Re: Now who do you trust most with the last shot?
1)Kobe Bryant
2)Dwyane Wade
3)Lebron james
4)Carmelo Anthony
5)Dirk Nowitzki
6)Allen Iverson
7)Gilbert Arenas
8)Steve Nash
9)Paul Pierce
10)Chauncey Billups
Arenas has made 2 buzzerbeating 3s in tie games. If he misses, they go to OT so he hasn't really made any in must make situations. Last time he had one of those, he missed two FTs costing the Wizards their season. In fairness to him, he made a deep 3 that sent it to OT with 3 seconds left, but again, no one expects him to make a last second desperation heave so no pressure. He is expected to make his FTs, and shots in which he has plenty of time to set up in games where he's down 1-2 points. I can't trust a guy to make a shot that misses clutch FTs. Don't get me wrong. Arenas is having an MVP like season. But if my team is down by 2 with 5 seconds left, I'd take all of those guys ahead of Gilbert, because he hasn't come through in the high pressure situations.
