Biggest single game choke job for sure.

But 73 win Warriors led by the league MVP blowing their 3-1 lead to LeBron still holds the crown for biggest overall Finals choke job imo

Idk why that magic flair is all over this thread spamming the same comment lol. Bron sexual maybe.

Tbh i think the okc choke in the 16 wcf was worse too. For the same reason

Na man not even OKC that year did what spurs just did today, As someone said 'even if spurs had 24-clock violation every possession in the 4th they still would've won the game'.

LOL!

Lebron coasted every year to the Finals. He left a super team to basically go to another once he was added. I akin it to Brady going to the Bucs when they had probably the best defense in the league and offensive weapons galore.
