7)Gilbert Arenas

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.

Then again, Barron has made 30 so popular so you might be right

Arenas has a lot more than 2 gamewinners. I wouldn't say he's the best FT shooter, but when the adrenaline is flowing and he's on the move, he's the best.

I agree with most of what you said, but these 2 sentences are pretty contradictory. He didn't have to take that 3 from so deep, he just did because he knew he could make it. And that was a shot that could end their season if he didn't make it. So I'd say there was some big pressure there. However, what Lebron did to him later kinda hurts his case here.

Are you lames forgetting about Wade? He is the most clutch player in the NBA and to me it's close but not debateable. Playoffs, regular season, anytime you need a bucket somehow you give it to him. He will make the right decision and get the bucket somehow even if he doesn't score himself. Wade is the last second guy. Arenas and Kobe are damn close.
