Might be that the transmission is not shifting properly when you come to a stop. If the transmission stays in high gear the brakes will start to slow down the engine untill it kills it ( like driving a manual transmission and not putting in the clutch. I would do a fluid check of the transmission and maybe try shifting it down to low gear manually when it starts to stop the engine to see if this might be the problem.
Well if it only does it while braking I would check out the brake booster and the lines that feed the vaccum to it. Might be pulling to much and is bogging the engine down. Just a guess though.
P.S. Bad english is fine but please turn the caps lock off.

torque converter
If you have an automatic, (especially a 4R70W trans) and the engine tries to stall like a manual trans vehicle coming to a stop without pushing in the clutch, then most likely you have some metal pieces grounding out the TCC solenoid in the trans and causing the torque converter clutch to stay applied at all times. Take off the trans pan and do a visual, if there is a lot of metal, you will need to have the trans overhauled/replaced. Good luck, Paul
