2024-2025 Houston Rockets thread - Prepare for Liftoff π

IMO, the tragedy of Anakinβs fall is more powerful from the perspective on Mandalore than what we see in ROTS. Fuckinβ Maul, once again, tells the Jedi exactly whatβs going to happen. Ahsoka refuses to believe it until she feels it happen and has the βoh fuckβ realization immediately followed by Order 66. I understand Maulβs wanting to piss on Palpatineβs plan to flip Anakin, but he shouldβve been smarter to think he could defeat Anakin and Kenobi by himself (when he couldnβt beat Kenobi alone previously and then got beat by Ahsoka). He might more effectively fucked Palpatine by dropping a dime on him to the Jedi sooner, get his revenge on the sith, and still run his pirate game in the Outer Rim. *All this shit youβd know what I was talking about if youβd stoop to βwatching a cartoonβ*

The Red Wedding removed Starks from power in the North and eliminated the primary front of the war with the Lannisters, gave Winterfell to the Boltons, set up Sansa's marriage to Ramsey, caused Arya to go East and get trained by the faceless men, and later Arya's murder of all Frey men. It did some shit.

I think he would've had a better pro career than Lamar Jackson with different coaches.

I found the answer about FVV after I made the last post (can't trade a player with a player/team option until it is exercised). KD turns 37 in September, so the extension will really be for his 38/39 seasons. I wouldn't give him $60+ per year for that. Either treat it as a one year rental (and pay accordingly in the trade) or get him to extend for a more reasonable salary based on age/injury risk. For salary matching purposes, Houston's 2025 base salaries are: Sengun - $33.9 Jalen - $33.3 Brooks - $22.1 Jabari - $12.4 Reed - $9.6 Landale - $8 Eason - $5.7 They could re-sign and trade FVV (don't know why FVV would agree to that). If they decline FVV and don't re-sign/extend him, it puts them under the cap where they could sign another free agent and/or re-sign Steven Adams, then pull a trade for KD or someone else. -

I've seen realistic sports writers put a fair value on KD based on his age, injury risk, and only one year left on his contract, but there are more who think Houston should give way too much. ESPN mocked 5 trade proposals yesterday and had Houston giving up #10, the 2027 PHX pick, Reed, Cam, Brooks, and Londale. The other offers they pitched seem like less capital than what they have Houston giving up. Minnesota offers Gobert plus spares, Spurs offer Devin Vassell, Harrison Barnes, and #14 pick, and Knicks offer OG Anunoby, Mitchell Robinson. I don't think I'd give up Reed + multiple good assets; maybe tell them to pick two from Cam and the two first rounders plus salary filler. Can FVV be traded prior to declining the team option to serve as filler...like include him, then PHX declines the option, then FVV is a free agent (and could re-sign with Houston)? Or Jalen + Brooks? https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/44108357/kevin-durant-trade-proposals-four-deals-suns-star -
Are they showing signs of realism that their most attainable goal is being a spoiler?

I wasn't cherry picking. They were in photos in two articles I read off Drudge yesterday. I was curious what Party for Socialism and Liberation had to do with all these printed signs at all the protests, then read their website. Photos like these: In Pflugerville: -

I don't know why I was surprised to look up the group named on the bottom of the printed posters and find the protests in all these cities are organized by the Party for Socialism and Liberation whose goal is to completely topple capitalism.- 788 replies

It makes my head hurt that there are diehard Star Wars fans who have no idea who Ahsoka Tano is.

If that's the best offer PHX gets, it's possible. He'd be walking on a team with Wemby, Castle, Fox, CP3, and the #2 pick (Harper?). Not a bad crew to roll with. -

I was interviewed in a documentary, but that's not a movie and did not qualify for SAG card status. In high school, I was in a gallery crowd while filming Tin Cup, but I don't think any of the shots or angles where our group stood were used in the final cut. My FIL was one of the dudes that opened the giant gate in the most recent King Kong reboot.

619 is the San Diego area code. Itβs his way of showing love to the folks back home.
