Despite holding an 18-point lead in the third quarter, the Warriors experienced a barrage from the Nets, which drained their energy. Steve Kerr addressed Golden State's drought in the third quarter following the game. Paul Rutherford-Imagn Images The Warriors struck the Nets with an 11-0 run in at the seven-minute mark of the third quarter, leading Brooklyn head coach Jordi Fernandez to take a game-changing timeout. The Warriors then endured a 13-2 run, which cut their lead to 88-81, with the momentum swinging in the Nets' direction. Kerr assessed the third quarter for the reason the Nets ultimately stole the road win from the Warriors. "I felt like we lost juice again tonight, you know, big lead late in the third and can't close the deal, so just not a lot of energy, not a lot of force, and you open up the door for a team in the modern NBA, and they might make 23s like Brooklyn did tonight," Kerr said. Related: What Has Moses Moody Focused On Developing Offensively? As Kerr mentioned, regarding the statistical advantages, the Nets converted 20 3s on 45 attempts. However, to the Warriors' credit, they managed 19 of 46, which doesn't indicate a vast difference. There is a more boring reason for the Warriors' loss, and it's as fundamental as it gets. The Warriors went 11-17 from the charity stripe, whereas the Nets scored the home team with a 26-30 clip. Considering that the Warriors rank fourth in defensive rating, the Nets' 30 free-throw attempts point to an alarming discrepancy, ultimately leading to the stat that alludes to why the second-best Western Conference team lost to an overachieving but inferior Eastern Conference franchise.

PLB Viet Nam - Genuine bearing distributor in VietnamManchester United teammates Rasmus Hojlund and Amad Diallo exchanged words after the final whistle of a 2-1 victory on Thursday. And manager Ruben Amorin has no problem with it. “For me, it’s a very, very good sign,” Amorin said after his team beat Viktoria Plzen to stay unbeaten in the Europa League. Hojlund scored two goals and hoped for a centering pass from Diallo to go for a hat trick in the final minutes. The Denmark striker didn't get the pass, though. Viktoria had been pushing forward looking for an equalizer, which created space for United counters. On another break shortly afterward, Hojlund opted to keep the ball. The pair then had a heated post-game exchange. “We need to feel something,” Amorin said. “If we need to fight each other, it's like a family. When you don't care, you don't do nothing. When you care — you fight with your brother, with your mother, your father.” AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer

Women are more likely to need walking sticks, wheelchairs and other mobility aids compared to men, but they are less likely to use them, according to a study. And single people are more likely to use mobility tools compared to those who are married, according to researchers from University College London (UCL) and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM). Researchers looked at information from a group of more than 12,000 adults in England aged 50 to 89 who were tracked over a 13-year period. At the start of the study, 8,225 adults had no mobility difficulty and did not use mobility assistive products (MAPs). Some 2,480 were deemed to have “unmet need” and 1,375 were using mobility aids. During the follow-up period, there were 2,313 “transitions” where people went from having no mobility issues to needing some help with getting around. And 1,274 people started to use mobility aids. Compared with men, women were 49% more likely to transition from not needing mobility aids to needing to use them, according to the study which has been published in The Lancet Public Health. But were 21% less likely to go on to use mobility aids when they needed them. The authors said their study showed “barriers to access” for women. For both men and women, with every year that passed during the study period the need for mobility aids increased. People who were older, less educated, less wealthy or reported being disabled were more likely to “transition from no need to unmet need, and from unmet need to use”, the authors said, with this indicating a “higher prevalence of mobility limitations and MAP need overall among these groups”. They added: “Finally, marital or partnership status was not associated with transitioning to unmet need; however, single people were more likely to transition from unmet need to use compared with married or partnered people.” Jamie Danemayer, first author of the study from UCL Computer Science and UCL’s Global Disability Innovation Hub, said: “Our analysis suggests that there is a clear gender gap in access to mobility aids. “Though our data didn’t ascertain the reason why participants weren’t using mobility aids, other research tells us that women are often more likely than men to face obstacles such as cost barriers as a result of well-documented income disparities between genders. “Many mobility aids are designed for men rather than women, which we think may be a factor. “Using mobility aids can also make a disability visible, which can impact the safety and stigma experienced by women, in particular. “There’s a critical need for further research to identify and break down the barriers preventing women from accessing mobility aids that would improve their quality of life.” Professor Cathy Holloway, also from UCL, added: “Not having access to mobility aids when a person needs one can have a big impact on their independence, well-being and quality of life. “Our analysis suggests that women, in particular, regardless of other factors such as education and employment status, are not getting the support that they need.” Professor Shereen Hussein, senior author of the study and lead of the social care group at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, said: “The research provides compelling evidence of gender disparities in accessing assistive technology, suggesting that cost, design bias, and social stigma are likely to disproportionally affect women. “This underscores the need for inclusive, gender-sensitive approaches in the design, production and inclusivity of assistive technologies.”
