Kyrie is a closer? Back in Cleveland maybe. He sucked in the playoffs. Close this.

Is harden considered a closer? I don’t have the data on it but I thought his reputation was choking in playoffs?

I remember thinking that Kemba seemed to me to be maybe the best player in the league at getting to exactly the spot on the floor where he wanted to take his shot, regardless of what the defense wanted to do.  Chris Paul might be the other guy in the running for that.


I don't know what Kemba's actual clutch stats are.  They're probably not better than Kyrie or Kawhi Leonard.  But I imagine he's up there.
You’ll have to excuse my lengthiness—the reason I dread writing letters is because I am so apt to get to slinging wisdom & forget to let up. Thus much precious time is lost.
