Twitters
As Yahoo’s Ball Don’t Lie so eloquently states:
At this point, seemingly half the NBA is on Twitter. It’s a wild world of training updates, questions as to which movies they should go see, and explanations of their Call of Duty prowess.
To which I would add, that seemingly 80% of the players projected to be taken in next June’s draft are on Twitter. So if your really into that sort of thing, here’s an incomplete list of players I’m nearly almost certain are legitimately on Twitter*:
Isiah Thomas (No, not that Isiah Thomas)
Tobias Harris (Private Account)
Malcom Lee (Private Account; also happens to have a sweet poetry blog)
Ben Hansborough (Private Account)
Jamie Skeen (Follower beware, Skeen may need to, ahem, clean up his following list. But in all seriousness if you haven’t figured this out yet, for a lot of athletes, this is their only reason to use Twitter)
Matt Howard (Who, when you search Matt Howard in Twitter, is the 4th result behind Howard Stern, Ronnie Mund, and Norm McDonald. Go figure.)
*Note that this list does not include Kyrie Ivring, who apparently quit Twitter after he was bizarrely harassed
BONUS: Three accounts that might possibly be fake, however I have idea why anyone would create a fake account for- Tyler Honeycutt, Norris Cole (who in the real world possess a fantastic hi-top fade), or Jereme Richmond.
DOUBLE BONUS: If you’re really desperate you can follow An Inconvenient List of 2011 NBA Draft Prospects on Twitter.
TRIPLE BONUS:
A search for John Diebler on Twitter yields the following:
