Marcus Smart hit 5 threes in the first 4:30 of the 4th quarter but didn't get 6. the only player to hit 6 in a quarter of a playoff game is motherfucking 'Toine. The situation is excellent. Salvor_Hardin fucked around with this message at 01:24 on Sep 2, 2020 |

Rick posted:I honestly think sports specialization has offset any gains in injury prevention from minute reduction. Doing nothing but basketball puts stress on the same muscles and bones you will use as an adult much younger. Wilt was decently high level track athlete and Kareem had other interest than athletics. No AAU ball traveling teams etc. I can see that logic. I wonder how much of an effect on the length of careers using "medicines" like bute had on older players. (a painkiller no longer approved for human use.) I'm assuming it caused a lot of players to have long term problems after their careers were over but have never looked into it.

Declan MacManus posted:yeah i can’t remember if daltos brought it up or if i read it on my own, but cross training in various sports is way better for your body even if you specialize in one and it encourages good biomechanical form (for example, if you do track, you’re not going to be running with heel strikes for very long, and if you play football, you’re going to learn how to gradually slow down your momentum with a full head of steam, and other stuff like that) I think AAU is good in the sense that it gives people opportunities that would not otherwise be there. But yeah I agree I wish that kids could be kids and it wasn’t a year round thing.

Mitchell must be kicking himself. If he would have ran back he might have been in stride for a pass from Conley for a closer shot. The way it ended up he was wide open but cut off because Conley had to move the ball up the court. I don't blame him you lose the ball there it's almost for sure an insta foul or the Nuggs run it out. So brutal
