LEBRON JAMES
Did LeBron James choke in the 2008 playoffs?
To find out if LeBron James choked, let’s compare his regular season with the playoff game.
LeBron James took 359 three-point shots during the entire 2007-2008 season and 70 three-point shots in the 2008 playoff game. Since the attempted shots are different, we’ll use percentage to compare the two.

CALCULATE PERCENTAGE
During the regular season, LeBron James made 113 of his attempted 359 three-point shots.
Percentage:359
113= 0.315 = 31.5%
During the playoff, LeBron James made 18 of his attempted 70 three-point shots.
Percentage:70
18= 0.257 = 25.7%
