Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here, but confidence and poise can mean the same thing.

As you stated, there's no such thing as "clutch", but there are players who perform as well as normal in clutch situations because they have confidence in themselves. You could also say they have poise in this example.

Now, whether or not this is what "poise' will be in the game, I can't speculate on. That's for Marcus to say.
