I LOVE how they’ve used the Trae Young example to demonstrate a defensive foul.

I’ve defended this move for the entirety of last season. It’s one of Trae’s most common moves to get to the line (ignoring deliberate fouls) and FWIW I’ve never seen it look anything like Curry’s.

Here is an example of a non-basketball move where the offensive player veers off his path into the defender in an abrupt manner.

@BTRowland Have you seen the light Brad?

[Brad Rowland @BTRowland]

@ElliottGClark @atIhawkss @andlankell you (and andrew) are both higher on white than me, which is fine

he's a good player for sure, though

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

@Domo8186 He’s improved loads on defense this season, especially since the All-Star break. More energy, quick feet and fast hands - he was good tonight on both ends.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

This is pretty cool. Maybe one of my favourite interviews with an NBA player I’ve listened to in a while.

[JJ Redick @jj_redick]

Paul George on recognizing that in order to give himself the best chance to win he had to take a secondary role. Fascinating insight from an All-NBA player. @Yg_Trece

@willis_glen Murray must’ve had one in the 2nd. But also, who cares right now.

@HappyVegan19 @Carniore1 How do we identify ‘fake vegans’ now?

The impact he had as a vegan is more than most other individual vegans. Certainly larger than mine.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

@HappyVegan19 @Carniore1 But not always. You could become convinced of moral nihilism, or become a literalist of a religion that doesn’t prohibit animal products. Or you could be medically advices otherwise.

Feels like a no true Scotsman fallacy you’re making.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

@SCMelville wouldn’t blame him for that. Or anyone trying. I also think Alex is unlikely to abandon animal ethics altogether.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

@SCMelville It’s plausible he may have been unwell, I believe that. Also plausible he may not have approached the diet healthily *or* seeked medical advice. I think it’s arguably harder to attain good health on a vegan diet (not inherently, just because it’s a minority diet). So I…

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

He’s such a professional man. Be gutted when he eventually leaves.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

@ThaRealBenCohen Hahaha I miss K’von man

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

Who is the coolest Hawk of the Trae Young era?

I have two in mind; Lou Williams and DeAndre’ Bembry.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

@mjlawww Lakers, Mavs and Heat should probably be interested. But I’d be real weary giving a lot up for him, swear he was close to retiring a year ago.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

This is a horrific article, void of common sense.

There’s an argument Kyrie is better than Trae when he plays. But it’s not definitively true, you can make a strong case for Trae.

*But* Trae is in infinitely healthier (or available), younger and on a better contract.

[The Athletic NBA @TheAthleticNBA]

Atlanta checks the boxes for the ability to execute a Kyrie Irving trade and the desperation to follow through with it.

How about Trae Young for Kyrie? The Hawks surely turn that down, but what if the Nets sweeten the pot?

@mjlawww It’s so stupid 😂😂, no team would trade an All Star for him. He’s literally the least dependable player in the league right now.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

There’s rumours with Trae off-court and in the dressing room that aren’t great… but nothing compared to Kyrie disruptions.

Perhaps even more laughable is the attempt to ‘sweeten the deal’. I wouldn’t trade Collins straight up for Harris and a 1st either.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

@blibberbl0b @FingolCommunist 2. No - at least that’s not something I’d push for? I want everyone to be vegan though and I would try encourage people to make the more compassionate choice and take responsibility for their behaviour.

[Елліот Ґодфрі-Кларк @ElliottGClark]

@blibberbl0b @FingolCommunist Veganism isn’t that new, there are records of Syrian vegan philosophers over 1000 years ago. And records of vegetarians (some likely without dairy and egg products) 2500 years ago.

But I agree there isn’t much research. Especially longitudinal studies.
