What a comeback by Pelicans. 100-107 with 1:43 left

Shame they couldn't keep it going.

As soon as the the guard, not sure what his name is, took that 3pt attempt and clanged it, i was like damn, there goes that run. They were getting inside looks well but were so cold from outside. Not sure why that guard ruined the flow when they just had to keep feeding AD inside. That's annoying.

Notes:
For bike intervals I need to take my gymboss next time. using the bike clock doesnt work for intervals i found because it stops when i stop pedalling so i cant 'technically' rest and keep counting ). Bit annoying that. Also this is a new thing for me to obsess about because the concept of poewr on the bike gives me a measurable way to increase my power over time.

Nutrition
Im cutting carbs a bit to 200g today. i found if i drop to 200g, i cant sleep properly but i think that's just something i need to deal with b/c above 150g i should be sleeping well, just need to adapt. Macros for the day are 200g c/40g f/160g p or something around there, not exact. I was actually hungry today, which is something i need to get used to because if im not hungry then im prob not a deficit lol lol.

Rest. Today marks the first day i will be drug free. FInished up with the meds last night. Feels good man.

Mate, if I had to recommend one thing to you for your training right now it'd be the Pallof press and its many variants. I've become a big fan of anti-rotational core exercises. I've been doing a lot of it in lieu of just hammering the abs with crunch-style exercises and I've felt a lot stronger through the core when squatting, plus I don't get left-side back pain/sciatica as much either. YMMV but couldn't hurt to do it EOD.

sounds good, i'll try them out today. In the past when ive tried weighted/cable crunches, ive respond really well, abs get bigger etc but i dont know if that did anything for strength b/c i dont think i benefited from it apart from aesthetically. Will add more variety this time.

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
