Not lately, at least.

He has time to redeem himself. And opportunities will plenty arise.

Do the Lakers ever talk in the locker room? Everything is through the press/media

There isn't such thing as a clutch player IMO, I can't think of a single player in any sport that plays better than they normally do in clutch situations everytime, or most of the time or even half the time. Those that are seen as clutch have had great performances in important games at important moments and people judge them for those moments but all of those players have had their so so or even bad performances in the clutch. That's why IMO there aren't clutch players, just players that handle pressure well enough to perform at their usual selves.

There are however players that are chokers, those that can't handle pressure, see Bonner, Matt.

True, but it's still less time than 27 other teams, tbh

Calm down, Bits. It was just an observation concerning the speed of the temporals.

Duncan 3 (1999 simply doesn't count. we may as well say the 1994 Expos won the World Series)

Kobe 1 (.5 credit for being co-leader with Gasol twice, no credit for riding Shaq's coattails)
