"greek-Bros": Golden Showers

Athena: and THIS is the internet. *Shows a classic MacBook desktop computer*

Perseus, Heracles, Asterion and Achilles: oooooooooooooh. Aaaaaaahhhh.

Athena: yes. It is strictly used for educational and research purposes only, I put a parental lock on it so that no one here in Olympus can see the more...um...crude.... Side of the internet. Anyway have fun and please don't click any links sources you don't know and especially if you see them being sent from an email called *looks at her notes* "[email protected]" ....that would Ares's email address and he only sends malware. *Leaves*

Perseus: *already looking up what others know about him and his other demigods* hehehehe

Heracles: hmmmm it seem I have several...."movies" about me. I am truly flattered, but it seems they've all misspelled my name.

Achilles: *marvels at the one poster for the movie Troy having no context to it's a level of inaccuracy it has* ... 10/10 casting.

Asterion: *not incredibly interested but he does find it amusing to see there's a whole slew of nice pictures of cows* mmm.

Perseus: pssh. You guys are too busy looking up things about yourselves when you can clearly look up something a lot more interesting. *Starts surfing until he finds Urban dictionary* oh sweet I wonder what this site does.

*hours later*

Zeus: *reading a newspaper* ... *Flips a page*

Perseus: *kicks down the door with a fury of a thousand white dwarf stars* DAD HOLY FUK!

Zeus: GAH! *nearly gets a heart attack* PERSEUS WHAT ON E-

Perseus: *with tears of fear in his eyes gritting his teeth* DID YOU PISS ON MOM?!?!

Zeus: *completely dumbfounded* ...I beg your pardon?

Heracles: *deep sigh* we looked up what "Golden Shower" means. Apparently it's the sexual act of urinating on someone

Zeus: *horrified* Wut?! I would never!

Perseus: *on the brink of crying* TELL ME THE TRUTH DAD DID YOU PEE ON MOM?!?

Hera: *trollfully walks in and with the most sarcasm a goddess can muster* Oh what's this? Zeus do you have anything ELSE to severely disappoint me with?

Zeus: *trying to remember how it happened*...ah I remember, you see Perseus, I wanted to avoid making a lot of noise seeing how your dear mother was trapped in a tower...so I simple turned into rain, the gold part must have been from the ambrosia I had a little while prior. I would never do such an unsanitary thing.

Hera: *disappointed that she wasn't actually further disappointed* ugh, if anyone wants me I'm taking a nap. So don't disturb me.

Perseus: *calmed down a little bit* o...oh ok....*sniffles*

Heracles: *pats his back* there there.

Zeus: ....oh wait hold on, I turned into rain with edible glitter in it so that afterwards it would could count as after care. That...and I had a lot of inspiration from that OO7 movie, ...what was it...Gold Finger...yes...

Perseus: ....ok that's a little weird but it's better than piss.....

Heracles: well all is good than.

Achilles: ZEUS! I NEED MONEY!

Zeus: What?! What for?!

Asterion: *holding on to an online bid for Achilles, who has decided to bid on a dining room table* ....*sees someone bid $1 more so he raised it but $500, let's just say Asterion doesn't know how math works* .... :)

The Rise of Skywalker - adding my very important opinion to the internet.

Opinions are like **holes, everyone has one. Just that this isn’t true. People rarely substitute theirs with someoelse’s **hole.

Looking back at some of my predictions I was wrong about some major plot points. I always said that the Bendemption and Reylo would make me walk out of the cinema. I thought it would be the two things that would ruin Star Wars for me and quite arrogantly assumed it’s ‘too stupid for Star Wars’.

Now.. I stand corrected. To be honest, after the premiere I didn’t know what to think. Like everyone else I had this idea what the movie should be in my head. All the puzzle pieces I put together to a picture I liked. All the clues that lead my to my own personal conclusion. And like everyone else I saw the movie through this filter.

I have to divert a bit to explain what I mean.

A Zen master was asked about Zen by a critical guest. Instead of answering he filled the guest’s teacup but did not stop pouring when the cup was full and the tea spilled out and ran over the table.

"Stop! The cup is full!" said the guest.

"Exactly," said the Zen Master. "You are like this cup; you are full of ideas. You come and ask for teaching, but your cup is full; I can't put anything in. Before I can teach you, you'll have to empty your cup."

