This is inspired by the account on instagram that posts videos about the greatest players in oddly specific situations. Instead of discussing the general greats of the game, who are some players that were elite in strangely particular situations.
Some examples are Jimmy Butler in the playoffs, Shaun Livingston taking a middy, TJ Warren in the bubble, anyone being defended by PG for a game winner etc.
