Yes hitting the front of the rim on a free throw is a choke.

For an 80% shooter, definitely. Ironically, a more standard miss that bounced more wouldn't have fallen into JRs hands.

Oh he definitely a choked, but I can forgive choking under pressure more than not looking at the scoreboard during free throws in the last 4 seconds of the game.

When you're the all-time leader in rebound percentage, you can also wear whatever you want. When the ball was up for grabs off the glass, nobody was better at getting it than him.
