  1. Rockets are signaling they aren't interested in 2025 draft as much as they are in getting into the playoffs. Or selling tickets with old KD...
  2. At some point there will be diminishing returns. Where I see the most instant impact is ST.
  3. Google lens did find a match and tell me it's Dragon
  4. F the offseason
  5. So... I had to fly out on Father's Day for work. Normally, Sunday is smoking and grilling day. Missed for dollar chasing. So yesterday, as I'm sitting at the airport, the young one texts, "ur cooking when you get home." I didn't get home until after 1030p, so that didn't happen. Today I pulled Akaushi sirloin and some thick chops out of the freezer and let them thaw while working. Well, when it came time to cook, it was fn pouring outside... Wife says. " You've cooked in the rain before." She was not trying to be funny. Anywho, I did something I haven't done in years - cook a steak indoors. Smoke everywhere, but the results were positive. I did learn that my cast iron on the grill is nowhere near as hot as cast iron on the stove (aka great fire as soon as the olive oil hit the pan...)
  6. So is this not something the AI can do in seconds?
  7. This is funny to me. Probably only me for me reasons....
  8. So, I tried Col E H Taylor earlier this week while on the road. I didn't care for it. It was a bit peaty like a scotch, which I also don't care for. I picked up another Booker's yesterday as a gift for a buddy.... That way, we can drink his instead of mine.
  9. Barrack Obama is gonna convert us all to Islam or Fentanyl is going to kill us all. But we're in the SEC, so it's ok.
  10. Lol. I clicked on this thread and landed at these posts.... The simulation gots jokes.
  11. He better have a nice Cuban Link when he comes back.
  12. Now imagine she can't shoot.
  13. Lololol good luck getting anywhere on time on Spirit. The only reason I like SWA is the convenience of Hobby airport over Bush... Yet I still mostly fly United so I can pick a seat, get an upgrade (with chosen or purchased) and generally not have to deal with chaos of people. I don't do connections on SWA, but I will on United. SWA connects can be hours. United is usually 70 mins. But to the original question, the boarding process for SWA doesn't bother me. The seating process does.
  14. That is not why.
  15. My youngest son was all over the chops. He seemed angry that they hadn't been like this in the past.
  16. First time Tri Tippin on Fo Fos.... Smoked to 125, then seared... Kroger had a few on Manager's Special so I grabbed a couple of 2 pounders. I didn't even know Kroger had to tip, much less that they would go "oh, No! Please take these Gray boy..." This was the first run. They were pre marinated, but I dried them off and added some things. Hat tip to @ChampKind because he was the first person to intro me to smoked Tri Tip years ago. Wrapped inFo Vogues.
  17. He's smaller in stature than FVV (who also isn't great at defending PG. But hustles, so I get where you're going)... And Thompson is probably the PG of the future. I didn't see Reed play enough to put him out there at PG as a starter. He will get switched to death. I saw Knecht play. Knecht is an NBA player. Forget the draft spot. Knecht is the better NBA prospect.
  18. I have teens. So, of course I had every terrible tasting thing in the place. My oldest liked it.
  19. I can get it every day. I had no idea. It's good in the hood.
  20. I don't care about him being 23. Late growth spurt means he is less likely to fall off at 30. Where is Shepard going to play and who is he going to defend? He's going to get moused. Now, as I said, if Knecht doesn't want to be a better defender than Jalen, then no.
  21. Knecht can play 3. A year behind Dillon Brooks won't hurt. The future of Amen, Jalen, Dalton, Jabari, Alperen, Cam, Tari does not suck. If you want a shooter that isn't 6'1 and doesn't take the ball out of Amen's hands as your facilitator, Knecht is the play. Eta: I'm not convinced Jalen will be consistent, so I'm ok with having his replacement ready to go.
  22. I went to the Coca Cola museum in Atlanta. At the end they have a lobby of soft drink machines with all the different soft drinks and flavors from around the world. I felt like I was going to die from sugar overdose. Coke raises my blood pressure instantly (I learned this long ago and stopped drinking Coke.) I like to think that not drinking carbonated sugar waters has kept me from beetus and the plethora of other diseases that seem to plague me and my people... Namely, being a fatass.
  23. Dalton Knecht is 6"6", athletic, and can score. If I'm Stone and Udoka, I interview him to see how much he wants to become an elite defender. He was a late bloomer in terms of size, so I'm guessing he worked on scoring more than defending. I think Knecht will be a better NBA player than Shepard and I would draft Knecht at 3 if I can't trade back.
