  1. Heavily protected first for Cam sounds right. Salary dump + charitable donations to the Lakers does not.
  2. Yeah I believe Jon Hamm confirmed this. He said some of his younger co-stars smoked the real things, and became sick during shooting.
  3. Where have you been? They have $2k boots now. https://www.tecovas.com/products/the-marshall?color=coffee-crocodile
  4. Petition to move the team to Taos?! What Houstonian would argue with it right now? Team just excels at high altitudes and cooler weather.
  5. I put off spaying the puppies until as late as possible. Today was the day. Any tips would be appreciated. We have plenty of meds.
  6. I’m touring a ranch near El Campo next week. It’ll be interesting to see if my hosts address it. I’m sure it’ll come up.
  7. Indian Summer on Prime. A group of friends from camp reunite after 20 years for a long weekend. The Big Chill it is not, but it’s a pleasant summer movie with terrific actors that stay in their lane.
  8. How does the thread feel about John Hollinger? He was pretty dismissive of the Rockets chances. “They only have one PG they trust.” Lowe chimed in with a “DFS doesn’t shoot it well enough to worry other teams.” They then both jerked each other off the Spurs. “Smart to stay out of the Durant sweepstakes. Kornet is a really good back up center. Such a smart move, good contract. Called Vassell a blue chip prospect (he’s on his second fucking contract and has been in the league since 2020). Keeping their powder dry for Giannis.” Not a peep about Spurs being too cute, Giannis staying with the Bucks, Wemby staying healthy, or the possibility of the Spurs not even making the playoffs. They really are the armchair GMs’ darling. They did acknowledge San Antonio being a bitch to fly in and out of and residents like Bud Light Lime.
  9. What was the in game update? I just heard the tail end of Blummer’s discussion. “Hand isn’t healing. No progress.” I think he’s had hand issues before. It feels like they’re going to have to put a plate in there or something drastic.
  10. If it was only that simple. Lowe’s LeBron expert thinks he wants to maximize his earnings in his remaining season. So a buyout + another contract. Allegedly Bron thinks the league owes him after he took less money a couple times. It sounds like Lowe ultimately thinks he stays, but he wants to nudge the Lakers into win now mode again and stop their efforts to save money to build around Luka. Sounds like there’a some friction between Bron/Rich Paul and Pelinka. Pelinka might actually want to be a real GM.
  11. Zach Lowe thinks Bron is looking for a buyout. That would be some wild shit.
  12. Padilla doesn’t look pretty in old lady makeup. Shocker. Yep she’s a real dog.
  13. The vet minimum market is pretty robust at the moment. If you can sell minutes and a path to another contract, there are quality players to be had.
  14. Locked On Rockets think they’re all in on FVV, Amen, and Reed being the primary ball handlers with some Holliday minutes. I’d argue that Holliday can barely dribble.
  15. Ashley Padilla is the best looking cast member, and it’s not very close. Gardner’s face is aging oddly. Go back and watch some previous seasons.
  16. Trent Jr got what he got because he can’t play defense. Ty Jerome would have been a nice piece at SG. No argument there. DFS was so expensive because he’s a really good defender, and a 41% 3 point shooter. I believe the Lakers were 14-5 in games he started. Obviously that record is skewed because of the Luka acquisition, but it provides some insight on how important he was to them. I think there was a way to sign DFS, Capela and Jerome. I wish they had gone that direction.
  17. Spurs just offered Harrison Barnes and a training table for Giannis.
  18. What’s a good return for Whitmore? He almost certainly has requested a trade.
  19. Laravia might my favorite non Rocket now. Those are the thirstiest Instagram DM’s I have ever seen.
  20. I believe their ratings were insane for a non Netflix streaming only show + it’s Taylor Sheridan. They’ll do as many seasons as they want.
  21. This. Giannis doesn’t want to leave. The Bucks gave him a shot, remained loyal to him, and gave him literally everything he’s wanted short of putting all of his brothers on the roster. I think Giannis also understands the Bucks are screwed next season, but they’ll have some options in 2026 when Dame’s contract is expiring.
  22. I’ll agree with BOB15 here. Bron could have opted out, and signed a 2 year deal like Harden. This would have freed up enough money for them to sign a real center. Other than the look at me aspect, I don’t understand his motivations.
  23. I mean the Bucks aren’t going to do better than Alpi and the Suns+Nets+Mavs picks. The Spurs will refuse to include Lavell in the deal.
