Amazing game. Westbrook starting for clippers right off the bat.
And now in college today, Iowa beat Michigan State 112-106 in OT.
Tatum is unreal. Horrible game and just drills two late 3s including a game winner.
Tatum played that like a Finals game. Luckily, Philly gave up a 23-3 run to Derrick White and Al Horford lol so he had a chance to hit the winner.
Credit Tucker Boynton:
Since the NBA started tracking play-by-play data in 1996, there are 155 players who have attempted 25+ FGs to tie or take the lead in the final 24 seconds of the 4th quarter (playoffs included).
Jayson Tatum ranks 1st out of 155 with a 51.7% field goal percentage.
Some of that credit goes to coaching that gets good shots. I think Jaylen Brownâs shooting % in the same situation is pretty good, too.
Hereâs a related stat. LOL Westbrick.

isnât lol lebron more appropriate here?
Itâs LOL both. I think the historical data also justifies saying lol Kobe, but I havenât looked at it recently.
But why does Westbrook have so many more 3PA than anyone else on the list?
He has a massive ego. Imagine the guy actually just played to his strengths.
But yeah⌠Pierce and Kobe both have an abysmal clutch shooting % IIRC.
Weird that dinwiddie is second in made fgs there.
Still think Kobe was the most clutch end of game shooter in history. Probably raised his shooting percentage by 10-20% on end of game shots.
Problem was everyone knew he was taking the shot so he ended up taking shots of such shit quality that his shot he normally makes 8%of the time and was now 25% was still a shit shot.
When someone looked at this stuff several years ago, I remember Kobe had zero game-winning assists while Pierce had the most.
Iâm not sure if Jrue is the GOAT clutch defender or Booker is just a choker.
