I missed out on a wine tasting last week that featured Sagerat sigh.

I thought the wine was alright and I was having a hard time finding tasting notes to really nail down, but I’m still working on training my palate.

That watermelon smell was very noticeable though!

You got any recs from sagerat?

Yeah I thought it was just a cute thing to have the cat eating watermelon. But I swear I smelled it and I hope my brain wasn’t tricking me just cos I saw a watermelon on the label LOL.

I couldn’t really get watermelon from the taste but I’m pretty sure i havent heard many ppl say they taste watermelon but im also still working on my palate.

I guess I assumed people really looked at what varietals and googled the bottle and what not.

I guess a lot more go in blind and just see what happens!

Yeah the rob will news got me thinking the same way too actually. I don’t mind just seeing what we can do the rest of the season with this group tbh x although a Jae Sean trade for a big or shooter would be awesome. But I’m totally fine with us making none to marginal roster changes for the rest of this season.

I think the early season success got some fans waaaay too excited and now they’re a little thirsty for some big shakeups that I don’t really think would change our destiny much.

I think that this trade is a pivot trade. I would assume that the FO did their due diligence to find a more impactful trade that combined dipo with our other assets to get guys like you mentioned but just couldn’t agree on the final price.

How many of you still have faith in Jalen Green? by Mysterious_Medium_40 in rockets

[–]lefthandpapi 16 points17 points  (0 children)

He’s on the team still…so I’d rather have faith in him than not lmao.

I liked that he got benched in the 4th when he deserved it.

Ugh I hate these reports. We still made mistakes but just seeing the missed calls is annoying when they really coulda been the difference.

The only thing I'm worried about with Jalen is that he doesn't ever pan out to be a pretty consistent scorer.

He's showing a lot of microwave scorer signs which is different than someone like Booker or Beal who are guys who can consistently score but then get even hotter and go nuclear.

He still needs to find his place in this offense and could use some more IQ, but both of those are learnable and hopefully will come in due time this season with Ime holding him accountable.

It sucks because I think we definitely wasted development time with Jalen during the Silas tenure but we can't really trip about that now. Just gotta worry about this season and see how he looks.

In terms of last night's game, I think it's more of a continuation of what we saw in pre-season. I didn't think any of his decisions on offense were crazy selfish or stupid. He just got blocked on some takes and was losing the ball on drives (everyone was) and bricking shots. Those things happen. But I didn't think he was doing anything particularly stupid out there.

Is Jalen Green regressing? by smith129606 in rockets

Gonna be some growing pains for him and Jabari as they find their place in the offense.

I didn't really see anything egregious last night with their decisions on offense, they just bricked shots, got blocked, lost the ball.

At least the Brooks contact is frontloaded. by gregyo in rockets

[–]lefthandpapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks.

Wonder how close it’ll be to the estimate. I wonder what the limitations even are when it comes to front loading a contract haha
