It does work in the playoffs geting fouled but you gota play bully ball to get to the line in the playoffs. It's just Hardens method doesn't work in the playoffs lol
It's more than that. This postseason I saw Steph drop 30+ ppg not making more than 3 threes and 5 ft, Harden has 9 points in a game 7 game, how do you do that. Like that doesn't sound possible????
I thought that too but in Houston he averaged 9.4 free throws a game in the playoffs. So pretty clear he still got to the line he just was worse under the pressure
Here in 2024 when Harden finally increased his PPG and eFG % in the playoffs, while playing more minutes, and still lost in the first round. Even when he doesn’t choke, he chokes
I feel like every time we talk about superstars between the regular season and the postseason their PPG/efficiency drops from the regular season to the postseason. A video of guys who maintained or exceeded their efficiency going into the postseason would be a great watch
Love it Barry. Be fascinating to see your take on the opposite, the most clutch players in NBA history. The guys who always seemed to step it up in the playoffs and just knew they were gonna show up with the big shot in the big moment.
Why the fuck yall keep saying Mcgrady when he played for mediocre teams?? Yall think someone can win championships on there own?? You think Jordan woulda won all those championships without pippen Kerr and Rodman??
Even beyond winning in ‘21, I think averaging 35/14/7 against the Celtics last year and pushing them to the limit without Middleton solidified his playoff prowess. He’s a beast
The fuck are you taking about he has never had a solid team around him.. you can't win championships on ya own.. all these dudes that made the list had help around them that is the difference
I don’t understand the David Robinson take. From the ages 24-30 he looked pretty good in the playoffs. And from then on injuries, being the second fiddle to Duncan, and the addition of Manu brought his stats down. That’s not a Choker to me
He didn’t win till he got Duncan. And everyone plays injured. Especially back then. Also, the guy making the video said that being healthy was one of the metrics ls he was taking into account. He also got owned by his contemporaries in every playoff series.
@@KobeLoverTatum he’s been hurt but hasn’t missed playoff games. Go look at his playoff stats from age 24-30 he put up good numbers.

this doesn’t really tell us anything new. he’s never made it out of the 2nd round, and when you’re a high seed in the first round, you’re playing 43-48 win teams, this adds nothing
Embiid still has yet to reach a conference finals while his contemporaries AD and Jokic have both won titles. Hell even KAT has made the WCF in 2024. Embiid is a bum and Paul George won't save him
In Malone's defense, he made the Finals twice as a starter (3 if he started for the 03-04 Lakers, I don't remember). Harden's *only* Finals appearance was as a bench player with the Thunder being third banana at best behind Durant and Westbrook
Often forgotten due to the era he played in, but Elvin Hayes was a big choker in his day. Got swept in the Finals by the '75 Warriors and underperformed many times in the postseason with Washington. Lucky for him he won a championship against the Supersonics in 1978 (a team who went on to beat him the very next year in a Finals rematch).
The unsettling music in the background made me think this was a serial killer documentary. Which is fitting, because Patrick Ewing killed a LOT of Knicks teams by being the NBA version of a Honda Civic in the postseason.

Exactly he spent all year tiring himself out crying for the mvp and in the playoffs he proved he is not him, while jokic is having the best offensice postseason ever probably

The most frustrating aspect of Wilt's post seasons was when eith the Lakers. Wilt was possibly even more passive on offense than was Rodman. The difference here is that Wilt had much more offensive ability than did Rodman. You can watch video of Wilt from 1970 onward when he gets the ball and immediately looks to get rid of it.
I always freeze the videos when the stats come on the page so that I can read them. Something interesting that I glean from your David Robinson and Patrick Ewing takes was that both of those guys wear turnover machines. Robinson had a career 2.4 and Patrick Ewing had a straight-up 3 turnovers per game. Both those guys had a couple good years were they didn't turn it over as much and that actually lowered their numbers which would have been closer to three and a half.
