[@brandonmartin7713]

@jonnyarnett First I want to say You are easily the greatest you tube basketball historian or the second greatest tied with Wilt Chamberlain Archives and Mr. Clayton Crowley. But I want to bring out two players that most people would not put above Michael. It seems like as you go up the latter of the clutchest players list ever it should encompass a player's whole career. I noticed you put up some Magical moments for Magic, but you also highlighted when he made a vital mistake in the Finals against Boston being called Tragic Johnson for a summer. I noticed that you highlighted MJ's brilliance for those 6 championships, but you didn't bring out the last game against the Magic when he came back and shockingly lost the ball at a crucial time, and truly didn't have a JORDAN game when the Bulls needed him the most. Their are two players in history that have amazingly shined more times than MJ WHEN EVERYTHING WAS ON THE LINE AND SUCEEDED. I I present two gentlemen( one you recognized fully, and one you had his name. #2 Mr. SAM Jones..... In a legendary recorded moment you can find in the you tube world, Mr. Russell reveals something shocking about HIM. He says their were 7 TIMES if a shot is not made the Celtics go home. Mr. Russell let it be known Mr. Sam Jones NEVER MISSED.....It is possibly the only perfect clutch shot making when needed the most more than 5 times of any player in NBA history. #1 Mr. William Felton Russell. Playing in 10 7 games during the late 50s and 60s actually says a lot about the competition the fabled Celtics faced. They obviously were not unbeatable. Since teams with legendary players themselves pushed them to the brink. Not having steals, block shots, or even the differentiation of offensive rebounds recorded during Mr. Russell's time leaves no Statistical numbers that cause our Jaws to drop.....BUT WHAT is very eye opening is 10-0 in Game 7's. That is hard to beat. I am curious what his stats( that we can see) are in those 10 games. One of them will most likely be otherworldly ( rebounds). Mj's career was a 15 year career. Mr. Russell's career was 13 years. In those 13 years it is hard to find even one closeout game that he didn't do great in even if they lost. ( I can't count the Hawks series. He played severely hurt only 20 minutes.) Only the 76ers closeout game in his first year coaching and even in that game he had 21 rebounds, 7 assists and who knows how many blocks and steals. Thank u for considering these views.

I think this list was pretty solid, but I really think Curry should be on it (he definitely should receive his flowers in the clutch time), he is the guy with most points in 4th quarter playoffs, has record of most points in 4th quarter in a finals game, Curry has a TS% of 63.4 in 4th quarter on playoffs (that I think is the best efficiency by a player in this situation in history), averages 32.6/7/6.4 on 47%/42%/92% shooting in 5 game sevens, Steph made 81 consecutive 4th quarter and OT free throws from the 2015 to 2019 playoffs, had his clutch performances at 2014 playoffs, 2015 playoffs (mostly in finals), 2016 WCF (had 3 injuries), 2017 playoffs, 2018 playoffs and finals, 2019 playoffs and finals, 2022 playoffs and finals, 2023 1st round, 2024 CPOY, 2024 Olympics. Some raw examples: 2016 WCF Game 6 where his three tied the game with 2:35 left in the 4th when the Warriors were facing elimination on the road 2018 NBA Finals game 1 where his three point play gave the Warriors the lead with 23 seconds left in the 4th 2016 WCSF Game 5 where he hit a three with 23 seconds left to put the Warriors up by 5 2017 WCF Game 1 where his three pointer with 1:45 left tied the game 2015 NBA finals game 1 where his two point jumper gave the Warriors a two point lead with 50 seconds left 2013 WCSF Game 1 where he stole the ball and scored with a little over a minute left in OT to tie the game The one against NO in 2015. His layup against the cavs in 2015 G1. His OT performance against the blazers in one of the 2016 games. A crazy amount in the end of the OKC series. He was very clutch against the spurs in G1, 2017. Clutch in G7 against the rockets in 2018. He scored 20+ pts in the 4th qtr in that G6 vs HOU in 2019. He had clutch shots vs the blazers in 2019. He made a huge three to tie the game against TOR, G5. 2022 was just a series of clutch performances. Steph is clutch, but he usually doesn’t need a buzzer beater because warriors games aren’t usually close by one possession in the last minute of the game.

Hell, Kerr _benched him_ at the end of the France game but LeBron "ice in his veins" James subbed himself back in (only to do the aforementioned standing around) There are other things I'm missing but this is literally just off the top of my head.

For example in 2016 finals, Lebron came up CLUTCH with his blocking shot against Igoudala, that's definitely clutch moment. Soo Lebron had numerous clutch moments that people don't realise and I think he should've make that list.

I get those clutch instances for sure, but the question is just how much does it take to undo 2007 Finals, 2010 ECF and 2011 Finals? I just can't justify ignoring those, because thats literally potentially 3 more championships if LBJ didn't choke. Thats not anything minor.

LeBron Not making the top 10 is outrageous imo, he’s made countless buzzer beaters, game tying shots, defensive plays in the regular season.

He lost the finals against a fairly experienced spurs team but the cavs shouldn’t even have made it past the first round if it weren’t for LeBron. LeBron had the 2011 meltdown but Magics 1986 finals meltdown was also mentioned. In the 2015 finals he was the leader in all major categories for both teams while missing Kyrie and Love, Igudala won the finals mvp for holding him to a near 35 point tripple double. He had the greatest 3 game stretch being down 3-1 to the best regular season team of all time, his 2018 playoff run speaks for itself and until 2022 he has never been beaten before the second round.

