Rob Parker: "Steph Curry, while making BIG shots, did not make any CLUTCH shots in helping the United States win Gold! The score during Steph's last 4 3-pointers: United States was up by 3, up by 6, up by 6, and again up by 6. That means with 3 of those last 4 3's he made, his team was already up by 2 possessions. Did he make big shots? Yes. But if people think he made clutch shots, you can't be more wrong! It's not clutch. Big shots, a barrage, whatever you want to call it. It ain't clutch if it's a two-possession game, it's that simple."

Rob Parker and Martin Weiss react to Steph Curry's huge performance in the closing minutes of Team USA's Gold Medal victory over Serbia at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Rob explains why Curry's multiple 3's do not change the narrative that he struggles to hit clutch shots, as none of his shots were truly "clutch." Martin, however, disagrees with Rob's premises and breaks down why Curry should be praised for his impressive performance in the Gold Medal Game.
