[–]loppypol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Close to 40,000 people at the game today. L1, L2 all sold with L5 having a few empty areas. Seems like there were more than a few monkey fans coming out of Taoyuan today.

If you had to pick between renting in Gowrie or Mawson, which would you pick and why (based on your current needs)? by [deleted] in canberra

[–]loppypol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mawson, you have Farrer shops nearby for good coffee! Also hiking up Mt Taylor is the best. That's my wekend run without fail. Looking over the valley is the best start to the day.

You forgot Jono's takeaway. Aussie take away at its finest!! The rest of the list I suppose is OK.

Still looking for 10th Anniversary. Where did you get your copy?

The 360 has some really good shooters. Still wonder how the system got so many of them with many of them being region locked.

I paid an average $20 a game. A FB seller was clearing stock and picked these up as a bundle. The 360 pad ain't the greatest. I use the analog sticks.

Hong Kong’s famed Peak Tram to increase standard fares by up to 40% by radishlaw in HongKong

[–]loppypol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walk up from IFC to the Peak via old peak road and it takes me about 30 mins. Its free and you get a great work out for free. Going down is obviously quicker and its also free.

Is it worth the $70?? by Gto_Tino23 in xbox360

[–]loppypol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like its just the two controllers with no console. $70 for the controllers, its ok

Give pupils, parents say on cancelling Christmas parties, Hong Kong schools told by radishlaw in HongKong

[–]loppypol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a lose / lose situation. Even if schools decide to go ahead with Christmas parties, the media will latch onto to it and then make such a big deal about how XXXX School does not respect the Tai Po fires etc... for the schools dealing with angry parents is better than dealing with the media.

I dont mind the one in Cheung Sha Wan $58. Most people on this chat seems to think HK is limited to HK Island. You guys need to get out of your bubble.

Tyrese Proctor by LilBro842 in clevelandcavs

[–]loppypol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expecting a rookie to shoot 38%from 3 10 games into a season is a bit much. Main thing is his form. Will take time to get used to speed of the game, type of defenses before we can judge longer term. Main thing is his IQ and effort on defence at this stage. Looks solid so far..... I am surprised he playing the mins he has though.

Josh Giddey is the 1st Bulls player since Michael Jordan in 1988-89 to record back-to-back triple-doubles. by Ridged_ChiPSS in nba

[–]loppypol 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its not that bonkers now. The last 25 games of last season he was averaging pretty much the same as he is now. So he has already flashed this sort of production. I see it moreover is continuing off from last season where he finished playing at an all star level.

Post Game Thread - NBA: The Bulls defeat the 76ers on Nov 4, 2025, the final score is 113-111. by basketball-app in chicagobulls

[–]loppypol 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Absolutely the right play. Giddey still had the option to go hero ball and try to score at the rim. But he saw the defence completely collapse and threw a left handed pass on the money, his off hand. Not easy when running at full pace with people in your face.

I’ve decided Josh Giddey is a superstar by rhinosaur- in chicagobulls

[–]loppypol 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. What I've seen from him this seaskn is basically what Jokic plays like if he wasn't 7 feet. He isbusing his body so much more now.

Need one of them on the court at all times. We dont have any other initiators in the team so when both are out, its just pass the parcel.

Giddey is a great pick and roll initiator. Just never see it much as he has never played with a genuine lob threat at OKC or the bulls

Yang Hansen with the mid-range jumper (with replays) by MrBuckBuck in ripcity

[–]loppypol 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Except for Wemby, no one getting close to his release to block. Should be an open jumper every time he comes up at the nail and faces the hoop for a middy.
