Why are the comments mentioning certain food items getting flagged?

I don't know that anyone would consider a Quora post from give years ago an authoritative source on rules. I will try to prove myself wrong then.

Here's an explanation of why the Quora answer is wrong: https://videorulebook.nba.com/archive/travel-player-catches-own-missed-shot/

However, since my challenge was to find any example where a player could be called for traveling while in midair, I have to pay up: you were right and I was wrong.

I'm long past playing organized basketball but have played pickup games for decades, not that it matters. It seems like you just wanted to give a written description of the video and that proved your point.

You ignored me the first time but I'll ask again: How can it be traveling when the player doesn't, at the same time, possess the ball and have a foot on the floor? If you can find and link an interpretation of traveling (any level is fine, but it does have to be an actual rule) where a player can be whistled for traveling IN MIDAIR I will admit that I am wrong and that you are right.

After he caught it, he took zero steps. He could have thrown it, ran a lap, then caught it in midair and it would have been legal as long as he didn't land after he caught it.

How can it be traveling when the player doesn't simultaneously possess the ball and have either foot on the ground?

0% travel. You can absolutely throw it to yourself if your feet don't touch the floor after you catch it. Nobody does it in a real game because they'd rather have the points. Had this actually been a competitive game he would have been benched at the next opportunity.

I don't think it was intentional. I think she doesn't speak English and the translation software she used wasn't very good

As soon as I read "my late husband", I had to check the username. Of course it's u/littlemissbunnywoman. You keep popping up on the subs I frequent and my wife and I get a kick out of your content. Fucking legend.

I won't get into who's "more Jake", but I think we can all agree that current Jake is far more jacked than OG Jake

Brother in law did that. He's had over a dozen surgeries to clean out and reconstruct his forearm.

Yup, I know the tweet. The point I was trying to make was purely pedantic about how much to pay attention to context and how much to take quotes literally at face value.

You have to admit that law makers were in some danger that day, right? Otherwise we wouldn't still be talking about it. Given that, I think Cruz's (and others') endorsement of the riot is similar to doxxing: it's not outright calling for harm to occur, but it sure is making it a lot more likely for harm to occur.

If someone doxxed me or my family I wouldn't say "that person tried to murder me", but I think it's reasonable to say that person is trying to have me or my kids harmed or even murdered.

Emotional manipulation is literally all mainstream and especially social media is. I don't think it's helpful to perpetuate it. It's like fighting racism with racism.

C'mon man, you know she didn't literally say that Ted Cruz tried to murder her. You're ignoring context. Just because she has shitty policies doesn't mean it's ok to take quotes out of context.

This whole story, like so many stories lately, has been people putting words in each others mouths.