Letting go of our expectations is hard. Very hard. There is comfort in the familiar. There is stubbornness in wanting to be right. The unknown is scary and we want to be in control of our own narrative. So I watched the movie again and saw it for what it is. I’m gonna be honest. I am a ‘true believer’ and apologist. I will find goodness in every bit. If you want to find mistakes you will find them. Psychologically we mostly make up our minds whether or not we’ll like the movie before we see it subconsciously. Then we just look for proof we’re right. I didn’t really want to see Joker. I expected it to be a pretentious attempt to make a Scorsese 70ies movie while lacking substance. And that’s exactly what I’ve got. Knowing what to expect in the 2nd viewing I was able to appreciate it more. There is so much depth and love for Star Wars in it that’s not apparent if you walk out of the 1st screening snubbed about what you don’t understand. I sound like a broken record when I say Star Wars is not a Comic Book movie, not everything has to be explained or tie into everything perfectly. Just look at the Original Trilogy. Nothing is 100% clear. Obi Wan is twisting the truth and nothing aligns perfectly. Star Wars is like a Greek myth. WHY did Thetis dip Achilles in the river Styx? What was her motivation? How could she forget to dip his heel? That’s stupid. That’s RUINING Greek mythology.

I liked the movie, very much. I’m not even sure if it might not be my favorite sequel. Before I go into my thoughts here is what I didn’t like.

I liked it, yes, but that doesn’t keep me from agreeing that it seemed like a mash-up of fan-service. And with fan service I mean the kind of parents who have no idea would give their kids. ‘You like your Nintendos, right? The man at the shop said this is as good.’ It somehow felt like a panicked corporate decision to undo the backlash after The Last Jedi (a movie I have seen 13 times in the cinema and now consider to be the weakest installment since Attack of the Clones), so they mistook the loudest voices on the internet to be the most representative for all fans. So they had to include Bendemption and Reylo because ..fanfiction.. ?! And people have long asked for ‘bring back Legends’ so throw in a bit of that. And then we need Han Solo and the Emperor to save this trilogy after we made the mistake of not overseeing what these film makers actually do and have an overall idea for the trilogy and Rian Johnson wrote the story into a corner. The Last Jedi felt more like the 3rd movie of a trilogy, so what are we gonna do? Rey has to be SOMEONE, right? How about the emperor is suddenly interested in his bloodline for some reason despite the Sith never having cared about that (what is her midi-chlorian count?).

But I can live with all of that and I have my explanations for everything. Palpatines son who must’ve been born after his face got all f**ked up. So was he a clone? Some sort of attempt to create life like Anakin? An artificially created baby like the Nazis did to get a super soldier, just to be able to possess his body and when he ran off and fled he was more interested in his ‘granddaughter’ because her body was even younger? Did the force skip a generation like some diseases. Not everything has to be answered, but it’s fun to think about these things. I find this to be more Star Wars than the thought he had a wife all the time, which is absolutely not in character.

The one thing I didn’t like was the super cringy, cheap jump-scare with monster teeth during the Dark Rey scene. We have seen this too often. It’s not ‘worthy of Star Wars’. It didn’t even look good in IT or any other movie.

And the kiss? Would I have cut it out if I’d have something to say. YES DEFINITELY. Do I think it’s romantic and actually hints to romantic feelings? HELL NO! In my opinion their bond is different. Calling it romantic undermines their connection and ridicules something that could be very deep. Kylo/Ben even says it, they are a Dyad. Whatever that means, it surely doesn’t mean something straight-out of Twilight. I see the kiss as relief, burst of emotion. Not unlike a kiss a mother would give a child that has been missing or rescued from peril. Affection yes, romance no (aka ‘no tongue’). The beauty of it is that it’s ambiguous. If you want them to be in love, then you can think that for yourself, probably wondering why she is not really grieving.

I said I’d hate Bendemption and many people have stated that Ben should’ve survived. No offense but this is completely missing the point. The way his redemption is portrayed is absolutely beautiful. The shame and regret in Ben that leads him to the realization what he needs to do is what makes his who he is. He says it himself. He can’t go back to his mother. She sacrificed herself for him. He killed his father. Everything is lost for him. He made so many mistakes. But he can do the right thing for once by saving Rey. And this is why he disappears. This is why he became one with the force. If it he’d have survived there wouldn’t have been a redemption. Ben Solo was ‘weak and foolish’ which led him to the dark side. Ben Solo is flawed, the good in him understood that to kill the looming darkness he has to sacrifice himself. Like the Terminator at the end of Judgement day. This is what made the scene so powerful and mirrored Vader. Ironically you could say he finally became like Vader in the last moments of his life.

