That picture is funny until you realize that he values the fourth quarter, so it makes sense. He also values winning in pressure situations, so it also makes sense. Therefore, the picture isn't as funny.

 

I personally like Skip and watch him every week. He and Steven A are the only good daily analysts for the most part on ESPN.

All 48min of the basketball game are equal. Yes, there are moments later in the game which have higher pressure and seem to be extra-important, however they are just as important as the beginning of the 3rd quarter when half the stadium is still getting food from the concession stands, Therefoir, give me the olayer who diominates through the 1st 3 quarters and only occasionally comes up big in the 4th over the reverse of that.

 

I don't really see that logic when it comes to LeBron, though. Throughout his playoff career he's had so many big clutch moments even before this year...hitting 2 game winners in his 1st ever playoff series, Gane 5 against Detroit in 2007, Game 6 against Boston in 2008, Games 2 and 5 against Orlando in 2009, a few games against Chicago in 2010, Game 5 against Boston in 2011 and Games 2, 4 and 5 against Chicago that same post-season.

 

The only real choke jobs I had a big problem with in LeBron's career was Game 5 against Boston in 2010, and Games 2-6 against Dallas in 2011. Both had nothing to do with him folding in the 4th after a stellar 1st 3 quarters...it was him completely mailing it in the entire game.

They aren't the smartest analysts, but they are SO entertaining to watch them together. They both have such different, yet similarly argumentitive personalities, so their debates are so firey and fun to observe. Any time I get the chance I make sure to watch First Take.
