NBA 2025-26 Season Thread: THE NY KNICKS ARE CHAMPIONS! BING BONG!
Lettuce NBA!
and lettuce lol @ James Harden
It's really easy to take creatine, and it's cheap, and lots of influencers lately are pushing high dose creatine. I'm surprised I haven't heard more of this.
Very casual here but I've been taking 3g every day since a couple years and literally haven't noticed anything. what's the science behind pushing the creating consumption so high?
Baseball teams were bunting for over a 100 years in spots they never do anymore because it took decades before the managers would listen to some math and logic.
This isn't exactly correct. No one even tried to do the math related to sacrifice bunts until the 1980s, much less convince MLB managers of the math. Earl Weaver was famously anti-sac bunt in the 1970s, but his opposition was based mainly on intuition, not math.
Baseball intuition is a funny thing. Ted Williams wrote a book in 1971 called The Science of Hitting that was decades ahead of its time. He made several points in that book that were mainly based on his intuition and that advanced data analytics later proved to be very correct. For example, he advocated against a flat swing plane and for a slightly upward swing plane. He emphasized the importance of getting a good pitch to hit within the strike zone. He famously included a heat graph map for hitters on pitches in the strike zone that turned out to be largely accurate.
He also advocated for taking the first pitch and speculated that hitting outcomes almost certainly were worse when a batter swung at the first pitch. This piece of intuition turned out to be very, very wrong. In fairness to Williams, this last thing was almost the only piece of advice in that entire book that turned out to be wrong.
And Ted Williams barely finished high school. Imagine what the people who didnt care to write books were saying
Man stfu and reveal the order already.
Who are all these nobodies representing their teams at the draft.
One team was smart to have an an attractive lady.
But if you're a gm then why are you showing your face.
Utah, Memphis, Chicago and Wiz.
What a terrible Top 4.
Ivica Zubac all of a sudden the guy with the most pressure on his shoulders next season
Damn Philly feels like a Knicks crowd in q1
The amount of knicks fan is actually shocking
Get out the brooms
Embiid doesn't have what it takes to make a conference finals.
At least none of the knicks’ players are on the court to get injured while this series is 100% over

I mean the fitness and strength stuff for a long time has mostly suggested small doses 3-5g. Maybe up to 10g for a much bigger athlete. Even the "loading phase" that used to be promoted is mostly an old school idea that people don't do anymore. But lately there's been a ton of health influencers pushing larger doses, although most of that is promoting creatine as being good for your brain.
Wow, Wemby lost his cool there ; the excessive Wolves contact got to him... Flagrant foul 2 ejection!!!
Joel Embiid remains the only MVP in NBA history to never reach the Conference Finals
related: stole that mvp from joker. embuust is such a fraud
wemby hyped watching UFC last night i guess
Kornet too good
Welp. It’s a Best of 3 now.
I wouldn’t feel great about having 5 figures riding on this series for the Spurs, right about meow.