As for the emperor being alive. Why not. If you’re that sort of badass and considering that Maul and Vader both survived major injuries with the aid of the dark side of the force it’s not that unlikely. And here is something some people seem to miss. He is desperately looking for a new vessel to transfer his spirit into because he is a corpse. He is a corpse on life support. As hinted at in the movie and as explained in the visual dictionary he is being kept ‘alive’ by a mixture of medical aids and Sith alchemy. One might argue that ‘we never heard about Sith cultists and all that’ but that’s not entirely true. Even outside of the books, comics and what not there are things you can easily retcon to fit the narrative. Just look at the emperors advisors in Return of the Jedi. At the time of The Force Awakens there have been theories that Snoke is nothing but a puppet. I have used the Wizard of Oz comparison before. When we got to see him ‘in the flesh’ in The Last Jedi we were nothing the wiser. So that somehow adds up.

Chewie got a medal now? Well that just serves to show what I always say: no one in the cinematic universe cares a great deal about books and comics. A lot of fans are always so eager to see stuff from canon in the movies and get upset when there are contradictions (also see S-foil from Lukes X-wing being used as door) but I think it’s best to consider whatever is not in the movies as ‘soft canon’ and take it with a grain of salt. This might change in the future now that Star Wars is free of the shackles of the Skywalker saga and it;’s very likely they learned from the lack of consistency, but it also opens it up to mediocracy and weird stuff like the world between worlds and space whales.

If you only watched the movie once there are many things that might have slipped by you. Which is a shame. I think some f the outspoken critics will change their minds about the movie over time. A lot of the emotional backbone of the movie was in these tiny moments, such as the scene in which Rey feels that she won’t see Leia again and has to say good bye. It is in the open whether or not Leia feels it too and just taunts her by saying ‘tell me when you're back’.

Let me just say that Rose is absolutely cool in this. I always maintained the position that the backlash against her character was mostly based on the weak costume design that made her more like like a cosplayer. Now that she looked the part she was fantastic. It’s not about quantity. Her screen time was impactful. The argument that JJ cut her screen time in favor of his buddies is ridiculous and uninformed. Everyone had their specific parts to serve the story. According to the visual dictionary Dominic Monaghans character was a former teacher and served as the ‘Sith’ expert to explain why the Resistance wasn’t collectively going ‘umm wut?’ when they heard about Palpatine being back and all that. Greg Grunberg was the link to the fleet and Rose was at the heart of operations. I can't understand how this isn’t obvious.

And in conclusion let’s talk about the impossible task to end a 9 part saga, with the additional challenge of having lost Carrie Fisher. Can you even imagine being in that predicament? How did JJ Abrams say yes to this? Well knowing that he’d get shit from all sides. RESPECT! It is a miracle the movie turned out the way it did. I liked it and if we look at the numbers of things I didn’t like in the other movies despite liking them it might become my favorite or close 2nd of the sequel trilogy over time. Only this blade tells.

sONG OF ACHILLES YES FUCK ILOVE THT BITCH SM,, wut were ur fav parts????

you could say i have a few. i’m just gonna ramble

one of the first admissions of love from either of them; i think it goes both ways, with patroclus finding strength enough to voice his frustration and say “you’re good, too good” and achilles, saying something like “and yet here i am with you” its just like. a good moment where patroclus can give in and realize that achilles does revere him as much as he does achilles

patroclus saying he’d know achilles anywhere; and then proving it, later:

“had she really thought i would not know him?” followed by easily my favorite quote of the book. it just like, hurts, my man. i can’t imagine a love like this. the way it’s worded, it makes the two above passages seem like theyre calling back to eachother like a cyclical poem, it’s just really pretty to me? i like when things refer back to something said ages ago. what can i say im a slut for this kind of romance

the quiet sense of doom that u just get used to. hm. know that ! a lot of patroclus’ inner discourse has to do with knowing they have a time limit and whether he should accept it or strike bitterly at it and eventually settles into a kind of very still fear

this is a lot but like. hear me out. patroclus being fucking pissed at achilles for letting agamemnon take briseis and the sourness between them here is what makes their relationship so multidimensional, because even though they’ve hardly been apart in their lives and become extensions of eachother as much as they have grown into themselves, they still shock eachother and they each do awful things here, to eachother. achilles makes his mistake and patroclus makes his, of informing agamemnon (it keeps briseis safe, yes, but is a first wedge between he and achilles) it’s heart wrenching. patroclus has shown anger before, anger and frustration are kind of a basis of his character (anger strikes the blow at the boy he kills, jealousy keeps him from trusting achilles at first, and frustration and jealousy eat him for the duration of their relationship) and i feel like this section also surprises the reader. i felt the same shock as patroclus at achilles, because it has never seemed like honor was something achilles esteemed. he even says so earlier, in reference to sharing a tent with patroclus in front of all the men:

speaking of patroclus’ rage, its not really just that he feels towards knowing they have such little time together. (also, may i add, in my opinion, they got a hell of a lot more than most tragic romances get. 10 years at war is still 10 years together) he’s suicidal like, the whole time. if achilles goes, he goes. he’s just quietly accepted it.

