 Russell Westbrook 0.556
    8 Jarrett Jack 0.55
    9 Kevin Love 0.55
    10 Ricky Rubio 0.55
    11 Paul Millsap 0.529
    12 Tony Parker 0.527
    13 Danny Granger 0.521
    14 Monta Ellis 0.486
    15 Josh Smith 0.479
    16 Pau Gasol 0.477
    17 Kevin Durant 0.471
    18 Chris Paul 0.439
    19 Kyle Lowry 0.423
    20 Carmelo Anthony 0.415
    21 Rudy Gay 0.4
    22 Dirk Nowitzki 0.365
    23 David West 0.364
    24 LaMarcus Aldridge 0.359
    25 Jameer Nelson 0.346
    26 Dwyane Wade 0.333
    27 Tyreke Evans 0.333
    28 Brandon Jennings 0.333
    29 Nick Young 0.333
    30 LeBron James 0.318
    31 Kevin Garnett 0.3
    32 Kobe Bryant 0.295
    33 Jamal Crawford 0.29
    34 Ty Lawson 0.286
    35 O.J. Mayo 0.262
    36 John Wall 0.25

    That said, I was messing around with some clutch stats earlier myself and was astounded at how bad Bryant's been (as well as how many shot he continues to take while being so bad).

    I like how Duncan is number 2 and Parker number 5 --> but apparently they don't qualify as superstars?

    not that i wouldn't have noticed it eventually, but thanks for pointing out this play index+ thing t_mac1. looks like you can only search for one season and not combine them right now but the shot finder has a ridiculous number of options. you can sort down to the second of the game that you want to look before or after. another very nice thing from B-R.com.




    kobe continuing to shoot while bricking is certainly not surprising. but yeah, 28% certainly isn't good.

    another crazy thing was looking at last year's stats. westbrook had by far the most "clutch" FGA at 149 and yet number 2 was durant with 130. 2 guys on the same team who each took more than rose and kobe. wade and lebron combined only took 140.

    He is a role player... well he should be in order to WIN IT BIG.
    Hierarchy is needed.
