I'm no expert, but I think it's called "losing stupidly."
Now where have I seen that recently? I can't quite remember.
aye man is that choking what Harden is doing there? Clanking free throws and step back 3s, stepping out of bounds? CP3 losing the ball and getting a technical? Thought I'd ask an expert

Get in here now pussy
Rockets choke it away again
![]()
Damn, we should have listened to him, tbh![]()
Rockets are in such a bad situation, and I love it. Those back to back les in the 90's without going against Jordan is biting them in the ass now that they can't get past the GOAT team.
What?!
The Rockets are gonna be in cap soon with that terrible CP3 contract, but in no way does there back-to-back le runs from the 1990's have anything to do with it.
Harden/Paul being choking dogs, again, and Darryl Morey's poor team building are to blame.
Having to resort to moving your undersized, sixth man to the starting lineup (at SF no less) told you they weren't long for the playoffs.
Harden's season - long "hero balling" and offensive output covered up a lot of the mess that is their roster, right now.
Everyone will just blame Harden (a few will criticize CP3), yet is Morey ever, ever gonna have his feet to the fire?
Spurs choked. I can admit that. But we weren't gonna ring with a back court of Mills and Forbes, anyhow.
You have no idea what "choking" in bball means.
Spurs lost a gm7 on the road against a team that was playing better basketball all year long.
A gm7 that Nuggets were favored to win by 7+.
Rockets lost an elimination gm6,with the best player of the other team injured,on their own home court while being a heavy 7pts favorite.
THAT is choking.
The stupid stuff you want to tell yourself. SMH
Spurs had two all stars who have been around and should've been hungry to put away these paper tigers. To say nothing of a GOAT nominee coach and guard with a championship pedigree in the mix.
They choked in Game 4 and then again in Game 7. They were not the underdogs. They were ahead for a reason.
Don't know what ancient history has to do with any of this, tbh.
Spurs were ahead cause the Nuggets were inexperinced,young and green.
The experience factor went away from the moment we lost the home game.
Then the "paper tigers" realized that they are the #2 seed and we were the 7 seed.If we choked in the series it was at gm2 when we were up by 20 twice and didn't finish them.
In game 7 we played a terrible,horrible game and if someone attempted a choke job it was the Nuggets who allowed the Spurs to cut it to 2 positions in the 4th.
We had two all stars-one from the East though,who didn't make the All star THIS year.They had one all star in Jokic.
Their all star played better throughout the 7 games than ours.They were better at game7.We lost.It's as simple as that.
But they are facts. Lamarcus showed up that game with a huge 35 points while harden checked out .
He didn't handle the business against the Nuggets. That's what we're talking about.
You tell yourself BS. Nuggets were the two seed, and the effective WCF was still scheduled as Warriors/Rockets. Even with Durant out, they won't be favorites. The two seed stuff is cosmetic other than it's given them an extra valuable home game that they needed to beat the Spurs/Blazers in seven games.
The experience factor never went away. They were on their heels and the Spurs let them off the hook twice. Just call a choke a choke, bruh, instead of trying to make the Nuggets out to be some great team. They're akin to an overvalued 5 seed in March Madness getting some luck and making a deep run. They're not real contenders; they never were/are.
Holy you really are a terrible poster just like everyone on this board says you are.
Who the cares if the Rockets and the Warriors were the two best teams? Who the cares if Denver is not the favorite with Durant out?
You think there is a possible comparison between the Curry Dubs and the '19 Spurs? Were you dropped on your head as a child?
We had ONE point guard,ZERO small forwards and terrible defense ALL.YEAR.LONG.
We were 7th tied to 8 for a reason.We were simply not that good.Good enough to make the playoffs.Experienced enough to put up a fight and catch them off guard and steal the series.We'd give Portland a run for their money as well.We were underdogs against Denver,we'd be underdogs against Portland.Those are facts.
The fact that Nuggets are not contenders is irrelevant.They were better than us.In comparison to us they played better November to April.So we didn't choke.
If your poor,narrow,basketball mind can't understand those facts go watch ping pong or something.
Or maybe you want to post another thread on how we are gonna make the WCF while we are just 1 game ahead in our series and jinx whatever chance we had to .
You said THIS on your own thread after game 4
https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/sho...91#post9784091
You mother er knew we were in trouble the moment we lost game 4.
Yet here you are now posting that we choked game7 with your beautiful basketball mind.
FOH
^Yep. 2019 Spurs sucked. They're lucky to have made the playoffs, let alone steal 3 games in the series.
Yea, I called Game 4 a choke at the time, idiot.
That you think I care about the assessment of your fellow unnamed ST gots.
At your meltdown, too.
Go ahead and name Denver's SF?
That's what I thought, bruh. We lost on a simple top of the arc pic n' roll combined with choking at the offensive end.
Torrey Craig you ignorant,worthless piece of crap.As simple as that.A d leaguer SF is the simplest change Malone does in game 4 and just like that our game plan and home court goes to .Cause we don't have an actual SF in the team and we have to game plan around it.
And if you think we choked on game 4 then say we choked on game 4 on our homecourt you idiot.
Make another one of your informative,well thought out threads and enlighten us.
Either way we didn't choke on game7 and this is what this thread was about.
Get it? Got it? What a ...
