Is this the biggest choke job in history?

[deja vu]

They destroyed the Warriors by 20+ in games 3 and 4 to go up 3-1 and then lose 3 straight.

I can't think of a bigger choke job.

[SouBeachTalents]

2004 Alcs

[NBAGOAT]

uh there was an even bigger choke job last year in the playoffs.

[imdaman99]

No. You don't think a defending champ that won 73 games are capable of winning 3 in a row? :biggums:
FFS they had their first 2 game losing streak of the year in this series

[BigBoss]

Please take your vitamins and consider returning to school.

Yeah but OKC were vastly superior after game 4. They had the Warriors on the ropes.

[Im Still Ballin]

Game 6 2013

[SouBeachTalents]

Yeah but OKC were vastly superior after game 4. They had the Warriors on the ropes.

Ok, but worst choke in history? Absurdly hyperbolic, acting like the NBA and other major sports leagues haven't been around for 50-100 years

[RoseCity07]

Lakers blowing a 20 poing lead at home in the NBA Finals was the last time I've seen a choke that bad.

[Meticode]

Why would anyone even ask this question if they even semi-followed basketball? Memories are short.

[DCL]

one of the most colossal choke jobs in recent memory

this is the type of series that tarnishes legacies for life

[Kiddlovesnets]

2015 LA Clippers by far, its not even a contest. Winning game 1 by 16, game 3 by 25 and game 4 by 33, then lost three in a row by double digits. Its among the most bizarre series in NBA playoffs history.

[coin24]

Last years clippers was bad, but this was the wcf:oldlol:

[Cold soul]

This one was pretty damn bad but Spurs game 6 2013 comes to mind to me as biggest choke job in long time.

[Edgar Friendly]

Lakers blowing a 20 poing lead at home in the NBA Finals was the last time I've seen a choke that bad.

Or Portland blowing a 15 point lead to the Lakers in the 4th quarter of Game 7 WCF :roll:

Not only that, but it felt like the Warriors took this series more than the Thunder choking it away. Yes, whenever a team loses, that team is at fault to a varying degree. But I mean, what can a team possibly do about a guy hitting 11 (11!!!) 3-pointers, often barely taking the time to look at the hoop and pulling from 30 with little hesitation?

In the end, it felt like the Thunder fell because they finally experienced the vortex that is the Golden State Warriors. I've believed for most of the year that if Golden State plays anywhere near their potential, they're virtually untouchable. It's like playing a final boss whose power keeps regenerating.

[andgar923]

I would say it's one of the biggest choke jobs ever, if it wasn't for who was involved.

I didn't expect anything less from KD and specially Dumbbrick.

it's their destiny to always fail.

[stalkerforlife]

2011.

[TemporaMutantur]

uh there was an even bigger choke job last year in the playoffs.

This.

[La Frescobaldi]

It's the biggest choke job in the history of this season so far.

That's about it.

[Disaprine]

nothing defeats the 2011 finals.

[sd3035]

Lebald

[riseagainst]

2013 finals game 6 by the Spurs was a bigger choke job.

2011 finals overall by the Heat.

[Nuff Said]

2007 mavs?

[Patrick Chewing]

It's not a real choke job unless Lebron is involved.

[DLeagueWannabe]

I've seen bigger chokes, but this definitely has a place in the Bible of Chokes.

[Patrick Chewing]

nothing defeats the 2011 finals.


Oh yeahhhhh

[Derka]

Biggest choke of this season. That's about it.

The hyperbole some of you use around here makes me think you started watching sports last week and went stat picking at Wikipedia for the rest.
