So was i the only one impressed with this mixtape?!

just finally got around to watching it.. ya it was nasty. I watched basketball alot during those years, so I remember this season. The most impressive thing in that video, is all of the crazy fast ball movement, quick passes. They were such a well-oiled machine.

I think GSW's 73-9 (most likely) highlights will be even better.. much less dunks, far more crazy ball handling/insane shots.. lots of similar passing and fast break clips.. probably less defensive highlights, cept for maybe Draymond.

Curry pulls off several 'holy shit' moments per game.. To me, Jordan was simply unstoppable. He made far more points inside the 3-pt line. His turn-around fadeaways were money.

Curry on the other hand, often does so much crazy shit to get a shot off.. or he pulls up from ~5 ft behind the 3 pt line.

2016 GSW mixtape will just be an aerial bombardment from beyond the 3pt line.

pC!

figured it out, it's the upload size i've been choosing. here's that front-angle bound-bound-jump video again in HD. i'll know better next time.

Is this an Adarq comeback?

ya i think we can call it that now.  :ibjumping: :ibrunning:

L-SLRVJ + running comeback.. calisthenics was in there too but.. fuck prolonged tension (for now) ;f

Also, your man Bern is getting screwed over lol  The Dems really just want to control which person gets the nomination.  The voters didn't even need to vote in Wyoming because their votes didn't even count, hilldog still got the most delegates even though she lost by 12%.

well, he just needs to keep winning. If he keeps winning, they won't be able to screw him over. He needs to make it undeniable. His supporters need to get everyone out to vote, in the upcoming primary contests.

if somehow he can win in NY... the game changes completely. However, polls have him down ~10 points or so unfortunately.

I'm still hopeful :) lol @ people telling him to get out of the race (now and months ago). He needs to push his message as long as possible.

The real screw-over is going to happen with Trump though.. I mean he will have a convincing delegate lead, probably without getting the clinching number, and they are just going to rip it from him. It does seem like Paul Ryan might be getting ready to jump into this thing at the convention. It's just crazy.

I haven't jumped in a gym in... ...... 2 years I think. And before that I haven't jumped in a gym for 5 years.

thanks y'all  :D  also, lol acole/raptor. squatDR status.

some really nice jumps in there, absolutely loved that two hand rim grab.. that's a dunk-jump for sure. Also that one where yellow-shorts blocked most of it looked really high.. are you getting more amp'd up when people are around?

do you know if you can record in 720p? i'm getting 280p on youtube.

sick man. pC!

yeah the yellow shorts jump was around 36.5: base of palm but not quite wrist. very high for me but not quite PR-level. not sure it's the other people, i've just been getting up higher in general. but my highest jumps have all come with other people around so dunno. small sample size.

will see if i can up the resolution on the vids. not sure how to do that but i think the phone can even shoot 4k. should be able to shoot 720.

4k wtf? that would be fun to see.

one reason why I keep asking about it.. on your next PR jumps (38+) AND on your first dunk caught on vid, don't you want to see it in 4k or 720p? in all its glory?

 :ninja:

if you are recording in 720p/4k currently, and it's hitting youtube at 280p, then it's the software you're using to render the videos. You could always test by uploading the raw footage (which it seems like what you do already) to youtube. I suspect it's how you're actually recording and not how the video software (if you're using any) is downgrading quality.

pC!

i think im going to go dribble my bball.. nice! heh.

i need to get some 'deep knee bends' and such going, and some more movements in general.. bball dribbling would tackle that. Only thing i'm wondering about is my elbow. I've been putting it off because of my tennis-elbow but, it might actually do it some good.

fairly huge gap between R and L jumps, no? like 8+?

regarding vert, actually not that large of a difference right now. if I wanted I could hit 10'-10'1 with R-SLRVJ. Several months back I hit ~10'2" R-SLRVJ (which was a life time PR). So more like ~4-5" currently, but that will continue to grow (as my L-SLRVJ improves)

the enormous gap is "how it feels to jump" off each leg. It just feels like crap jumping off my R-SLRVJ; coordination, power, mentally, run-up, everything. So instead of pushing it i'm just getting some light reps in.

If I was focusing on R-SLRVJ though, I just don't see how it would improve as fast as my L-SLRVJ because of the coordination issues. I mean it probably looks decent, but, my ability to really generate power off of that leg barely exists. Just going to keep lightly repping it out and see what happens.

Roy Jones JR is my favorite boxer of all time... he's just, I don't know, amazing, looks unreal at times, has has a great combination of savagery, athleticism and "swagger"/arrogance.

nice! ya he's video game status.

he is #1 in many books.. going from jr middleweight to heavyweight is also insane.

only fighters i can remember with nearly as much swagger, is Prince Naseem Ahmed or Pernell Whitacker.. Naseem had insane power + swagger.

btw.. if you want to see some serious beast shit, nothing beats roy jones jr's highlight tape, with his own rap song, knocking everyone out. That part where he destroys the double end bag, in the intro at ~6-11 s gets me every time.. that is so unreal.. it's hard to explain how difficult that is.

also roy played professional basketball (CBA?).. most athletic boxer i've ever seen. You can see the basketball (streetball) influence in the ring. He's basically doing streetball shit in a boxing ring.

beast as fuck.



edit: FWIW, mayweather and pacquiao both love bball too, mayweather is actually decent (IIRC). Sergio Martinez could have played professional futbol I think.. futbol/basketball have to be great for footwork in the ring. Basketball even more-so because you also get that hand/arm coordination from dribbling.

This is 6'6 230lb now heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. Was up checking his insta account late last night and marveling at how athletic he is. Plenty of plyo routines as a part of his regiment it seems.

https://instagram.com/p/7ud4MAxyZ5/

Another here, monstrous physique on him. I also feel like British athletics does very well in training their athletes in a number of sports. Their rap is crap though.

ya he's a freak, crazy athletic. knocking everyone out, gold medalist.

normally guys with those kinds of physiques (to a lesser degree, his is ridiculous) don't do so good at HW.. he's legit though. They need to get him some bigger fights soon.

all that power/skill, hope to see him take out some big names ;d