everyone always thinks they have someone they’d die for. or that they’d kill themselves without. u cannot consider this a truth unless you are patroclus and your other is achilles. they are the only true examples of love ever on this earth, thank you and goodnight

#Anonymous #answered #long post #tsoa #the song of achilles #i'm still very fresh from reading this i just finished this today so im like #still gathering my thoughts. still pondering. still figuring out some meanings #i interpreted most of it in a very me way though lol #and all of my little highlighted bits are very me because i save words i think are pretty or tragic or that have a big oof when you read the #thenk u for asking even if no one reads all this drivel #personal

I read the ask about the softboi!n*zi and was like uhhhh wut? So i went to good ol' goodreads to read the synopsis just to find that basically everyone on my friendlist has it on their tbr???? 😐😶 now i'm just more surprised how all these people know it while i never heard of it (same with Song of Achilles lol, i was suddenly getting recs for it from 5 different people who had no connection to each other 😆 i'm excited to read that tho)

I feel like "softboi" is not exactly the correct term to describe the character tho... especially when combined with the rest... but i'm sure its a good book

Yeah I have never heard of this book until the anon had said something. I just got song of Achilles for my bday and I hope to read it soon, I put it off forever bc it honestly just soundly like bad contemporary to me but it’s got Greek gods and all that so then I got excited! And no, I don’t think the word softboy was the way to describe it😭

#ugly pastels #I should honestly make a goodreads #it would definitely help me keep track of my books ive read this year bc so far I have read 10 books

Spikenard ätherisches Öl essential oil

In der Antike galt Spikenard als eines der wertvollsten Öle. Es wurde als Parfüm, Medizin und in religiösen Kontexten auf einem weiten Gebiet von Indien bis Europa verwendet.

Biblisch wird darauf bezuggenommen, als Maria von Bethanien ein Jahr Lohn verbrachte, um dieses Öl zu kaufen und die Füße Jesu vor dem Letzten Abendmahl zu salben.

Spikenard Öl wird als pflanzliche Medizin verwendet, um Schlaflosigkeit, Stress, Verdauungsprobleme, schwaches Immunsystem und Infektionen natürlich zu behandeln. In der ayurvedischen Medizin, Es wird für eine Reihe von gesundheitlichen Bedingungen verwendet, von Schlafstörungen und Depressionen, um chronische Müdigkeit SmüdigkeitSsyndrom.

Alte Heiler wussten, dass diese bemerkenswerte Pflanze verwendet werden konnte, um sicher und effektiv gemeinsame Gesundheitsbedenken zu verbessern.

Was ist Spikenard?

Spikenard, auch Nard, Nardin und Moschus, ist eine blühende Pflanze aus der Familie der Baldrian -Familie (Nardostachys jatamansi). Er wächst im Himalaya Nepals, Chinas und Indiens und wird in Höhen von etwa 10.000 Fuß gefunden.

Die Pflanze wächst etwa drei Fuß hoch und hat rosa, glockenförmige Blüten. Spikenard zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass viele haarige Spitzen aus einer Wurzel schießen, und es wird von den Arabern "die indische Spitze" genannt.

Die Stiele der Pflanze, Rhizome genannt, werden zerkleinert und in ein ätherisches Öl destilliert, das ein intensives Aroma und Bernsteinfarbe hat. Es hat einen schweren, süßen, holzigen und würzigen Geruch, der dem Geruch von Moos ähneln soll. Das Öl mischt sich gut mit ätherischen Ölen aus Weihrauch, Geranien, Patchouli, Lavendel, Vetiver und Myrrheölen.

Spikenard ätherisches Öl wird durch Dampfdestillation des Harzes aus dieser Pflanze gewonnen extrahiert — seine Hauptkomponenten sind Aristolene, Calarene, Clalarenol, Cumarin, Dihydroazulene, Jatamanshinsäure, Nardol, Nardostachon, Baldrian, valeranal und Valeranon.

