Clutch Shooting

Forget what the analytics say. Analytics will tell you that LeBron is a better clutch shooter than Kobe. Regardless of that stat, the entire world, including former and current NBA players, know that Kobe is way more clutch than LeBron.

This is not to say that LeBron is not clutch. This is more of highlighting how clutch Kobe was throughout his career. There were games in which Kobe had an awful field goal percentage throughout the entire game, however, he made up for it by making shots when it mattered most.

Some players are just born with that clutch gene. Kobe was born with it. Every situation he’s been in, he’s been clutch.

When people think of Kobe Bryant, they think of him as a killer, and as an assassin. There’s a reason why he has a reputation for being clutch. With that being said, Kobe is not only the better clutch shooter than LeBron, but he’s one of the best all-time in clutch shooting.
