I'm talking about the NBA. Rose hasn't been in the league long enough to choke as much as James and he will never live the finals down until he wins a title.

Kind of funny that Chalmers knocked his down while Rose and LeBron pissed down their legs. Missing a last second shot is one thing, but missing free throws with the game on the line is flat out choke on both parts. LeBron has done it twice this year. He's a great player but a choke is a choke.

Actually, Douglas Roberts was the choker in that game. Rose had the last two free throws, the first was all but in and then he made the second. He was the best player in that game, and was the primary reason Memphis was in position to win. Hardly a choke job, you're going with revisionist history.

Surprised Rose missed his, but they said he'd been 28-28 in the fourth quarter this season from the line. I'd say that's pretty solid when it matters.