Laut Forschung, das ätherische Öl aus den Wurzeln von Spikenard erhalten zeigen Pilze toxische Aktivität, antimikrobielle, antimykotische, blutdrucksenkende, antiarrhythmische und antikonvulsive Aktivität. Die mit 50 Prozent Ethanol extrahierten Rhizome zeigen hepatoprotektive, hypolipidemische und antiarrhythmische Aktivität.

Der pulverisierte Stamm dieser nützlichen Pflanze wird auch intern genommen, um die Gebärmutter zu reinigen, bei Unfruchtbarkeit zu helfen und Menstruationsstörungen zu behandeln.

Vorteile

1. Bekämpft Bakterien und Pilze

Spikenard stoppt das bakterienwachstum auf der Haut und im Körper. Auf der Haut wird es auf Wunden aufgetragen, um Bakterien abzutöten und bei der Wundversorgung zu helfen. Im Inneren des Körpers behandelt Spikenard bakterielle Infektionen in den Nieren, Harnblase und Harnröhre. Es ist auch bekannt, behandeln ZehennagelPilz, Fuß des Sportlers, Tetanus, Cholera und Lebensmittelvergiftung zu behandeln.

Eine Studie am Western Regional Research Center in Kalifornien hat die bakterizide Aktivität von 96 ätherischen Ölen untersucht. Spikenard war eines der Öle, die am aktivsten gegen C. jejuni, eine Art von Bakterien häufig in tierischen Kot gefunden. C. jejuni ist eine der häufigsten Ursachen für menschliche Gastroenteritis in der Welt.

Spikenard ist auch antimykotisch, so fördert es die Gesundheit der Haut und hilft, Beschwerden durch Pilzinfektionen verursacht zu heilen. Diese leistungsstarke Pflanze ist in der Lage, Juckreiz zu lindern, Flecken auf der Haut zu behandeln und Dermatitis zu behandeln.

2. Lindert Entzündungen

Spikenard ätherisches Öl ist extrem vorteilhaft für Ihre Gesundheit wegen seiner Fähigkeit, Entzündungen im ganzen Körper zu bekämpfen. Entzündungen sind die Wurzel der meisten Krankheiten und es ist gefährlich für Ihre Nerven, Verdauungs- und Atemwege.

Eine Studie aus dem Jahr 2010 an der School of Oriental Medicine in Südkorea untersuchte die Wirkung von Spikenard auf die akute Pankreatitis – eine plötzliche Entzündung der Bauchspeicheldrüse, die von leichten Beschwerden bis hin zu einer lebensbedrohlichen Krankheit reichen kann. Die Ergebnisse deuten darauf hin, dass die Spikenard-Behandlung die Schwere der akuten Pankreatitis und Pankreatitis-assoziierte Lungenverletzung schwächte; Dies beweist, dass Spikenard als entzündungshemmendes Mittel dient.

3. Entspannt Geist und Körper

Spikenard ist ein entspannendes und beruhigendes Öl für Die Haut und den Geist; es wird als Beruhigungsmittel und beruhigendes Mittel verwendet. Es ist auch ein natürliches Kühlmittel, so dass es den Geist von Wut und Aggression befreit. Es beruhigt Gefühle von Depression und Unruhe und kann als eine natürliche Möglichkeit dienen, Stress zu lindern.

Eine Studie an der School of Pharmaceutical Science in Japan untersuchte Spikenard auf seine beruhigende Aktivität mit einem spontanen Dampfverwaltungssystem. Die Ergebnisse zeigten, dass Spikenard eine Menge Calaren enthielt und seine Dampfinhalation eine beruhigende Wirkung auf Mäuse hatte.

Die Studie zeigte auch, dass bei der Vermischung ätherischer Öle die beruhigende Reaktion signifikanter war; dies galt insbesondere, wenn Spikenard mit galangalen, Patchouli, Borneol und ätherischen Ölen aus Sandelholz gemischt wurde.

Die gleiche Schule isolierte auch zwei Komponenten von Spikenard, Valerena-4,7(11)-Diene und Beta-Maalien, und beide Verbindungen reduzierten die bewegungsmathematische Aktivität von Mäusen.

Vorteile

1. Bekämpft Bakterien und Pilze

2. Lindert Entzündungen

3. Entspannt Geist und Körper

Die gleiche Schule isolierte auch zwei Komponenten von Spikenard, Valerena-4,7(11)-Diene und Beta-Maalien, und beide Verbindungen reduzierten die bewegungsmathematische Aktivität von Mäusen.

