I was an attorney for 35 years, and I interpreted complex legal document successfully over the course of my career. There is nothing wrong with my comprehension skills. LOL!!
As far as your accusation about misrepresentation, I directly quote you most of the time, so you are misrepresenting yourself.
Because you are not clear. That is why. That is on you.

Your statements about the topic since you have been on this site have been consistent in that you deny its existence. The rest of your explanations frankly are gobbledegook.
You caveat your opinions in so many ways that it is hard to know what you are saying sometimes, but with regard to clutch, your predominant opinion, as evidenced in one of your more succinct posts that I quoted, seems to be that it doesn't exist.
As the sample size increases, the player gets more accustomed to those situations and develops better coping mechanisms for the stress. As Price gets to the post season, it would be very possible that he will make some adjustments. But up to now, he has choked.
Saying that "clutch" or "choke" is difficult or impossible to definitively prove is one thing, but concluding that it doesn't exist (which the statheads including you have said is smug and not definitively supportable.
There is a smugness on the part of the statheads who think that stats can prove or disprove whether the mental aspect of the game can negatively or positively impact on performance. Only the competitors can know the look of defeat in an opponent's eyes or demeanor or the look of indomitable spirit.