Imagine if LeBron had a chance to play multiple finals against one of the biggest chokers, instead he was going against the top dinasties in the history of the NBA in Spurs and Warriors. I guess the basketball gods didn't want him to have 10+ rings
2011 happened and he's the one who picked Superstars over depth. Neither Steph or Duncan are better than Lebron yet they have better teams. That's why 2020 is Lebron best ring. That's one time he did it right: 2 Stars and depth and would you look at that, he's now back in the Conference final with that formula.
The Spurs were a great team that won 5 championships but never a dynasty. Warriors became a dynasty at LeBron’s expense, so they were not one until 2018. So no LeBron did not go up against dynasties
@LouisSportsNetwork If you win multiple championships, doesn't that make you a dynasty? I don't watch a lot of basketball, but the reason people consider the Patriots a dynasty is because they won 6 rings and appeared in 9 or 10 superbowls.
@@matthewcrispinwordofGod Not necessarily. The Patriots were called a dynasty when they won 3 super bowls in a 4 year span including going back 2 back. They were able to win 3 more after that. What they did was impressive. When they beat the Eagles in Super Bowl 39 and won their second straight Super Bowl and 3rd in 4 years, that is when they became a dynasty
Myself, and a large portion of the NBA community, were ready to apologize to Harden if he got the Sixers past the Celtics despite Embiid's own chokejob. He had it working on all cylinders until... it was time to finish the job.
I don’t watch basketball very much, but I watched the Celtics v 76ers series and its hilarious seeing a 7ft “mvp” flop all over the place like a cartoon character.
man you really hit hard with that “best moment of embiids playoff career” question the only thing i could even think of was kawhi hitting that insane shot over him to send toronto to the series where they won their first championship
For people who are like currently 22-30, Carmelo is maybe the most overrated player of all-time. Really good never all-nba first team, only 2nd team twice, and a 3-13 playoff series record. People have an emotional attachment to him but he's such a clear step below his contemporaries. He's like a slightly better Paul Pierce if KG never came
I can tell that you are quite young, or just recently got into the nba (you never watched Carmelo). I think he's massively overrated too, but your choice of arguments to critique his career just exposes your ignorance, man. Being second and third team all-nba after Lebron, KD, Dirk, Timmy and a few times Paul Pierce can still mean he was a (great) player in his prime. Who the hell gives any credence to all nba voting anyway? Do you really judge people by their journalist-voted accolades? By the way, in EVERY one of his losses in the playoffs (in his prime, denver and nyk) he was on the underdog team.
@@Zach-bt2ky You caught me, I'm 7 years old and just started watching the NBA. Yeah yah dumbfuck I literally said he's really good but clearly a step below all his contemporaries, he's not near the level of Lebron, Wade, TMac, Dirk, Durant even like Chris Paul or Dwight honestly. And if you wanna discount all-nba as "judging people by their journalist-voted accolades" that's your prerogative but I think MVP, All-NBA, and other awards still give you a useful snapshot of who was considered the 10-15ish best players that year.
@@quantrellbishop9263 I'm not basing it off his takes at all, if you wanna say he's better thats fine but Pierce was never really in the convo for like a top-5 player in the league and I think melo at least got there for a little bit
I know it was way before your time, but Elgin Baylor has to be the biggest choker in history, he was in eight finals with the Lakers and lost them all! Jerry West was right behind with seven finals losses and one win.
@@lucasphillips2177 I knew Kareem was a civil rights activist but I didn't know Oscar Robinson and Bill Russell were plumbers or that John Havelcik and Jerry West were firemen.
Lowkey Giannis belongs on this list too. Most dominant player since Shaq but goes completely silent every single year in the playoffs, and I mean EVERY single year. 2021 made people forget that, and even then the Bucks were halfway swept until CP3 started choking the hell out of that finals.
You cant be on this list if you drop 50 in a game 6 closeout game in the finals lmao. Also he hasnt shit his pants every year, he was decent against Boston last year.
Are you fucking stupid? The 2 full games he played this years playoffs he had an efficient 26 point triple double and a 38/20 game on 52% shooting. You're dumb as fuck.
6:50-6:56; Me being in the military, I understood the joke. P.S. love the video even though it pains me to see Mr. Class Act a.k.a. David Robinson being on this list.