Interessante Fakten

Die Rhizome und Wurzeln der Spikenard-Pflanze werden als Antistress-Mittel in der traditionellen Medizin verwendet, und es wird in Indien als antikonvulsive ayurvedische Droge vermarktet.

Clueless Charley Casserly thinks Dez Bryant played for Cowboys last season

Charley Casserly has been spending a lot of time talking NFL with Stephen A. Smith lately.

Casserly, an analyst at NFL Network, embarrassed himself on Monday while discussing Cole Beasley’s free agency status. He said the Cowboys didn’t utilize Beasley enough because they were throwing the ball to Dez Bryant too much last season.

Casserly just said the reason the #Cowboys didn’t utilize Cole Beasley enough in 2018 is because they “threw the ball to Dez Bryant too much last year”.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Bryant of course was released by the Cowboys last year and declined to sign with interested teams until midway through the year. He eventually signed with the Saints but tore his Achilles’ tendon in his first week with the team and didn’t end up playing in any games.

Casserly has put a target on himself ever since making highly-publicized comments about Kyler Murray’s supposed negative combine performance. You would think he would be on top of his game ever since making that comment, but saying things like this hurts his credibility. Maybe he and Stephen A. should team up for a football show.

Isaiah Thomas is getting his legs back, and that’s good news for the Cavaliers

Thomas is back from his hip injury. Now, he has to get into basketball shape on the fly

Isaiah Thomas and LeBron James connected for two gorgeous alley-oops in the first half of the Cavaliers’ loss to the Warriors on Monday night. The highlight-reel plays were a reminder that even though Cleveland has a swarm of new faces on the roster this season, and even though the team isn’t in championship form just yet, their most important acquisition is getting acclimated to playing in The Land.

IT to @KINGJAMES. RETWEET if you want to see more of this. #NBAVOTE http://pic.twitter.com/dV3onEDz3h

The Cavs have needed IT4

When Cleveland traded Kyrie Irving to the Celtics, they got back Thomas while he was recovering from a midseason hip injury. They later found out that his hip injury needed time to heal and that their new star point guard would be out until the New Year.

The Cavaliers stayed afloat by putting LeBron at point guard — what a genius idea, right? But the brunt of the offensive load, the same load he split with Irving in past seasons, became a burden. Cleveland’s offense started looking one-dimensional.

James is the best player in the world, but even the best need help.

With Thomas returning, The King finally has it.

Thomas scored 19 points against the Warriors on Monday, but it took him 21 shots to get there. That percentage was a bit ugly, but if you’re a Cavaliers fan, coach or player, his shot attempts are a welcome sight.

After all, IT4 missed 35 games before playing in his first game Jan. 2. His matchup with Steph Curry and the Warriors was only his fifth game since returning to the lineup. There’s no way he’s in 100 percent game shape. Eventually, he’ll get there.

“I knew it was going to be like this,” he said on Sunday via ESPN’s Dave McMenamin. “I have no legs. So it’s going to take some time to get it back, even when I played well those first two games I told Coach (Tyronn) Lue it didn’t feel right. It was kind of fool’s gold.”

Thomas is shooting 35 percent from the field and 26 percent from three in his few games back on the court. That’s the least of Cleveland’s worries.

The Cavaliers have other problems they can’t turn their nose at. Cleveland is the 29th worst defense and the oldest team in the NBA. Against younger, athletic teams that run, like Golden State, Houston, Boston and Toronto, that’s one big Achilles heal.

But Isaiah Thomas’s hip, at least at the moment, seems to be perfectly fine, and his on-court chemistry with LeBron is growing every game. Now, he just needs to get his legs under him. If there’s anything that will help the Cavaliers get out of their current slump, it’s IT4 back at his vintage level.

“Once he’s at 100 percent, he won’t miss those wide open 3s,” LeBron said with a smile after the loss to Golden State. “He’s just trying to get his legs back, on the fly, which is very difficult. ... And once he does that, you know it’ll make us even more dynamic.”

When Thomas was in good condition, he revitalized the Celtics and averaged 28.9 points per game to lead them to the best record in the East and an conference Finals mathcup against the Cavaliers. And once he gets his conditioning right this time around, IT4 will be everything LeBron needs and more.

“I’m used to stepping on the court and being special,” he said, via McMenamin. “So now I’ve got to work. I’ve got to work my way back and get my legs back and get my legs back to playing at a high level.”
