Jazz 2017/18 Playoff Bus! All Aboard!

Clutch is defined as the final 5 minutes w/ the game being within 5 points either way. I'm not saying Ball = Lonzo, but the blind railing on one player, especially when that player has been playing well, is stupid. If that makes me a pedantic moron, so be it. Mitchell's impressiveness hasnt been with his quality of clutch play, at least in terms of efficiency, but his audacity and aggressiveness during those moments. Neither rookie has been Lillard in the clutch.

And i use NBA Miner for clutch stats, you can go look them up.

So what you are NOT saying is that Ball has had like 7 or 8 opportunities to score "in the clutch" in his entire career. Whereas, Donovan, who generally only plays the last halves of the 4th quarter gets a good portion of his 6 points EVERY 4th quarter in that time period that could be considered "in the clutch." To even make the comparison between the two is dishonest. That doesn't even count his turning 7 point games to 12 point games.

I mean, you can look at the stats yourself if you really want to. You dont have to make stuff up.
 
I think people are overstating the Spurs demise. As long as LMA is playing, they wont fall out of the playoffs.
Its not their demise, its their schedule. They have 7 games against teams fighting for the 3-8 seed in the West, then 7 other games against other playoff teams. Their schedule is Brutal. They need to probably win at least 6 of those games to make the playoffs.
