As in the Laker will get through the Western Conference and then lose in the NBA Finals?
Shaq got swept in his first trip to the Finals, dumbass. You wanna call him a choker too? And Lebron because of last year? You're a dumb- and you don't know what choking means. Losing and choking are two different things.

Mavs let settle win because it was ther last home game ever, its obvious, who lets jones would not be taking last min shots to wint the game. Besides Dirk will wet lakers and Phil Jackson.

Finally, someone who understands what the term means. It means losing a game or series that you clearly SHOULD have won. Like the Yankees losing to the Red Sox, or the Mavs losing to the Heat, and even the Patriots losing to the Giants. Those are chokes.
a good example of choking is a #1 seed losing to a #8 seed.
a good example of "wtf your never ever gonna recover from this for the rest of your life" choking is a #1 seed getting SWEPT by a #8 seed.
Shaq and lebron won playoffs games to reach the finals isn't it? How do those two compare with Pau? Thank you
And I believe you must be twelve for resorting to insult to show your toughness or try to prove your point.![]()
If you remember those seasons the grizzlies were rolling, their coach was COY and nobody (except maybe you) thought a 50 wins team was going to be swept. Do you recall how the grizzlies were dominating other good teams in the reg season? Would you say that winning a game was too much to ask?
If you win 50 and 49 games and can't manage to win a game on your home floor it's f'ing chocking
it was never a matter of the grizzlies winning the series, but the least a 50 win team can do is win ONE playoff game in 8 tries.
That 2003-04 playoffs were the first post season games the Memphis Grizzlies (including Vancouver years) had in their franchise history. And, they met up the defending world champions who had won their last 11 games going into the playoffs. And, meanwhile the Grizz came into the post season losing their last four games, all to Western Conference playoff teams (Lakers, Phoenix, Dallas, and Minnesota) and 6 of their last 7 games. They beat some of the good teams early on in the season and won the games they were supposed to later in the season. They were hardly some juggernaut 50 game win team that were unbeatable. And, maybe people didn't expect they'd get swept. But, no one was surprised when they were.
A. It's still not choking if you're losing to a better team.
B. Even if the team (Gizzlies) lost, why hang it all on Gasol? Was he playing alone? Did he perform horribly compared to the rest of his team?
C. If Shaq and Lebron didn't win home games in those series I mentioned, you would have to call them chokers according to your definition.
"san antonio spurs" is just a hater. and he's a canadian. what a terrible combination.
I'd like to avoid Dallas if at all possible. Denver/Golden St. 1st round Houston/Jazz 2nd round would be ideal. Let the rest of the teams fight it out. This would also give Bynum time to return if he is coming back.
being american isn't to brag about![]()
And really I'm not hating on Pau because I like his game. I was just pointing out the obvious and lakers fans who were all realistic fans a couple of seasons ago when they were sucking are all now wearing homers glasses and can't take the truth. YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH.
