LeBron now has more postseason go-ahead/game-tying FGM in final 24 sec of Q4/OT than Kobe (8 to 7). And much more efficient (19 FGA vs 28).

LeBron James now has same number of career game-winning buzzer-beaters in playoffs as Michael Jordan (3).

LeBron James has taken 10 go-ahead shots in final 5 sec. of 4Q or OT in playoffs. He's made 6. Michael Jordan was 5-of-11 in his career.

Over the last 10 years, the only players with more than 1 game-winning buzzer-beater in the playoffs are LeBron James and Paul Pierce.

LeBron James makes his 3rd career game-winning postseason buzzer beater – most by any player over last 15 years


All of these stats have been stolen from reddit without shame.

Illogical, emotional responses are far more easy to make.

He missed a "clutch" shot Friday in the loss. Your point?

Yep, from a 2013 article

quote:

On game-tying or go-ahead field goals in the final 24 seconds of the fourth quarter or overtime of playoff games, LeBron is shooting 42.1 percent (7-of-17) while Kobe checks in at 25 (7-of-28). Jordan topples all with a 50 percent clip (9-of-18).

This is such a small sample size that it really does not mean anything to me. LeBron is obviously an all-time great, but I am not going who is judge who is better at making a "clutch" shot based on making a handful of shots in the playoffs. I would be more than happy to have Jordan, LeBron, or Kobe take the last shot for my team.

Jordan is the best.
Hell his teams were so good the games weren't even that close to need a buzzer beater to get a win.