I mean Jonny literally said if they had a really bad playoff series, that significantly drops their rankings. Lebron had arguably the greatest finals dropoff in nba history (2011) and also had a pitiful playoff performance against the celtics in 2010. You can make an argument for the 2006 Pistons being one of the best defensive teams of all time, but the Pistons in 2007 were nowhere near the best defensive team of all time, as Ben Wallace was a huge reason for why they were a good defensive team, and he was gone by 2007.

Isiah also took a beating during these performances, and what’s maybe forgotten most about him is just how tough he was. He didn’t back down from anyone, and he’s got the scars to prove it. I often wonder why so many dislike Isiah so intently. I think much of it comes town to him making people uncomfortable. He’s good looking, dead f****** smart, but also grew up on the south side of Chicago, and never fully escaped the mentality inculcated within him there as a child. Therefore, few understood Isiah. I’m not even sure he fully came to terms with the person he became. And when people don’t understand something, it makes them uncomfortable. It’s called cognitive dissonance. And Zeke dealt with his fair share of it from fans. They can often be unnecessarily cruel in their criticism of him too. Kinda sad given all he overcame-their lack of empathy. But I personally think this makes him even more interesting . He’s a deeply complex, flawed, and fascinating human being. People like Zeke don’t exist in the NBA anymore. They’re not allowed to. And it’s a deeply profound loss to all who love great basketball. Nice list overall, but a few of those players listed were about as interesting as watching plants grow. I suppose plants growing slowly can be considered tantamount to being clutch….

Then why is that same standard not set for someone like Kobe, whose numbers in the finals and in game 7s are significantly worse. Than there’s his performance against Detroit in 2004, blowing a 3-1 lead in 2006 and leaving his teammates out to dry in game 7, losing in 2008 and in game 6 by a record margin, going 6-24 in another game 7 in 2010, and getting swept by Dallas in 2011 and again getting obliterated in the final elimination game and outplayed by Jason Terry and JJ Barea (which people give LeBron metric tons of crap for). That’s why they’re mad, cuz there was very obviously a bias here, even if you wanna put Lebron lower

[@AbiV31]

@@infinitymixtapes9562 I see what you're saying. I think Kobe gets plenty of hate his way. But the truth still stands that Kobe beat more 50win teams than LBj, whole being the sole focus of most defenses, and carrying the majority of the scoring load, while also having less stacked teams than LBj. That same team that swept Kobe, beat them Heatles, and I think we can all agree that Wade outplayed LBj in that serieso

[@infinitymixtapes9562]

@@AbiV31 I respect this comment, Kobe beating more 50 wins teams from 2008-2010 than Magic Johnson in his entire career is a huge plus to his case. But we can’t ignore the fact that out of the 30 50win teams Kobe defeated, 18 of them was with Shaq as a teammate. I’m not one of those idiots that says Kobe got carried but we can’t act like Kobe brute forced his way through those teams when he had the most dominant force in basketball as a running mate. That’s a luxury greats like LeBron and Jordan never had, especially early in their careers. Also trust me, as a Heat fan, you will NEVER see me defend what LeBron did in 2011. I only brought it up because Kobe also had a poor showing against the same team with a squad that won back to back, it just gets overshadowed cuz LeBron’s failure was much louder, on a bigger stage, before he won anything and after that whole “not 1, not 2” nonsense

[@AbiV31]

@@infinitymixtapes9562 that's another thing, it feels like LBj tries to keep himself relevant. Like he has had great teammates, but for some reason everyone wants to claim that he's carried all of them. He's had tons of talent around him, but the truth is that his playing style doesn't lend itself to be top tier.

[@Davivd2]

Switch Magic and Bird and it's not a bad list. But Larry could make it happen to win the game on both ends of the court. Larry could, and has on a few occasions, tell a guy to his face: "I'm getting the ball in the corner, I'm shooting a turnaround right in your face, and there's not a damn thing you can do about it." I think it would be cool to see a separate video for the non shot creators. Big Shot Bob and Steve Kerr type players throughout NBA history. Also, Chauncy Billups should be on the honorable mention list. But you can only fit so many names on screen, so I get it. I would put him over Nick the Quick though. Shaq.....Shaq has no business being on that list. If you can't make your free throws at the end of the game, you can't be a clutch player. As much as Shaq talks about how he makes them when it counts, eh.....I've seen plenty of late game misses from Shaq at the line. He just got lucky enough to not lose a playoff series over it.

​@@onlyfacts3178you are brain dead. Kobe has so many clutch moments in playoffs. Shaq has 1 ring if not for kobe coming up huge in their threepeat. He lead the league in clutch scoring all 3 years. You just look at a very specific stat the media told you over and over to make the case for LeBron while ignoring the mountain of evidence to the contrary. You are probably a child who never watched the games either. Just to look at a couple of out of context stats. LeBron has a negative plus minus in the finals.. That's just embarrassing. The most famous clutch shots of his career were made by his teammates. He passes up game winners. That famous Jr moment started with LeBron passing to George Hill instead of shooting over Steph curry because he is fragile in the clutch. The last two nuggets series are some of the most unclutch playoff moments you will ever see. The Olympics were another choke job just like the 08 Olympics once again, kobe and Steph saved his legacy as he was busy choking it up. 07, 11 and 14 were all time embarrassing finals as well.

@onlyfacts3178 Luka isn't more clutch than Kobe or LeBron. Maybe he can be but from where he is now, no way. And yes Kobe was a top 5 best player in the NBA. He became the best player in 2004ish or 05. And though there were better guards than him (Vince Carter and Tmac) he was still the best guard in the West and at least 5th or 6th best player overall.
