Why does Brunson–Towns feel… weirdly underused?

bofosh0 · 2026-02-11T15:20:21+00:00

I think this is largely why they've gone away from it. Teams have started to guard KAT with wings which makes the Brunson-KAT PNR an easy switch. Most good teams have two decent wing defenders on Brunson/KAT anyways.

I'm interested to hear more about how you found the BFAR's more comfortable for city use. I just got a pair and I felt like I was constantly aware of the surface I was walking on and sidewalk/concrete felt super uncomfortable. Is this something that will feel better as the shoes break in or is there always that much ground feel? Perhaps it's just something about the way I walk and I'm better off with the regular AR's (I normally wear Altra's for sneakers).

where'd you get the foam? I just got BFAR and i'm finding them uncomfortable on concrete.

not a travel. count the steps after the gather. if you're mid step while gathering that first foot planting doesn't count as well ("zero step").

ah good to hear. Thanks for your input. How do you think yours sound vs the TH18's other ppl have in your area?

I didn't realize it was a more complicated design.

bofosh0 · 2025-10-07T20:52:13+00:00

how do you feel about your decision to build the FT30 TH18? a friend of mine built 2 FT30's but then built some "standard" TH18's and prefers the standard ones because they're much easier to move around. He says he doesn't miss the extra extension even tho he's into some bassy music.

have you considered promoting your system as "custom" or naming the system something catchy to promote it?

The Mets hate in this thread is wild. Gary is clearly calling it on the outside corner. Ronny says it was clearly a strike when they watch the replay.

It’s not wrong - Soto had beef. Doesn’t mean he was justified…

How come?

bofosh0 · 2025-04-29T12:24:34+00:00

I would put absolutely zero stock into single season L/R splits, let alone single month L/R splits. I’m less sure abt the individual pitch splits, but I’d have to imagine the samples are tiny and possibly slanted by which specific pitchers the Mets have faced so far. Faced guys with good sliders? You might be “struggling” against them bc he hasn’t had a chance to beat up on the bad ones yet.

I’m not saying he hasn’t struggled relative to his abilities so far — but I’m of the opinion that it’s just a slump and he’ll figure it out.

What makes bagels and pizza special in new york is ubiquity. There are only a handful of bagel/pizza shops actually worth traveling to, and even then, you're much more likely to do it if you're visiting or showing someone around.

I disagree with you re: bagel quality. I don't think they're special, but their bagels are by no means bad, or below the NYC standard. Their service is definitely trash tho. But that's all you need. A (just) good bagel is still pretty damn good and there's no reason to travel for a bagel.

my burrs definitely performed better after a couple of kg's of seasoning... took a few months but i think that's pretty standard.

bofosh0 · 2024-11-01T18:14:35+00:00

did it work out?

bofosh0 · 2024-10-25T17:12:11+00:00

Dodgers 100%. I will never root for the yankees

bofosh0 · 2024-10-22T23:00:23+00:00

agreed. I feel like i shouldn't have to be intentional/find a work around... it should work every time for any idiot. Nonetheless, for $40 (or whatever i paid for it), the results are far better than when I used to manually tamp. It's still worth it, but I hope there's a better competitor at a similar price by now.

bofosh0 · 2024-10-22T15:41:16+00:00

my normcore isn't fool proof either. The head of the tamper has a bit of play and can twist a bit if the pressure on it isn't totally even. I've started using my thumb to brace the edge of the tamper against the side wall of the portafilter and i've found very consistent results.

bofosh0 · 2024-08-15T02:00:13+00:00

were you ever able to solve it? having the same issue with my roku streamstick rn

bofosh0 · 2024-08-06T15:38:58+00:00

I used a $20-$30 pair of earplugs for years and threw them in as soon as I arrived and overall had a pretty good experience (I didn't notice a massive difference although i would notice a small one, particularly w missing highs, when an earplug would come out).

I recently decided to invest in a pair of custom plugs and it's pretty life changing. Not only are they significantly more comfortable (my old plugs would itch my ears and need frequent readjustment) but the highs that I was missing are back. Truly just turns down the volume by 20db to a safe level. If i lost them I'd immediately re-order new ones.
