It's called taking a shot where you're most comfortable with it. If you were Shaq, would you like to take two free throws with the game on the line? I don't think so...

I have been a big fan of his ever since he debuted with the spurs. He is fearless and can score..Can't remember last time tp made a game winning shot.

Hasn't watched Spurs over last 11 years.

As for half way through the 08/09 season, Parker had made 6. That doesn't include the 01-02 and 02-03 seasons though, where Parker had at least 2 that I can remember against Dallas and Utah.

This obviously doesn't include 09/10, 10/11 or 11/12 seasons either. I am at work and can't be bothered trying to search for newer stats.

Edit: Even in the last season just gone, Parker was a top 15 clutch performer.

Did you watch the game, mate? There were 4 seconds left on the clock with Patty inbounding. He passed it to a big who tried to post up but found Patty open with just a second left, passed it to him, Patty had no time to drive and took a deep three (catch and shoot) and nailed it to seal the game. ing epic.

Yeah, it was a nice play. A Spurs play I have seen them run many times over the years.
