Lebanon is the one who fought Australia in the Fiba Asia Cup Finals 2022 so they are at the top right now so seeing Gilas losing by only 4 points to them is a net positive already.

Lack of preparation might be one of the reason why they lost because preparing for the big stage is very helpful for that chemistry to build up. Let's also add the fact that Clarkson really lose his hot shooting in the final minutes of the game.  If he only maintained that one then the Gilas has a chance. Turnovers is also a big factor as well because they got 21 turnovers against 9 from Lebanon. We know that the team who is turning the ball over many times tend to lose most of the time and that's what happened to Gilas.

Overall, it's a good game for the Gilas team and let's move on and focus on their next opponent which is Saudi Arabia which the Gilas is heavily favored. I'm expecting adjustments as well especially in their turnovers.

He joined Embiid, Simmons and Griffin as the rookies who lost their rookie years due to injuries as Woj said on Twitter.

TBH, I'm not surprised that it happened. Just look at his frame and his body. Yes, he is athletic during the college, but it is different in the NBA. Now he must sit the whole upcoming season to rehabilitate and aside from rehabilitating, he must gain weight as well and make his body bulkier because just look at the bigs of the NBA. How can he defend those if he will stay on that kind of body. I don't know though with what you said that he will hurt himself every year, but if he will not do something to his body then that might be the case for him. Overall, a loss for the Thunder this season, but he can just come back next season since he is still a rookie. Hoping the best and fast recovery for him.

I know NBA fans here talked too much about the Lakers in the past but now, we aren't hearing from them anymore aside from Lebron signing a 2 year deal.
Now the Lakers traded Talen Horton Tucker and forward Stanley Johnson for the veteran Patrick Beverley.

Lebron and Beverley had some trash talks in the past. Same goes for Westbrook and Beverley. Do you think that he is a good fit for the Lakers. For me, the Jazz won here big time because THT got a new team already. THT isn't that explosive with his stint with the Lakers so him going to other team might be a new opportunity for him to showcase his talents. I'm curious how will PatBev fit with the Lakers 

Ramdam kita dahil kahit ako ngayon nag bubuild up na rin ng codex dahil isa na rin un sa factors kung ilan ang makukuha naming sahod weekly.

Ang pinagkaiba lang siguro natin is ung may weekly sahod kami at ung nakukuha ko na DS ay un ang ginagamit ko pang codex. Craft Epic DS, benta tapos bili codex gears at pang clan expedition na rin. Siguro swerte na rin namin na walang sumasakop dito na ibang guilds dahil nakafocus lahat sa Asia 4 kung nasaan ka ngayon espceially sa 151. Peaceful ang server at nakakapagprogress kami.

Pinush ng mga players sa kanilang discord na ibalik ung step-up kaya ibinalik nila plus may DS step-up pa so another burning mechanism na naman para sa Darksteel pero di ko lang if maaapektuhan nito ung current price ng Darksteel sa market pero sa tingin ko may kaunting epekto dahil magaganda ung mga makukuha. Dragon Eye, Claw summon at saka Mystical Piece summon.

Ung Cintamani event ba ang sinasabi mo boss? Sobrang sulit un talaga dahil ang daming pwedeng makuha. Mas sulit un if may alt ka at may nakita rin akong post sa Facebook na nakakuha ng Epic Ring dun (baka un rin ang nakita mo ).

Have the opportunity to watch the whole game (I will not let myself miss any Finals game from now on ) and it seems like Coach Chot's absence is a factor in this Game 2 win.

With regards to Mikey Williams, he didn't play most of the 2nd half because of the ankle sprain that he got in the 1st quarter and he only scored 7 points (conference-low) and Pogoy is scorching hot in the 1st half but went cold in the 2nd half. On the other hand, it's Perez and Manuel who carried the team in the 3rd quarter and because of that, they got the momentum and didn't look back. My prediction is almost right that SMB will win by double digits if only Rosario didn't shoot that final shot .

