"Chris Mannix: I'm going to declare co-winners in the "best" category: Artest and Trevor Ariza (Rockets). We have all dissected the Artest acquisition from every angle, but with the calendar about to turn to 2010, the Lakers have a solid offense, the top-ranked defense and, oh yeah, the best record in basketball. You can't argue with that."

My radical position on crunch time performers - TrueHoop Blog - ESPN
(Henry, if one is going to use stats to prove why Kobe isn't that great in the clutch, then they should also include the WIN percentages of the player's teams in those clutch situations. Yet, there is nothing telling us if the teams won or loss when comparing Kobe. Doesn't that matter? Most? Especially from a person who always references the basketball gods. Do us that favor Henry (and John Schumann, and 82games.com). I'm not going to dispute your numbers, and I think your argument is valid. I also don't know what the Lakers' win percentage is in these situations. But you owe it to your readers to give us the most crucial piece of information of these situations. Does the team win?)
