Clutch

[BadWolf]

How does this rating work?
what's the neutral level, the level at which are players normally clutch - ie the level that has no effect on performences
to which time of the game does this apply? only last minute or two of close games?

i remember some clutch points that were calculated for the performence in last 2 minutes of nba games... dose anyone know where to find them

[bigh0rt]

Clutch time, if I'm not mistaken, is calculated as:

"4th quarter or overtime, less than 5 minutes left, neither team ahead by more than 5 points"

At least that's how 82games does it.

[BadWolf]

82games.com has it as

under two minutes left in the game, neither team is ahead by more than three points.

edit: the use different definitions

the last five minutes of the fourth quarter or overtime when neither team has a lead of more than five points.

This is nice info to know. Actually it is expected but just different variations.

the clutch system probably doesn't work like that... in fact i would expect there to be no one in the game to have 0 clutch rating