This is how deadly the SMB is right now. Most of their players might be inexperienced when it comes to PBA Finals but their coach has a lot of it already and he knows what he will do to his players. I'm also happy that Coach Leo already adjusted from his old style of focusing most of the offense to JMF to now focusing the offense to all of his players. Now you will see Lassiter, Perez, Cruz, Manuel, Tautuaa and others scoring double digits and when this points is distributed among many players, you will know that they are a deadly and hard team to beat. JMF only scored 13 points and didn't shoot much like what he did in Game 1 and I guess he's ok with it as long as the team wins.

56 points in the paint compare to 38 for the TNT. Even though the TNT have 2 big players in the paint, the SMB isn't afraid of driving and scoring near the ring. Vic Manuel's perimeter shot is a given already because it is his bread and butter. When you see him shoot perimeter shots, most of the time it always went in and let's not forget how good he is in footwork. It's also the reason why he can score inside and in the perimeter.

I think Mikey Williams not in his usual shape is the problem for the TNT right now. He only scored 7 points in Game 2 but if he scored more than 20 points, the result might be different. 3PT shooting is the main weapon of the TNT but it's a double-edged sword because if you can't make your 3-points, it might hurt the team but TNT has been successful on that one so maybe they might focus more on 3PT shooting.

Newbies are the ones who are asking these kind of question the most and I understand because maybe it's your first time to see this kind of movement from the market.

However, we don't know what will be the future movement of Bitcoin or at least nothing knows with 100% accuracy. We can say that it might fall further but the opposite happen and vice versa. You are disappointed maybe because you are at a loss right now. Just be patient and stay calm. A $3000 price drop of Bitcoin is nothing compare to it's recent drop from $69,000 all the way to $18,000. I've seen numerous drops of more than $3000 already but I stayed calm an see it as an opportunity to buy more.

Just an advice If you have spare money, try to accumulate more Bitcoin. If you believe that Bitcoin will go up in the future, accumulate more. If you trust Bitcoin then accumulate more. Remove panic and impatience and focus on accumulating.

It depends on some factors like time and the capital and of course your knowledge.

Both of them really gives decent returns especially in Bitcoin which gives higher returns compare to Mutual Funds but can give you higher losses as well because of it's volatility. I believe that when you are a younger investor, you still have time to make risky things and investing into Bitcoin is more risky compare to Mutual Funds.

I'm at my mid-20's and I consider myself a young investor still that's why I put most of my funds into crypto though I still have some stock market investments and some bonds as well. I will consider investing into Mutual Funds maybe when I'm at my mid-30's or at 40's because at that time, I don't want to lose that much money anymore and at that time, I want an assurance more than profits and Mutual Funds can give that I believe.

Overall, it's your choice as an investor. If you want risky assets then go Bitcoin but if you are a conservative one then consider investing into Mutual Funds as they are more secure and less volatile.

Those who invested and lost in Terra Luna are the ones who might get affected into this kind of news but for me, I'm not affected at all and will never invest still into a project that has "Terra" on the start of it's name.

Well, employees of TFL might also involved into what happened to the project so it's a good thing that they issued a travel ban to them. Overall, if you invested into Terra Luna, your money will not get compensated anymore so just move on and don't read articles regarding Terra or Do Kwon because it will only piss you and make your day bad . I'm just hoping that their new project will not be the same as the first one because it looks like many are still in support of Terra Luna project.

Many are expecting SMB to come back after that devastating Game 1 loss against TNT that's why maybe that is the betting spread? Or not .

Anyway, maybe it would be better if bettors will just bet during the game because there might be a chance that TNT will have a lead at the start and for sure, this will be an easy cover for SMB but anything is still possible. We might see a 2-0 after Game 2 but I don't think that SMB will allow that to happen. I think not having Coach Chot in Game 2 will be a huge factor on SMB's win. Yes we can say that the TNT still has other coaches but they are still different on how Coach Chot is coaching his players. I will not be surprised if this will end up in a double digit lead win for the SMB.

Global Warming, Climate Change, Food shortages, People protesting.
I think we can say that we are near to the end of the world already. JK

War must be stopped. Deforestation must be stopped. Governments must focus on the agriculture right now. We need to help each other so that we will survive.

If only I have the courage to open Bitcoin to my neighbors then I shared all of my knowledge about it many times already.
Unfortunately I don't have and the problem also is that, most of my neighbors aren't investing or just by looking at their daily lifestyle and what they are doing with their money, I don't even see them saving money at all so I think that they aren't interested in investing as well.