Having a point decrease in ppg in the playoffs actually makes sense because you are playing against better comp, better defense and more effort. Seems counterintuitive to include in in the argument
This is why we should talk about post season numbers more when ranking people all time. When we look at Karl Malone’s numbers, you would think he is top 10 all time. We should keep mentioning post season succes (of course with context but the point stands)
Utah had CRAZY continuity so you know something was off if they didn't win at least once. Karl never missed a game, Stockton never missed, Mark Eaton and Thurl Bailey never missed, Jeff Malone and Jeff Hornacek never missed. And they never caught a team that was injured at the right time? Wild.
I’m gonna be honest I love Barry every minute of everyday regardless, but I’m a bit more bias to his basketball content, probably because I’m a bit more of a basketball fan lol😅

It’s 5AM in the morning Barry, go to sleep😭😭
Barry riding that thin line like Len Bias
Sorry Barry but the Admiral is a navy rank of which the lowest is Seaman Recruit, not private. I can’t believe the disrespect for the troops you have.
I was waiting for this!
New Barry always makes our day better
Glenn Rivers (the coach) not being number 1 on this list is criminal
What did he do ?
lmfao that Chris Hansen shit killed me
My wife’s boyfriend woke me up to tell me Barry dropped another vid
Good content by ole Barry the usual
Do top 10 playoff performers next Barry! Nice list as always
u should do top 10 players risers next
Myself, and a large portion of the NBA community, were ready to apologize to Harden if he got the Sixers past the Celtics despite Embiid's own chokejob. He had it working on all cylinders until... it was time to finish the job.
I love when Barry talks about choking, no offense to Mia Khalifa
I don’t watch basketball very much, but I watched the Celtics v 76ers series and its hilarious seeing a 7ft “mvp” flop all over the place like a cartoon character.
Same. I don't even consider myself to be a basketball fan and I get what you're saying.
man you really hit hard with that “best moment of embiids playoff career” question
the only thing i could even think of was kawhi hitting that insane shot over him to send toronto to the series where they won their first championship
I've been subbed for a while and never realized how funny your name is 💀
Those demar derozan stats were crazy.
For people who are like currently 22-30, Carmelo is maybe the most overrated player of all-time. Really good never all-nba first team, only 2nd team twice, and a 3-13 playoff series record. People have an emotional attachment to him but he's such a clear step below his contemporaries. He's like a slightly better Paul Pierce if KG never came
I can tell that you are quite young, or just recently got into the nba (you never watched Carmelo). I think he's massively overrated too, but your choice of arguments to critique his career just exposes your ignorance, man. Being second and third team all-nba after Lebron, KD, Dirk, Timmy and a few times Paul Pierce can still mean he was a (great) player in his prime. Who the hell gives any credence to all nba voting anyway? Do you really judge people by their journalist-voted accolades? By the way, in EVERY one of his losses in the playoffs (in his prime, denver and nyk) he was on the underdog team.
@@Zach-bt2ky You caught me, I'm 7 years old and just started watching the NBA.
Yeah yah dumbfuck I literally said he's really good but clearly a step below all his contemporaries, he's not near the level of Lebron, Wade, TMac, Dirk, Durant even like Chris Paul or Dwight honestly.
And if you wanna discount all-nba as "judging people by their journalist-voted accolades" that's your prerogative but I think MVP, All-NBA, and other awards still give you a useful snapshot of who was considered the 10-15ish best players that year.
Paul Pierce is miles ahead of melo, hes become one of the most underrated players ever just because he has clickbait takes
@@quantrellbishop9263 I'm not basing it off his takes at all, if you wanna say he's better thats fine but Pierce was never really in the convo for like a top-5 player in the league and I think melo at least got there for a little bit
@@quantrellbishop9263 Absolute retard take from you bro, give Melo that Boston team and they winning 3 rings.
Barry is the only man for whom I'd watch a basketball video
I know it was way before your time, but Elgin Baylor has to be the biggest choker in history, he was in eight finals with the Lakers and lost them all! Jerry West was right behind with seven finals losses and one win.
