@People saying clutch is overrated/Royce doesn't have a big role in clutch time anyways
I think considering what has happened to this team for three years, the pressure that is on them, and the fact that they are most likely going to be remembered for choking during big moments, we cannot have guys on the floor who are scared of the moment. I really do think this team has the yips. They make so many mental mistakes down the stretch when they are playing good games. If one guy is afraid of the ball or the shot out there, I think that spreads. If Royce panics or won't take a shot that puts more pressure on Mitchell, who responds by also panicking and trying to force something. There's no reason this team couldn't make the Conference Finals if they avoid Phoenix, from a talent perspective, but they have zero confidence in themselves and a major fear of failure. I know advanced stats might say Royce's percentages are better, but House's confidence and energy is a major factor here too. It's something they've got to at least consider.
