Saw this question asked on Around The Horn today and wanted to pose the same question to you. What say you, CCS? Is Rose the most clutch player in today's NBA?

As long as he´s not at the FT-line! 
I would put at least Kobe, Durant and Anthony ahead of him! Chris Paul is also clutch as hell!

Rose isn't the most clutch, but he has to be up there on the list. I'd take Kobe, Durant, Dirk, and CP3 above him to name a few.
I'd say he's more clutch than Lebron though.

With the ball in his hands? Paul
To shoot the ball on a last possession? Melo

Today? Maybe. This season, Maybe. A lot of clutch players have fallen off this season and even LeBron is doing okay in the 4th this year(just not quite gold standard).
But damn, Rose has been hitting buzzer beaters in the last 4 games like a madman. 1st qtr, 2ndqtr, bam bam bam... plus the last minute shots that are sinking for him. Yes, he belongs in the conversation.

A year or two ago I would have said Kobe, but currently, Rose is certainly at the top of the list of players that come to mind!

I think they said Rose was 3-3 on last second shots or something like that.

He's only taken 3 for the season? Guess that's a testament to how we never have to put ourselves in that position.

Rose isn't my answer... but these numbers are interesting.
these numbers don't include the last week. Got this from another forum when I was googling something

3-3 on shots taken with less than 5 seconds in the game. Last night was his first buzzer-beating game winner of his career.

Of course he is one of the most clutch players right now.I can't say if he is #1,#2 or #3.You can't rate this.It is only the guys who can make it often and the guys who can't.Drose is one of them who can.
For sure he is more clutch than Wade.But I can't tell if he is more clutch than Durant Kobe or Dirk.

You can thanks the officials for that. But it's off topic.
