@Mookie__Bets @LockCity_USA @TheHoopCentral LaMelo is tied for 4th in pts diff among guards. Ur narrative is cooked. He does not give up more pts on def than he creates. They tried to hunt him tonight in playoff level competition and the strategy failed.

@dc_scotti @LockCity_USA @TheHoopCentral “Playoff level competition.” Brother I got news for you. The Miami Heat win like 28 games w/o Bam. Hornets don’t even get outta this game if he doesn’t miss the last 3 quarters. He was hunted constantly tonight bc that’s what happens in the playoffs. Coaches hunt your weakness.

@dc_scotti @LockCity_USA @TheHoopCentral Nice try sighting a ONE game rating. Here’s the real truth. And just wait until you see what that d-rating looks like as he plays more & more playoff games when teams are actually drilling matchups and not fucking around.
English
@Mookie__Bets @LockCity_USA @TheHoopCentral Ur a liar.
Historic offense when he’s on the floor. Their defense is virtually the same when he’s off it.
English
@LockCity_USA @TheHoopCentral You’re kidding yourself. He makes too many losing basketball plays. They’ll be even more pronounced when they start playing more playoff basketball when the opponent is always focused & playing defense.

@MoneyMirCEO @Boss_Tweed14 You're being disingenuous. We all know what a "trade" means colloquially. Stop being a square bro and get with the program.

@Boss_Tweed14 Are you retarded????? Nursing is a trade, IT is a trade, cooking is a trade, why tf y’all automatically think a “trade” is back breaking work??

@hexadri_ @RecruitBoss @AvengersUpdated The trades break it down just like how Matt said. After Sinners, many of are aware of splits. It needs 1.2.

@RecruitBoss @AvengersUpdated Obviamente, los datos reales solo los tienen los estudios, nosotros lo único que podemos hacer es fiarnos de quienes se dedican profesionalmente (o por hobby) a hacer esas estimaciones.

@mikeroplastics @CryptoMikli Happened to my family. It was so bad that when we exposed it, a US attorney vacated four pleas obtained by her line prosecutors based on lies told by Amazon’s lawyer at Gibson Dunn - a former EDVa prosecutor trying to obtain charges in EDVa

Martin Shkreli exposes how big law firms really operate
“This actually happened to a friend of mine. He worked at Google, at Waymo, and then he left and went to Uber. Google picked up the phone and called a big law firm. They didn’t call the police or the FBI. These big law firms are staffed with people who used to be prosecutors”
“Let’s say you’re a partner at one of these firms and Google calls you. You don’t even have to look into it. Google is your biggest client. They might be paying your firm $10-20 million, and some of that is your salary”
“They call you and say, ‘John, you’ve been my lawyer for eight years. You’ve been representing Google. We just got ripped off by this guy. I need you to call the prosecutors you used to work with and get this guy indicted.’ This poor guy, Andrew, got indicted, and the pretext was that he stole trade secrets”

The case of Nia Wilson. Nia Wilson, a Black woman was brutally stabbed to death by a white man in an obvious hate crime. Sadly you probably never heard about this case because it never fit Americas idea of a cover worthy story. Rip Nia Wilson.

@RVarmaMD @MaryBowdenMD I live in a Blk community and most of the doctors at the Med Star are middle-eastern and Indian. Y’all are discriminating against people and everyone can see it.

I respectfully disagree with that blocking issue. I was on the resident selection committee for h-UCLA for 20 years, we NEVER blocked anyone. If you are familiar with ERAS, you will select many criteria even before you see a candidate's name and picture. Going by the foreign medical schools..maybe you have a point there, but most are American citizens

The math isn’t adding up in our medical schools. We have the residency spots, but we’re blocking U.S. students from filling them while educating a quarter of our workforce from abroad.
Why is the system set up this way?

A couple weeks back I criticized Bill Simmons for his bad journalism and lies about LaMelo. I said that @MELOD1P was top twelve in impact in the league. This is the chart that I pulled it from.
He currently sits at 11th. EPM isolates his independent impact. EPM is lineup-adjusted, opponent-adjusted and role-aware.
@ZachLowe_NBA uses this stat.
Per 75 possessions, which controls for minutes, LaMelo is 26 and 9 on better efficiency over D. White.
@BillSimmons and @kirkgoldsberry needs to be held accountable. I’m serious, this is yellow journalism at this point.

I would really love to hear the case for White over Lamelo. Are writers just committed to writing Lamelo off or something?

Wild to say this when the most recent indictment of a BLM leader was this past December. Tashella Dickerson, who ran BLM-OKC, was charged with embezzling $3.15 million for personal vacations and properties. Patrice Cullors bought a $6 million mansion in LA and $8 million mansion in Canada with BLM money and gave massive contracts worth hundreds of thousands to people in her personal network.
This was on the heels of at least 5 Black men (and 1 Palestinian-American man) connected to the Ferguson protests who died or were killed under curious circumstances (including 2 who were found shot inside of burning cars). Those 6 men were Deandre Joshua, Darren Seals, MarShawn McCarrel, Edward Crawford, Jr., Danye Jones, and Bassem Masri.
So while queer Black intersectionalist women co-opted a movement about lethal state violence targeting Black men, embezzled millions of dollars from that movement, and was largely hostile to the Black men in these spaces (repeating much of the same rhetoric being said in this video), the “conversations that need to be had” are the same old Black Patriarchy myths.
When are Black intersectionalists going to take accountability for co-opting BLM and selling out Black people for more recognition from—and assimilation with—white liberal and corporate America?

@HenriettaSnacks See there? 👀
I told you that yr approach to politics doesn't make any sense
Bcuz how can the politicians do what you want them to do unless you vote for them in the 1st place?
Explain how that works?

Mind you, I am responding to a hardcore DNC troll who literally just told me that no candidate can make any specific promises to Black Americans if they want to get elected. Apparently, we are STUPID for not accepting that. 🙃
THIS is how they keep losing EASY elections.

@HenriettaSnacks It sounds crazy for a Black person to basically say I can't advocate for myself but I must do it for others...and to be conditioned to think that's ok.

@Black_Action @NonHumanMedia1 @BreakingBrown That’s a fact. The only thing they got left now is to attack our ethnic diacritic (the marker we chose) as if organizing our ethnic boundary around lineage is bizarre. It’s not. It never was. They’re about to lose that battle too. Soundly.
DC Scotti@dc_scotti
Black Americans finally reenforcing a durable and salient ethnic boundary is an affront to their whole political project. The leading ethnicity scholar, Andreas Wimmer, who focuses on how ethnic boundaries form and endure, found that the most stable ethnic boundaries are those organized around multigenerational descent (lineage). They don’t weaken the way behavioral or affiliative boundaries do. They persist. Centering lineage is new for us but not for the rest of the world. It’s one of the most well-documented mechanisms of ethnic boundary durability in the field. Pannies are forcing a category with no historically constituted group underneath it, no shared institutions, no common kinship. It’s not solidarity if it forces us to dissolve our own ethnic group.

@NonHumanMedia1 @BreakingBrown Scattered chaotic takes are the only play people can make against ADOS.
Our approach is so data and fact driven that there’s no other option.

This whole argument is the same argument racists have been making for generations but repackaged as “woke”
He's just making the “slavery happened everywhere how dare you Black Americans think you have a unique reparations claim” white racists have been making forever

'There is no such thing as American slavery' I don't usually respond to social media comments, but the #ADOS and #FBA backlash to last week's reparations pod is a teachable moment. Then I open up the mailbag on this week's @makeitplainorg pod. Watch: youtu.be/Dufi57ChQTU