On the other hand, if there is somebody that I know who is investing into Bitcoin, I will try my best to share my knowledge to them and I will teach them some basic things. It's always good to see people teaching Bitcoin to others. That's only a few people right now but that increases the adoption of Bitcoin and over time, more and more people will try and involve themselves not only in Bitcoin but into cryptocurrency. I just hope that you didn't tell them that cryptocurrency is a "quick-rich scheme" because of how it moves during a bull market . JK but 10 for the initiative and the effort .

TBH, many are predicting that this to happen but we still need confirmations like this one. With how the Kyrie and Durant trade talks having no traction at all, this is the best option that the Nets need to do and it happened.

With this confirmation, the Nets are now in the 3rd spot in the odds in some sportsbook for winning the championship. They are 8th when this didn't happen and with their current line-up, I think they can do it. They have so many offensive firepower and they just need another defender in the paint aside from Claxton and I think they can be a championship contender. Durant, Kyrie, Harris coming back, Seth Curry, role players TJ Warren and Royce O'neal and they also have Simmons which is a great defender that can play from 1-5 position. On the other hand though, their 3 all-star players are prone to injuries so injuries might spoil their championship run but I hope it will not happen.

That's a good thing if you're an SMB fan that Mikey Williams isn't on his actual self where he will just score 20 points every game. Maybe the Magnolia exposed him in the Semi-Finals and now SMB knows how to defend him, but TNT still has more offensive weapons like Pogoy, Castro and even Khobuntin off the bench.

We saw how JMF scored in Game 1. 24 points with 11/12 FG shooting. He can still dominate the paint, and it's a good thing that he is shooting in the perimeter as well aside from near the ring, which makes him harder to defend if you're the opponent. Nevertheless, focusing on him offensively will not work any more like how they are doing years ago. It's the TNT that they are facing with, and for sure they know how to counter that one. They still have Mo though if JMF is in the bench, and he is a good defender as well and faster in transition defense.

Game 2 on Wednesday.

Level 103 pa lang ako na may 144k PS rin.
Kulang pa ako sa 2 na epic equipment (disregard ung secondary weapon at earrings mahirap kunin un) kaya di ko pa mapataas ang PS ko at mas priority kasi sa amin ang level kasi need namin ng 1 level weekly para makapasok sa weekly sahod (valley holder kasi kami).

Tama ung sinabi ni @danherbias na mahirap nang magpataas ng PS pagdating mo sa around 140k dahil sa dami ng gagawin tapos isama mo pa kung nasa enemy clan ka ng valley holder, hindi ka pagmiminahin at malaking tulong ang DarkSteel sa progress unless swerte ka sa bagay-bagay at palagi kang may Gold pang-bili ng Epic DS box.

Anong server ka lods kung pwede kong tanungin Nasa Asia 2 73 kami.
Regarding sa pag gagather at pagpapalevel, sa tingin ko mas efficient if bibili ka na lang sa market ng mga Uncommon na herbs kaysa i-gather mo. Malaki talaga ang delay sa level if mag gagather ka most of the time. Kapag mag gagather ka naman, gagamit ka rin ng energy at life elixir para iupgrade into rare at epic pero kapag di mo naman priority ang pagpapalevel then wala sigurong problema dun at pwede kang mag-gather anytime. Ganun kasi sa akin na mas priority ko level kaya binibili ko na lang sa market ung mga herbs na uncommon at mura naman ang mga un.

It will depend on what will the receivers do after receiving their Bitcoins.
Will all of them sell it? If yes then it will cause a bit of a downward movement which is a perfect opportunity for the accumulators of Bitcoin since they will buy at a lower price.
Will most of them hold it? If yes then there isn't anything to worry about I think.

Overall, you will only worry if you bought Bitcoin at a high price, but if you are a Bitcoin buyer, you see these events as opportunities to buy at a lower price . I don't know how much Bitcoin will fall if all of them or most of them will sell it, but that will be an opportunity. Nothing to worry about.

