Disagree completely. What happened tonight is what happens when you move the ball and cut off ball. You get great looks for role players and they find a rhythm. When you spend most of the game watching Bron go iso and kick off a drive you can go cold. Especially as a shooter/role player. Tonight they were hitting the same shots they missed at Indy simply because they were more engaged. It showed on D as well. Additionally look at the time Bron spent on the bench? Those "scrubs" made a run.

Nailed it. Id hate to be a role player for lebron. Yea you get crazy open shots but not in rhythm.  Btw carmello doesnt get this excuse, he had a high number of touches and still sucked. Catch and shoot is easy when you're in rhythm and warm (neurally) with regular touches (just rotating the ball etc) but if you get the ball very rarely and you're instantly expected to just nail a jumpshot cold, you dont really have the same rhythm/confidence and its a lot of pressure and you can miss the same shots you'd have made easily

fair enough.

disagree that lebron doesn't make his teammates better anymore. he's surrounded by scrubs who are winning playoff games over rosters that are more talented top to bottom because he drags them up.

yes, he's petty and ridiculous on social media, and he's a bad shadow GM. but on the court he's the GOAT and part of being the GOAT is willing mediocre rosters to success, which he did in his early years in cleveland and is doing again now. without lebron there is no question that cleveland is a bottom-dwelling lottery team.

FP said it, but that goes extra for dieting, which is hard even done carefully and well. and i mean, you literally said "unhealthy." it's not that there's never a place for a rapid cut, but 2 pounds a week for 20 straight weeks seems unrealistic. and because it's unrealistic, once you get off track you'll beat yourself up and go off the wagon altogether.

might be better to start with a more modest, more immediate goal.

med men, right? say hi to my friend russell if he's there. he was on the team last year. we used to play mixed together a few years back.

sunday felt slightly off all day, turns out it was a migraine halo. took some sumatriptan in time to head off the worst of it but still, running was nnnnnot happening. felt crappy again yesterday and just decided to rest.

- run 10.09 km in 50:55
pacing all over the place but averaging 5:03 is okay.

- push ups x 16

- KB upright row x 16

- stretch

ah right, forgotten you'd already gone sub-5.

have already said this in my journal but once i'm through with the races on my trip i think i'm going to spend more time doing hard lactate threshold and speed stuff. keep the easy days easy but make the hard days harder. i'm pretty weak mentally by my own estimation and part of that is just not, as you say, ingraining the feeling of being uncomfortable and pushing the pace for extended periods.
