  1. Lots of people talking about how one or both need to start but they are really excelling in their current roles off the bench, why change that up? They can still play 30+ minutes coming off the bench.
  2. https://www.techradar.com/gaming/consoles-pc/dragon-quest-3-hd-2d-remake-launches-this-year-for-pc-and-console-dragon-quest-1-and-2-hd-2d-remake-announced-for-2025
  3. How was he not using them? The first second of the Doug Polk video shows shows him at the rail and seems like he's "using" the computer there to me.

    Bronny James

    I realize that it's Lebron who a lot of people hate and I'm sure ESPN is shoving this down everyone's throat to make it worse but is this really that much worse than Thanasis' career on the Bucks?

    USMNT 2024

    The Olympic roster hasn't been announced yet so Luna could still make the team.
  6. Those 5 plus Larry, Kent, and Weaver is a really strong 8 man rotation even if we're a little small inside
  7. This is more of a targeted thing where specifically for Jordan's defensive player of the year season, the home scorekeeper insanely padded his numbers. Every other season his home/away splits for steals and blocks are essentially the same while in that season he got twice as many steals and blocks at home as he did away.
  8. This needs to be part of something bigger to give up that 2025 pick. Top 5 pick in next year's draft is too valuable
  9. Nash, Lebron, Harden, Luka, etc would all disagree with you.
  10. She was talking about the first one "did you see when JJ knocked me down?" and it's not even close to the same type of play. Running up the court, cutting a player off twice, and getting a shoulder check for your trouble (which seems like was the exact type of reaction she was looking for) is different than standing without the ball and just taking a hip check out of nowhere. But she knows that
  11. Are the ridiculous pre-game outfits NBA players wear good for being taken serious as athletes?
  12. Clingan would be an awful pick for the Rockets. He'd help with interior defense but he and Sengun would have a hard enough time sharing the floor together before trying to fit in Amen and taking into account our general lack of shooters. Reed Sheppard is the obvious option if we keep the pick. He should be a very good shooter and thrive playing off of Sengun as a secondary creator.
  13. Why are people surprised the guy who shot over 50% from 3 on 4.5 attempts per game and added 4 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 2.5 steals in under 30 minutes a game is leaving to be a guaranteed lottery pick with potential to be in the top 5?
  14. Yes, the Rockets are going to try to trade his contract. He's not actually going to be in the league but right now he's essentially an expiring contract that's likely to get voided anyway.

    USMNT 2023

    It's Tactical Manager who is basically just a troll at this point and Weston's "friend" who is regularly making shit up chasing clout. Everyone would be better off completely ignoring those two guys. The Berhalter is literally Hilter faction of the fan base (that is pretty well represented here) really makes following anything USMNT a beating. If Balogun wants to be mad at anyone about the last game, it should be Weston. He's the guy who kept missing Balogun's runs (and had a great game otherwise). Which seems to be the whole point Berhalter is making. The "we" he's talking about isn't saying the coaching staff needs to come up with a plan and just started thinking about that when they got into camp. "We" is the guys on the field with him need to get used to playing with Balogun, see the runs he's making, and deliver the pass.
  16. What are the decent poker spots in Vegas right now? Going next month but my last Vegas trip was summer 2019 so unsure how much has changed.
  17. Are you sure he's competent? That's a terrible pre flop call.
  18. I feel like I just jam but no idea if that's the correct play. If you don't jam, what's your plan on the turn? Jam everything? Jam anything that doesn't pair the board (or maybe a 6)? Check/evaluate?
  19. The Rockets want to win games. Eason will develop more playing 24 minutes a game for a team attempting to win games than he would playing all of the minutes he wants on a team content with lucking into 20 wins with no organizational effort to win. If Eason ends up too good to play 24-30 minutes being the backup 3/4, that's a good problem to have.
  20. People are dumb. The one difference that I've noticed this season is that something will happen and it's kinda funny, not bad at all, but seems like would have been way funnier if they had gone a slightly different direction. I'm watching the show and in the moment seeing things that feel like missed opportunities to do something else. But is that an actual difference in the show? Probably not. It's probably just more exposure to their process with the podcast and see them clearly reacting to feedback they've gotten but not doing in in the way I thought was best.
  21. And I don't think that is Dillon Brooks. He wants a big role, lots of shots, and got 4 years. Hopefully it works out.
  22. No shit the Rockets weren't going to sign Dwight Powell for 3 years, 12 million total. But could they have given him 12 million a year of money that they needed to spend that would be coming off the books when it was time to pay the young guys (assuming some of them pan out)? Yeah, probably. Instead they gave that money to Dillon Brooks. And Jeff Green took a one year deal for 6 million to do exactly the thing you're saying NBA players wouldn't do.
  23. The problem with Brooks as a player is that he's another guy who doesn't create offense for anyone else and he loves to shoot while not being a very good shooter. Definitely think the Rockets would have been better off spending that money on a better backup center (the Mavs managed to bring Dwight Powell back for 3 years, 12 million total) and another guard who can shoot and create (Detroit traded a future 2nd to take on Monte Morris's expiring contract, the Rockets surely could have done that too).
