Contradictions

85%

Examples:

  • The article on Stephen Curry and Sabrina Ionescu states that they used different types of basketballs, which can affect performance. Additionally, it claims that Ionescu could have gone shot-for-shot with nearly anyone except Curry, which is false as there are many players who can match or surpass her performance from a deeper distance.

Deceptions

75%

Examples:
