I laugh at these young kids who want to talk about clutch and bad mouth Lebron James.
How old was Michael Jeffery Jordan when he won his 1st championship? I could have sworn James went to the cross over, lost the French defense,Jumped off his left foot went glass with the bank shot with under a minute left After that he sank 2 free throws to lock down the game with a 4 point lead. James is the most disrespected player in all of pro sports
Least clutch player I would say Rivers or Romo

Least clutch player I would say Rivers or Romo I don't think you can be clutch when you perform below your baseline when the game is on the line. If James is averaging 12 points through 3 quarters and then scores only 6 in the 4th as the team they're beating comes charging back...I don't think that's clutch. Perhaps unfair to players who set a high baseline, but such is life. Also take a look at last year's finals. Same thing.

Any discussion of "least clutch" has to include this guy:

Not disagreeing KJ has been clutch in the past, & he did come up with a couple shots late. My point is he had some incredibly questionably shots he missed with dudes wide open, & some bad passes leading to TO's. That game shouldn't have been that close, if he played smarter ball.
I'm a fan of his too. Just think he wants to be "the guy" so bad sometimes, he forgets how to play team ball.
