re: Kobe, CP3, & Dwight vs LeBron, Wade, & Bosh

Let's see what both teams put around them.

And let's see how Mike Brown coaches.

The Hornets have been by far the best team in the NBA in "clutch" situations during the Paul era, which is probably due to him making the right play rather than trying to be the hero. See the game winning assist in the playoffs against LA last year

Jordan wouldve never allowed CP3 and Dwight on his team...

For some reason I don't think we'll see much of that from the Kobe fans who were all over it last year...

how many playoff games does that include? its really hard to be "clutch" when the games dont even matter.

Guess kobe isn't the arrogant a-hole that Jordan was.

I guess thats how theyre gonna spin it TTF

Oh yeah, when can we start shitting on Kobe for making a superteam?

It started pretty early with Lebron last year.

Kobe just needs more help around him to win, that's all.

Ding ding ding. I am not sure what Chris Paul's shooting percentage is personally in the "clutch", but the team performs well by simply making the smart play.

Kobe is awesome, but it is pretty difficult to make a 20-foot fadeaway while triple covered. I am fine with the assassin nickname because his career achievements have garnered him such honors, but he is only about league average in those "clutch" situations. However, it is awesome when he makes it.
