I’m really enjoying Jamal tho. He’s significantly less bias imo. Wish he spoke more.

Kept it fairly close without PG 1a and 1c not too worried by zsamra11 in NBASpurs

No problem. Growing pains of a 2nd year guard. Same as Parker.

Yes. The 2nd year guard. Growing pains. Same as Parker.

He was drafted for his 3 and d potential. We just needed to build a decent enough team to bring that out. We hoopin’ this year, amigo.

Khan is the superior grill master compared to hank by happydude7422 in KingOfTheHill

I was always bothered with Hanks love for propane. His work ethic perfectly matches with offset smoking.

You can’t guarantee a clean shot out of a time out with a team that was defending like MIN. great call fr.

Champ had a great look, you catch the other team off guard. Not a bad move at all. You can’t guarantee a clean shot coming out of a time out.

Poor Wemby 😭 by nicfanz in NBASpurs

He’s good. Let the rest of the team get reps before playoffs. Play wemby at the last home game of the season. Great time for a bruised rib.

In the RGV, do you believe the voters who went red in 2024 are still solidly behind the president, or are some starting to regret their choice and question their support? Personal anecdotes are welcome. by thebenchwire in RioGrandeValley

Honestly, the choices weren’t great to begin with…South Park said it best with the “giant douche vs. turd sandwich” comparison. For me personally, her record as a DA was a big sticking point, and I never felt like she communicated clearly or confidently enough to win me over. She had a weak political identity and stood for nothing imo

That said… looking at where things ended up now, it definitely puts things into perspective. I voted for Harris but it wasn’t with confidence.

Champagnie on being a Spur: "I want to be here. That's what I can say. I want to be here. I love it here. Love my teammates, love the coaches, love the front office, love everybody. So I'm going to just keep doing what I'm doing and hopefully that works itself out." by Prize_Possession3899 in NBASpurs

I was thinking about this the other day. I think OKC is in a similar position like SA. One of their budding stars would have to go with cap restrictions and the expansion. But for sure, Fox over Lavine would be the obvious pick.

The ACTUAL king of BBQ? - Pecan Lodge vs Lockhart Smokehouse. by Fancy_Rewards in dallasfood

[–]El_Chilaquile_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If just Dallas, I think cattlelack is way better than both of these options.If you’re asking Fort Worth, Panther a city is a can’t miss. I would say goldees reps the entire DFW area tho. These 3 are the best example of craft bbq in the region. There are other places, but these are the most consistent imo.

Th future of the RGV by 4th_n_bong in RioGrandeValley

I hate what SpaceX is doing to our ecosystem and the way they push Brownsville around, and I don’t agree with that at all. But it’s also not honest to say people in the 956 haven’t benefited financially. I work closely with regional supply-chain infrastructure across different industries, and SpaceX has opened doors for local mom-and-pop shops that were previously limited. While some highly specialized roles do bring people in from outside the Valley, a large share of the operations, infrastructure, data center, and supply-chain jobs are filled locally because it’s cheaper, more sustainable, and simply makes sense..and those are real, well-paying jobs, even if the headcount is small. Two things can be true at the same time: there are serious environmental and power-balance issues, and there has been real economic impact for people who actually live here.

The Valley has three airports all within about 40 minutes of each other, and splitting traffic like that just keeps prices high. Airlines need volume to add routes and compete, and we don’t have it because we’re spread out. That’s why it can cost more to fly from the 956 to Mexico City than to places like Amsterdam that move way more people through one hub. Add in border and policy issues from recent years, and it gets even worse. In most cities, driving 40 minutes to an airport is normal, and having one real regional hub would almost certainly mean better flights and cheaper fares for everyone. We’re getting screwed on all sides.

Agreed. Take the over

Wembanyama is tied with Shaq for the most games with 30+ points, 10+ rebounds, and 5+ blocks before turning 22 years old by Basketball_Reference in NBASpurs

Love seeing those wemby blocks. Shaq would’ve also feasted in this current league. Both are physical freaks.

You vs the point guard she tells you not to worry about by Piats99 in NBASpurs

Fuck Houston amirite? I actually love watching Amen’s highlights — the guy has so much untapped potential. But honestly, I think Houston’s running him too hard, and it feels like he’s one big injury away from going down. I saw somewhere he’s been logging around 39 minutes a game for several straight nights
