  1. Some of the SGA and OKC takes here are laughable. I am not a fan but they had a great fucking season. They may be boring but they deserved it. SGA is the best scoring SG since Kobe and he’s young enough to surpass Wade when it’s all said and done. He doesn’t finish at the rim like Wade could but he’s better all around on offense including as a distributor. Congrats to all of them. Separately, and maybe it’s upthread, but if I have a calf strain, I am letting that mf’er heal. Durant and Halliburton aren’t the only two. I can’t recall but there was at least one other recently that had a calf strain, came back and played, then tore an Achilles. May have been in football. It really sucks. You have 3 of the top 20 players in the East out with Achilles next year.
  2. No shit. Orlando is looking pretty good if Paolo can take another leap and Suggs comes back.
  3. Honestly, I hope he figures it out and makes a few All Star teams. He’s still super young and dropped 38 in the playoffs. This is a no brainer deal for the Rockets and even if KD can’t bring us to the finals and Jalen is a future all-NBA player, you do this 10 out of 10 times. If I were the Suns I don’t trade with the Rockets without getting that ‘27 pick back on principal even if I have to take the shitty Miami or SA deals. And yet, here we are. Awesome.
  4. Jabari is the more interesting one. He won’t get a great deal if he signs early like Jalen and Alpy but I am sure we will try to lock him down. If I am his agent I tell him to bet on himself and make the Rockets pay him much more by extending next summer.
  5. I imagine that Green and 10 for Durant trade includes an unnamed vet contract like Londale.
  6. Is Seb Berhalter good? I was at the Austin FC Vancouver game and he seemed like just above MLS JAG in that game. Then I see he’s playing on same field for national team. Color me surprised. Credit to him for serving up the goal, though.
  7. Is this a bit?
  8. Bad collagen imo
  9. If we could snag one of Trey Murphy and Derek White along with Cam Johnson I’d be gruntled.
  10. I saw Hamilton on West End two years ago. Great seats, not that expensive. And a bit of a different take. Would recommend if you aren’t chasing seeing someone famous in something which is also worth doing. AI says: e: Cate Blanchett in "The Seagull," Tom Hiddleston and Hayley Atwell in "Much Ado About Nothing," Jonathan Bailey in "Richard II," and Brian Cox in "The Score". Additionally, Rami Malek and Indira Varma are in "Oedipus", and Vanessa Williams is in "The Devil Wears Prada".
  11. Yeah. Agree. Front rows of an upper deck can be a good experience. And if anyone in the group likes Coldplay he puts on a good show. I’m not a huge fan but saw them at Toyota Center 20 years ago or so and had a good time. Plus, Wembley. Stadium concerts at classic stadiums are cool. $400 seems almost reasonable these days. edited - 20 not 29. I’m not that old
  12. Work event at Moody Amphitheater for Peach Pit tonight. Never heard of them because I’m an old. Any good?
  13. What if it was a 4 start general doing the same thing? They would have to stand down. It's equivalent. But stay obtuse.
  14. If guess the fact that you think he was acting like a child, given what his role is and what she said, is part of the problem. Your fascism is showing.
  15. A-Tex Devil

    Austin FC

    Desler is super important to this team. That is all.
  16. Mountainhead got panned on the Tv/Movie thread but I am telling you, it is both holding up a mirror and prescient.
  17. Elmo has his own horde. And they are better at computers and stuff than the 25th Rascal Batallion. This is gonna be fun.
  18. Hmmmm...... I enjoyed it? I knew going in that they filmed it over 10 days in February, so it was what I expected. And I am not sure it's that far off of how Thiel, Musk, Reid Hoffman, and David Sacks (clearly the models for each) talk to each other in real life.
  19. Was Maeve suggesting that she and Eddie should be a couple? The "But your my Nan!" or whatever was weird. How much I ultimately liked this episode has everything to do with how next season picks up. Because I am not so sure right now. Seems like Philomena is taking the call Harry won't with Kat, so I imagine that will be a huge source of friction next season.
  20. Kentucky has a kid named Kyuss Gargett
  21. Going to Metallica/Pantera/Suicidal Tendencies with my 13 yo nephew tonight in DC at Commanders stadium. Was his bday present because his dad is a deadbeat. I am 49 and figure I’ll be at about the average age.
  22. Exactly. Wemby’s floor is a better version of Ralph Sampson or Bill Walton’s NBA career depending on how long he lasts. Wemby’s ceiling is above LeBron, imo. Tall dudes (>7’ 0”) have an inherent risk of breaking down.
