Can anyone explain why we need this and what we can gain from it? I just cant see the point of it.
Better feeling of a real BB-game (with clutch moments), and hence better BB-managing game.

Wont your best scorer still take most shots as it is now? And saying he should take even more shots would probably just end in him missing a lot more shots?
I don't know what your point being, but I'm sure you didn't read my explanation.

Here is the summary of all that (again) - in real-BB there are:
1) Clutch moments.
2) Clutch players - who play better at those moments (shoot, drive, defend or whatever...).
3) Clutch minutes special play - going to the best clutch-moments' player or using him as a decoy and going to another player.
4) Clutch minutes' defence plan - going "harder" on the clutch player, keeping defence stand, or changing it.

This game should adapt those features.

here is an report about "hero ball" or those clutch player, since you bring up Bryant here if the lakers score the whole game like Bryant in clutch moment they will roughly score 50 points a game :)

Also the book "Scorecasting - The Hidden Influences Behind Sports" would be intresting, and kill some myths.(or maybe some papers of the Sloan Sports Analytics Conference conference)

Just VOID.
There is no connection between the type of play used (ISO or other) to the dedicated player to take the shot.

A ISO for Bryant will work better than one for Meta-World-Piece.
A play designed for a pick-and-roll where Bryant takes the shot will work better than the same play design for Matt Barnce.
[For example]
