Basketball / Re: Kevin Durant going apeshit@~!

Yeah but it's a matter of confidence/swagger as well. Playing in an inferior league gives an NBA player added swagger/confidence.
A friend of mine played 1 on 1 with a guy from Romania's first division at a streetball tournament for exhibition purposes. And I tell you what - that guy (not my friend, the 1st division player) was shooting closer to half court or so and making everything. And my friend actually played decent defense on him. But he shot the lights out, making basket after basket, we were amazed.
The same guy could barely get 5 minutes per game, if any, in our WEAK AS SHIT 1st Division. So, it's all a matter of swagger/confidence.

The reason you feel your ankles/calves load more in spikes is because spiked shoes act as "jumpsoles". Meaning - the spike length in the front part of the foot creates a forefoot loaded walk/run mechanics and the heel will be in the air if the foot is parallel to the ground.
So they basically act like "shorter jumpsoles", making that one additional benefit of spiked shoes.

Still, Kobe dropped 81 in an NBA game against NBA level defenders, coaches, strategies and so on and so forth.

What I don't like about the Waffles, as I see them (never wear any) is how unstable the outsole looks. With all kinds of bumps in and out of the sole, it looks like you'd trip yourself over any time, any moment.

Two guys are sitting on a bar stool. One starts to insult the other one. He screams, "I slept with your mother!" The bar gets quiet as everyone listens to see what the other weasel will do. The first again yells, "I SLEPT WITH YOUR MOTHER!"
The other says, "Go home dad you're drunk."
