I think we officially need to call choking in the playoffs "Hardening"

Also, if I had to guess, is the below 20% Kobe doing it twice?


I cant imagine KD or Lebron doing it, so either Kobe did it twice or MJ had a night

Jordan in Game 3 vs. New York, 1993
LeBron in Game 1 vs. Boston, 2008

Kobe shot under 20-percent twice in the playoffs, but they didn't pass the 10 FGA threshold

I'm thinking it's Lebron for at least one if not both. I know he had a super shitty game in the Heat/Mavs final and another against the Celtics in like 2010 or something. Not sure if it was below 20% though.

Quickly searching on BBallRef, it appears that Lebron did it once, MJ did it once, Kobe did it twice, and Durant never did it.

So it looks like the stat is wrong (although it was a quick search on my part), and MJ, Lebron, Kobe, and Durant have 4 combined games with <20% from the field, not 2.

Edit: Actually I just saw that it was for 10 FGA minimum, and Kobe’s didn’t meet that. So the stat was right.

Jordan was 9 for 35 in 1997 against the heat


Thats over 20%, but the mother fricker shot it 35 times and only made 9 And he wasnt throwing up 3s either

See my post above.

He also used the 10 FGA threshold, which cuts that down to those two I listed
