I hate Wemby had to diss my city, he’d be a really fun player to root for otherwise.

@BradeauxNBA Comedic gold

Absolutely not.

@LanceZierlein Agreed, a speed limit of 70 on that road is way too low. 140 seems about right, so they should drop the charges.

This is absolutely absurd at this point.

@BimaThug Unfortunately now the Pistons are buyers, competing with us. Had CLE lost, they would be desperate sellers.

Even though it’s ending badly, this was a GREAT season for the Detroit Pistons. They should be proud of all they accomplished this year.

@HoustonRockets I guarantee you that within 1-2 minutes of gameplay after each of these great plays, there was a bonehead play of equal magnitude. Tari swings that love/hate pendulum back and forth faster than any Rocket I've ever watched.

Looking back on Peso’s Year 4 🗣️

@mcuban Government deserves LESS money and LESS power, not more. Why increase the available pool of resources to an entity so entrenched in waste, fraud & abuse?

We should federally tax Tokens at the Provider level. Not a lot. Less than 50c per million tokens. It will accomplish 4 things (at least ) 1. It will push the big AI players to optimize tokenization, caching , routing and localization Which will 2. Reduce energy usage. Saving them in energy costs more than what they paid in tax and reducing strain created by the growth in energy consumption Which will 3. Generate maybe 10 billion dollars a year to start, but over the next ten years could grow 30x to 100x Which will 4. Create a source of funding to pay down the federal debt or deploy, in response to the things AI brings that we don’t expect or don’t like At some point the models will pass it on to customers. Of course. That’s ok. Customers will have the ability to choose between providers. Or to do everything using open source models locally. Thoughts ?

@BiasedHouston Tari needs to do the same ball handling workouts that Reed did last summer. Worked for Reed, dramatic improvement from yr 1 to yr 2.

I think the pendulum has swung too far on Tari Eason, and I say that as someone who thinks he left a lot of food on the plate this season.

@BimaThug @sameersankaran But that $11m can be combined with other outgoing contract(s), correct?

@sameersankaran @today32 Remember BYC and first apron issues will keep HOU from taking back more than ~$11M in a Tari S&T.

"An informed prediction on the average annual salary for forward Tari Eason’s next contract: $22 million." houstonchronicle.com/sports/rockets…

@BimaThug I think we have to run perfect as an organization to have any hope the next several years, and being saddled with Tari at $22m is FAR from perfect.

@today32 I think the Rockets (begrudgingly) match an offer that size. If it gets over $25M per, THEN it's S&T time.

@TuckonSports You should have held out for better odds... Norm gave me the under on 73.225

It really is amazing how dumb this man is.

@wholemars I'm pretty sure that chicken is the Robotaxi coverage map for the Bay Area. Tesla diner must be doing a promotion...

for the chicken sandwich at the tesla diner, they should make the patty the same size as the bun

@thejefflutz Wow, I don't envy HR... reading through resumes from all those Optimus, so tough to decide which ones to hire!

Probably means Tesla is doing what they said they would which is to deploy the first batches of optimi to their own factories 👍🏼

@BimaThug @LittleEdwad @The_Dr_Evil @BenDuBose If Stone got KD down to $45m/yr, do you think he get AD in the same range?

@LittleEdwad @The_Dr_Evil @BenDuBose Consider? Yes. Do it? Probably not. That AD salary is a doozy.

When Yossi brings up the proposed AD-and-a-pick for Sengun trade he discussed with @BenDuBose recently, Sam quickly chimes in, noting that the Wizards would need to offer the Rockets closer to 3 first round picks in any AD-for-Sengun exchange. (I kind of agree.)

@BimaThug @BenDuBose If Stone could get KD down to $45m/yr, he'd certainly be able to get AD down, right? If we could get 3 FRPs, I'm doing that. Gamble on health and if it works, you've upgraded the defense and given yourself a shot at 2027, while also building for the future?!?

@Kevmath I like the Vegas Rake

There’s two chances this will be the proposed Vegas NBA’s team name, IMO Slim and None

@BiasedHouston This is easily fixable. Software exists to tract stuff like this. Ref at the table can blow whistle and call it during live play. No need to stop the game. Getter done @nba

Wemby is such a good shot blocker that the refs let him get away with blatant goaltends.

@TexansCap I watched the whole video and then realized at the end that I had my speakers on mute. Re-watching now. Is you an Aggie too?

Yay, I recorded a video with the mic on mute. Dumbass. Re-recording.

@TexansCap 45m is a bummer, I had seen 28m guaranteed in the reports last week. Oh well, glad we have him.

Azeez Al-Shaair's three year $54 million contract extension with the Houston Texans includes over $45 million in total guarantees. The extension generated $6.42m cap savings for the team for 2026. overthecap.com/player/azeez-a…

@BimaThug Someone ought to chip in some NIL money to all the guys the Rox are interested in, pushing them into the 2027 draft ;)

The 2027 draft adds another potential first rounder.
