Stop with that clutch bs man. Ain't no such thing as that. Lillard hits those exact same kind of shots in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarters
There are too many talented PGs to cap a top list at 5
“gravity score,” measures how often defenders are really guarding a particular player away from the ball. Korver had the fourth-highest score, behind only Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, and Paul George. The second — “distraction score” — is a related attempt to measure how often a player’s defender strays away from him to patrol the on-ball action. Korver had the lowest such score in the league.
lillard isnt even the best pg on his team
Man you guys love box score stats,and points per game.
Let me help you out.
Korver shooting has a greater impact on a teams defensive game planning than any SG other than Harden/Klay/Jimmy and maaaaybe Monta (I would say monta is more a product of the system and many other gaurds coulld have done what he did in that offence). He's shooting 50% from 3, that has to be account for in a way guys who dribble a lot and make fancy plays don't.
He has the highest gravity effect in the league other than Steph Curry,meaning teams pay more attention to him and devote more resources to stopping him than 90% 2 gaurds.
Zach Lowe had an excellent colunm about this before the season.

The attention and fear he generates is real, and wholy unique.
and while there are many volume scoring 2 guards like Demar Derozan/Joe Johnson/Monta few will actually have a drastic effect on your TEAMS offence. The Raptors offence has not missed a beat after loosing demar.
Lots of guys can score 20 ppg given enough shots, few can give 50% from and create the kind of space that Korver does.

Dallas may have effectively torpedoed their season
