Show Notes
The Boston Celtics, with a strong regular season record, struggle in clutch moments, ranking twentieth in games within five points in the final five minutes. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Lakers lead the league in such situations. Historical data suggests that clutch struggles may not hinder playoff runs, as teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves have shown. Dominating non-clutch regular-season games proves a stronger playoff predictor, and every NBA champion in the past twenty-nine seasons was better in non-clutch games than in close ones.
