Mavsluvr, you are certainly right about the D clamping down near the end. Lots of reasons that happens. And it makes clutch scoring an enormously important thing—one that is significantly different from scoring in general.
But if I’m right about the volatility issue, that knowledge (about 2s being more important than 3s late in games) is much more useful for deciding who should be on the floor than it is for deciding whether a given open look should be taken. Which makes me think Dwight over Maxi and Jalen over, well, anyone not named Luka.
Appreciate your thoughts. Sorry to be whining over the lack of responses.
