Yeah I don't think the Kiwis choked either. They played a tough opponent and at the end it could've gone either way. That's how a final should be. Whether they won by 1 or 100, doesn't matter. They did what they had to in order to win. If they'd been blown out by 25+ points then ok, people could say they choked considering they were the heavy favourites. For a match that started off really dull (in my opinion), I found myself really into it at the end. And of course was happy with the result.