Westbrook must focus on the passing than scoring. We know how efficient Westbrook is if he is focusing more on passing.

The problem that I see with the roster of the Lakers last season is they are lacking of offensive power. They only rely on Lebron offensively and aside from that, nobody is stepping up. Davis coming back? I don't want to rely on him offensively because of how fragile he is. The Lakers must have another scoring first player that can step up if Lebron is injured or in the bench. They need this so that Westbrook can focus on what he does best and it is passing.

Remember when Ginebra lost to Meralco in the first round? That's what Ginebra fans did as well, and I see it funny that there are people out there on social media saying it was rigged blah blah, but they can't show any proofs at all. Typical Filipino keyboard warriors . Let them bark on social media, but I will just ignore them for the sake of PEACE .

Well, that's a good way to start the PBA Finals. Whenever you need a final shot, TNT always go on Jayson Castro. He is a very reliable veteran and TBH, that buzzer beater was the closest that I saw, and I think he released the ball at less than .1 second. That's how close that is. I'm an SMB fan ever since, and I already accepted what happened because it happens, that's all . Castro is a great and fast veteran player at his age, so it isn't surprising to me at all that they will go to him to throw the final shot, and he did it against Magnolia one time, so they know that he can do it again.

SMB knows that they can defeat TNT. They just fell short in the final 1.6 seconds. I'm curious on how the SMB will adjust to it or they will just focus on what they are doing which is spreading the offense and not focusing only on JMF like what they used to do years ago.

Baka pwede mong mag-share ng link dito ng game mo kung saan nangyari yang sinasabi mo boss?
0 cost heal cards ba sinasabi mo? For sure nakakalaban ka ng mga healing team na may watering can na kung saan every attack card na gagamitin mo sa kanila ay magkakaroon sila ng 0 cost na heal card gaya ng sinasabi mo. Kung ganun nga ang sitwasyon, hindi cheat yun pero sobrang badtrip silang kalaban kaya ang ginagawa ko na lang kapag sila ang nakakaharap ko ay auto-surrender na lang. Sayang oras sa kanila ang tagal na nga ng gameplay mas papatagalin pa nila.

Regarding sa note mo, tama na ung mga runes and charms na nacraft mo sa Season 0 ay magagamit mo lang sa season 0. Hindi ko alam if pwede mo silang magamit sa off-season after Season 0 since wala pang sinasabi pero pagdating ng Season 1, pwede mong i-disenchant ung mga nacraft mong runes and charms from Season 0 para maging Moonshards sila.

P.S. Ako lang ba nakapansin na mejo gumanda na ang burn to mint ratio ng SLP. Sa nakalipas na tatlong araw, more than 50% ng minted na SLP ang nabuburn. Mas dumami to kumpara sa mga nakaraang araw o linggo pero dumadami pa rin ang supply.

Do Kwon's attitude is the one to blame here.
His arrogance is the reason why the hackers targeted him and exploited the whole project.

Do you think that they will target him and the project if he isn't arrogant online? This is my opinion only but his arrogance lead him to failures like what they are experiencing right now. Well, the problem is they aren't taking the full responsibility and instead, they created another token and just let the old project die or they might abandon it in the future. What do I think with the Terra team? They are scammers, Kwon is an arrogant sh*t, I will not invest into any of the project that the Terra team is related on.

Just ignore the project if you want to invest your money and find another and better project.

The Nuggets manage to clinch in the playoffs last season even though they only have Jokic as their all-star. That shows how efficient and great Jokic is. Well, he got 2 back-to-back MVP's which he deserves right? .

I agree with what you said that his impact will be bigger if Murray and Porter will come back. The problem I see with Porter is his injuries which he already had even though he got drafted. Murray as we all know got injured in one of the final games in the regular season against the Warriors. With them coming back, the burden with Jokic will be lessen and he will have reinforcements to help him. If they will come back, Jokic might turn into a pass-first player instead of a scoring first like what he is doing a few years ago. Let's also take note that in the bubble, they manage to win 2 1-3 deficits against the Jazz and the Clippers so we know that the Nuggets are capable of reaching the Conference Finals or even the Finals. With good role players, I think that they can do it but it will be hard because of how star-studded the Western Conference.
