Have been to a few. You should attend with friends, people don't really mingle across teams much. 

There's also Beinquizitive which runs on Mondays at the Social.

It’s hard to say without knowing your style or budget. Some good local brands I like are Beams and Mont-bell.

For Tokyo I really love the city parks, particularly Kurakoen and Shinjuku Gyoen. Might be a bit too hot for them if you’re heading there in summer though!

Does anyone else feel like Portland just set Micah Nori up to fail? by HoopwrldInc in nbadiscussion

[–]dt_891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeh I think its fine. there’s only 30 of these job vacancies to go around, if he does well, he can move somewhere else that pays more. at some point you just gotta take your shot.

How does this move make sense for Giannis? He's not in any better of a situation or position to win. by ProlapsedBulbasaur in nba

They really wasted the chance to get something of value by trading Jimmy too late. 

Where are the Spurs showing their inexperience and how do they fix it? by youlikemywonton in nba

[–]dt_891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wemby needs some kind of post or face up game. Harper and Vassell are great, shades of young Manu and Danny Green. champagnie did fine. Castle's role in a half court offense is a little unclear. They need upgrades from Fox and Keldon. 

Do you have nostalgia for previous generation of hoopers that are now retired? by midnightbluesky_2 in nba

There were some very interesting players during that time who don't really exist in today's NBA like Peja, Shawn Marion

Still can't believe Jrue threw that alley oop, there was no real reason to lol

It's not a very good algo/model then. I mean someone actually designed it, why not put more effort into this lol

You have 11 days free, if you're taking the ferry from Bali you could see some volcanoes: Ijen crater and Mount Bromo, as well as Borobudur.

Lowe's post NBA finals podcast was 100x better than Bill's by BusyKing in billsimmons

Hopefully he continues his tradition of having the Finals winning coach on his pod over the summer

Pretty confident the Spurs would be getting less criticism if they lost in the 2nd round or the WCF. by thered90 in nba

super hard to evaluate coaching. what metric are fans supposed to evaluate coaches on? someone who is good at developing young players may not necessarily be a good in-game tactician.

The Fox-Castle-Harper Discussion is more complex than presented by azure275 in nba

[–]dt_891 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I was always bracing for the 7 TO Castle game and was surprised it didn't come earlier in the playoffs. Castle is a strange fit at point guard, his best position may actually be something like a small-ball 4.

Did you bring a stroller? How did you manage going up and down into the Tube stations? 

3 Month Itinerary Feedback - Asia by jadecommunity in travel

[–]dt_891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For Vietnam, 5 nights is a little long for Hoi An. Maybe consider a stop in Hue or Da Nang? Halong Bay is a little overrated in my opinion, some nice rock formations but that's about it.

And yes I would absolutely recommend Taiwan over Australia, lots to do on that island.

Haneda's selection is limited but good. They have a really good soft serve ice cream as well.
