Existe uma regra não oficial na NBA chamada Lawler’s Law: o primeiro time a chegar aos 100 pontos vence o jogo. E não é só folclore. Desde 1996-97, acertou 24.220 vezes em 26.438 partidas, uma taxa absurda de 91,61%.
O último time a desafiar essa lógica havia sido o Brooklyn Nets. Em 12 de outubro de 2025, os Nets venceram o Suns por 111 a 109 mesmo vendo Phoenix abrir 101 a 92 após ser o primeiro a alcançar os 100 pontos.
Foram exatos 241 dias até alguém repetir o feito.
E aí chegaram os Knicks. Hoje.
Perdendo por 29 pontos em pleno Jogo 4 das Finais, Nova York não só protagonizou a maior virada da história da série decisiva, como também rasgou uma das estatísticas mais confiáveis do basquete. A Lawler’s Law virou apenas um detalhe diante de um time que se recusa a aceitar que o roteiro já está escrito.
Agora, o Madison Square Garden vive algo que parecia impossível há algumas horas: os Knicks estão a uma vitória mágica do título da NBA.
Quando as odds apontavam para o inevitável, Nova York escolheu acreditar no improvável. E é assim que campeões são forjados.
This paragraph by Haruki Murakami hits very hard:
“Once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.”
Founder of lululemon on what he'd tell every 25 year old:
"I'd tell them that every person in the world is an individual with a different genetic makeup and a different upbringing and the way that you're thinking is so radically different than every other person in the world and incomparable that if you have an idea and you want to move forward with it, don't worry so much about the competition because nobody will be able to replicate you and the way you think about it."
Matthew McConaughey reveals sleep was a sin in his household
“Hustle, hustle, hustle. Sleep was sin in my household”
“If it was daylight, you couldn't be inside. 30 minutes of TV a night max”
“Mom would always say, ‘Why are you going to watch someone doing something when you can go out in the world and do it yourself? Turn that damn thing off. Get outside’”
“You had to be outside. Like, go get out in the world. Go hustle. Figure it out. Be home at dark. That was just the understood rule”
