Heel toe is the preferred technique. However, on the street, unless I'm feeling particularly sporty/aggressive, I brake, stop braking for a second to rev match and downshift, and get back on the brake. I'd venture to say that is what 99% of manual transmission drivers do on the street (considering how few of those are even sports cars).

FWIW, if I am coming to a stop, I keep it in whatever gear I was last in (3/4/5/6) and when the rpm's drop to the point of stutter (i.e. 25mph) I depress the clutch. Sometimes I will downshift to 4th or 3rd if I was in 6th, but not usually.