Yeah but he was actually good in those serieses
the somber music in the second half was art
Wilt averaged 27 &27 across his 9 career game 7’s. Better than anyone else’s game 7 averages.
Against plumbers, civil rights activists, firemen,
@@lucasphillips2177 yeah Kareem, Thurmond, Bellamy, Unseld & Russell sure are plumbers. You shouldn’t be allowed to vote dude you’re incredibly dense.
@@lucasphillips2177 I knew Kareem was a civil rights activist but I didn't know Oscar Robinson and Bill Russell were plumbers or that John Havelcik and Jerry West were firemen.
It ain’t better than Bill Russell’s or Bron’s
@@MegaKhalid121 You’ll have to get back to me with what their game 7 averages are, but I’d be shocked if it’s better than 27-27.
Lowkey Giannis belongs on this list too.
Most dominant player since Shaq but goes completely silent every single year in the playoffs, and I mean EVERY single year.
2021 made people forget that, and even then the Bucks were halfway swept until CP3 started choking the hell out of that finals.
You cant be on this list if you drop 50 in a game 6 closeout game in the finals lmao. Also he hasnt shit his pants every year, he was decent against Boston last year.
He won a ring last year. And his efficiency doesn't drop off that much. On top of that, jimmy butler is Michael Jordan this year.
Are you fucking stupid? The 2 full games he played this years playoffs he had an efficient 26 point triple double and a 38/20 game on 52% shooting. You're dumb as fuck.
He was out 3 games this year.
Played 8 min game 1 and got unjured. Kd fans are just mad. He needs to be on tge B2B list of fails.
The*
6:50-6:56; Me being in the military, I understood the joke. P.S. love the video even though it pains me to see Mr. Class Act a.k.a. David Robinson being on this list.
I love the music at 8:04
I think TMac deserves to be on here. The man never got past the 1st round
I can't believe this isn't 10 separate clips of Steph bricking 3s.
The moment I believe that hello fresh fights against marijuana overdoses i will use Barry's code
Having a point decrease in ppg in the playoffs actually makes sense because you are playing against better comp, better defense and more effort. Seems counterintuitive to include in in the argument
What??? Lmao
Also slower pace like you could be exactly the same and your ppg would drop
YES NEW BARRY
Barry thank you for not deleting your Warriors video.
Better joke would have been using the actual naval rank "seaman" instead of "private".
Is there a possibility you do a video of the inverse of this? I'd love to see who you have as the top 10 playoff thrivers in NBA history
0:30 next time, Barry, say “but get your regular forks out first, because this video is sponsored by HelloFresh!”
Barry getting the sponsors 😍😍😍
opening with a pic of sprewell is genius 😂
Great video. Can you do the opposite of chokers next vid?
6:50 I'm so glad you didn't say he played like a Seaman
The mailman never delivered on time except to your 12 year old daughter house 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is why we should talk about post season numbers more when ranking people all time. When we look at Karl Malone’s numbers, you would think he is top 10 all time. We should keep mentioning post season succes (of course with context but the point stands)
Barry another banger
Embiid hitting game winner against Toronto first round game 3 2021 his most notable playoff moment
Gotta be honest, losing by 60 points PROBABLY isn’t just one player’s fault 👀
Shoutout to Barry for actually not including Steph in this.
"10 biggest chokers in NBA history" - First image is Latrell Sprewell ... Barry you hilarious bastard
I really want you to make your personal 10 favorite choke jobs in sports
I lost my shit at that zoom out at 5:15 😂
Utah had CRAZY continuity so you know something was off if they didn't win at least once.
Karl never missed a game, Stockton never missed, Mark Eaton and Thurl Bailey never missed, Jeff Malone and Jeff Hornacek never missed.
And they never caught a team that was injured at the right time?
Wild.
I’ve watched this video like 10 times and I don’t l watch basketball. Thank you Barry. Marijuana is bad.
I’m gonna be honest I love Barry every minute of everyday regardless, but I’m a bit more bias to his basketball content, probably because I’m a bit more of a basketball fan lol😅
This is a great video
