Yep totally agree threat clutch is a myth. My biggest issue is "he scores when its close". No one magically gets more talent when a game is close, they either try Harder, get lucky, or fit the "style"(dependent on close games having g a noticeable different style).

This is an issue because if he does try harder in big games, why the hell isn't he trying 100 percent in 100 percent of games?

Garrers point, is that the surprise increase of poi ts from certain to players is no different In a seven game playoff series then any other seven game stretch Throughout the season.

Also I'd like to mention o recently read about a study in a psych class that across the board more memorable actions, personalities, and events are essentially ALWAYS reflected on as important or key, when in reality they are actually no different (and often less) or integral then the average.

Does this mean eye teata are worthless? No, but it certainly means you should corroborate it with an unbiased look at the numbers.
