i would have easily been a LJ fan but the flopping just does not work for me.

if golden state was healthy, it would have been an easy 4-1 or 4-2 win for the warriors.

if golden state lost to OKC. it would have been a lot worst for cleveland. i don't see LB doing his points in the paint against the canter/adams/ibaka. but so hard to cheer for okc because westbrook is a bitch.

solid points..

devils advocate, when you're as big and strong as lebron, you're not getting calls unless you act a little. maybe.

i do agree if dubs were healthy they'd have closed out ..

OKC v CLE wud have been an amazing contest and i do think OKC win that. I'm sure KD is sitting there ruing his chances. Honestly, it's unfair to blame one plyaer --- but what were they thinking picking up dion fucking waiters. He cost them game 5. IMHO. Such a scrub, didn't belong on a contender.

Here a rough summary of how my workouts are looking for the coming week:

Mon: off
Tue: Lifts
Wed: off
Thurs: plyos: depth jumps /  jump squats,  full court bball game
Fri: off
sat: Lifts 
Sun: pickup bball

I need to figure out a way to include track work ..
but idk what day wud suit. Maybe thurs? hmmm.

Are you kidding?  Your already doing plyos Thursday. 

Monday.  Tuesday before lifts.  Sat before lifts.  Lots of options.  You gotta change your mindset when it comes to lifting though if you want to become a real athlete. 

The mindset is: "oh no if I sprint/bound/jump before lifting my squat will be weaker!" Unacceptable. 

First of all.  Are you a lifter or an athlete?

Second.  Maybe weaker but actually not much weaker because you will adapt.  Assuming you squat 200kg.  Maybe initially when you get in track work first that squat will go down to 180.  But you will adapt and be able to lift 95% as much post track. 

Third.  Who cares how much you lift.  Progress requires effort moreso than poundage.  So if you doing track and lifting and progressing your squat from 150-160-170kg vs avoiding track and going from 160-170-180 it's the same thing.   A month off track and you would "realize your gains" and squat almost as much as if u never did the track work.   Basically a track work normalized lift doesn't need to be as strong - the carryover is the same and the weight is safer.   Win win.

holy shit i got feedback! cant wait to pore over this and read it

btw im kinda proud that i figured out the traffic thing bout LA .. maybe i cud move there .. lol. i really wanna. if it doesn't work out with this girl im seeing im moving, i think.

SHAQ is goat but with that win lebron surpasses jordan as an all round player, IMHO. We can argue about it though. Where is t0ddday??

Amazing. My gut feeling is if he played with a slightly better cast he'd have a legit triple double average instead of a lebron triple double average. I'm in awe of what he pulled off this post season.  I just hope his legacy now belongs rightfully above MJ not below. There are things MJ could do and there are things only LBJ23 could do - to do it against the odds, coming back from 3-1 down, coming back from being homeless and against a historically great team - it's just amazing. The true king.

I'm so disappointed in Curry though. He played so selfishly when that game was still winnable in the last 5 mins. Those shots were awful. Why not defer to Klay or Draymond. He's getting all the attention, let Klay have a go. I'm sad for Klay.

Btw has anyone seen a source lebron's stats for the 7 game series? I computed the numbers as 29.7, 11.3 rb and 8.9 assists but i havent been able to corroborate it against a reliable source.

Fuck no, this is the same Klay in game 6, who reduced a 17 point deficit at the end of the 2nd quarter down to 9 by scoring 8 straight (3,3,2) in 3 possessions. That's my goto guy when you need a comeback if i am on the warriors staff. Curry just wanted to be a hero.

I wish Klay was taking those shots instead of gay ass curry. Fuck curry. Give it to the true sharposhooter on the team.

BW: 80.5kg / 177.47lb

Good workout and good postworkout meal --> gainz. Though scale goes up, i'm ok with it! First 7 days were interesting.. played hoops twice, lifted twice, one workout was actually decent. Got a bit leaner. I'm happy.

Next 7 days i wanna do better though, will switch to fully clean eating with scale weighted meals and increase training workload as I get back into shape. I wanna be consistently 79kg or less by day 15.
Pickup bball today.

BW: 79.7kg / 175.71lb (LPR)

Well on track to hit goal weight of 174 in record time! Woohooo. I'm going to lay off the low carb dieting now and do it in a more moderate fashion from here on. I want to stabilise at 174 with creatine -- so i think i need to make room for bout 2.5lb before I add in creatine? SOmething like that. I dont know.

Training hard today.
BS 2x110(LPR), 3x3x110(LPR), 2x2x110
RDL 8x110 (LPR), 8x150(LPR; hook grip but nonexistent rom so doesn't count)
BP 6x70, 3x80(LPR), 6x75(LPR), 8x75(LPR)
WCU 2x102.8(LPR; +20kg), 5x97.8(LPR; +15kg), 6x92.8(LPR; +10kg)
CURL 8x40(LPR), 2x6x40(LPR)
TM - 1km in 8 mins (LPR; new ex)

Notes:
LPR squat workset volume at 15 reps. My back didn't like the latter sets, hope it's going to be ok. honestly, not sure why my spine always acts up after a break from squatting heavy..... :/  First time doing weighted chinups in like 6+ weeks!

No i dont think any of that matters now, if you look at this series and this game, coming back from 3-1 is already done, so is regular season. reg season mvp doesn't matter. Coach of the year is regular season fodder. Look at the finals and only the finals, i think you have to conceed cavs are favourites. I dont know how the gambling odds go but in my mind the dubs are the underdog. Bogut wasn't pivotal last year's finals and he was on the bench while David Lee came up big. This year they don't have either after Bogut's injury. I'm not sure bout Andre's injury but without a Lebron stopper (and if anyone is that, it's Andre), Cavs shud have a pretty straight forward game. Plus momentum.

Lebron bullying curry for. He's tiny. Pick on someone your own size! I'm for dubs in game 7, don't care for Lebron's lack of humility lol.

C'mon man what lack of humility? He's playing mind games with Steph and he's winning. What about Steph acting like a spoilt child when he picked up the 6th foul. Literally spat the dummy and it hit a fan in the front row.

haha. to be honest im just trying to find a reason to be invested in game 7. i like lebron being a villian more than anything else cause it means i can support the dubs as underdogs. But that's neither here or there. To be honest whoever wins game 7 prob deserves to win a ring so im not too fussed..

Klay casually drops 8 points and brings the lead down to 9. I love this kid.
