Now that Yao is out for the season, who is our next most-clutch (clutchest?) player?

Imagine that the Rockets are down two points and there's 20 seconds on the game clock. Who should be holding the rock?

Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets!Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets! Go Rockets!

Personally

I think Brooks + Lowry would be a great guard combo for the final possession. Both can create their own plays, and Lowry is especially skilled at finishing around the basket and drawing the contact. However, his FT shooting makes him a more risky choice at the stripe.

Brian Cook isn’t an option haha

Final shot I'd go Brooks..

however, in the forth quarter if we were down by a few buckets, I believe our clutch 3 guy is definitely Shane Battier. Look at Game 3 or 4(i can’t remember off the top of my head) comeback win against portalnd. The announcers pulled up some info on the rockets record when losing in the 4th quarter. in like the past few years they had only won 5 come from behind games and a bunch of losses. But that didn’t matter, Battier was on FIRE in that 4th quarter. There is nothing i don’t like about Battier. All around good player. He showed us that yesterday as well as everyday on the court.
