MANILA, Philippines–Barangay Ginebra has enough experience to know that a rollercoaster series presents a difficult challenge. 'It could be a pivotal game for us if we could get it,' Justin Brownlee said as Ginebra aims to put a stranglehold on the PBA Governors' Cup finals when it battles TNT in Game 4 on Sunday, hoping to take a commanding 3-1 in the PBA Governors' Cup Finals on Sunday at Smart Araneta Coliseum. Tip-off is at 6 p.m. with so many storylines expected to unfold: Which team starts out hot? Who will shoot better from the perimeter? Who will perform better, Brownlee or Tropang Giga counterpart Rondae Hollis-Jefferson? And can Poy Erram keep his composure well enough to keep TNT in the series? Ginebra regained control of the lead in the best-of-seven affair two nights earlier with a 117-103 win behind a franchise record 18 threes and strong plays from Jamie Malonzo and Stanley Pringle.

Today's world is no longer the one in which we once grew up. If we turn on the news or read the newspaper, we are confronted with news that was previously unthinkable. Wars, environmental destruction, pandemics, earthquakes, volcanoes, catastrophes without end. If you look behind the scenes, you will often be confronted with fake news and conspiracy theories. That's why I usually prefer the daily newspaper or the TV news to the internet or YouTube, Instagram, and the like. There have always been times when certain people tried to fool the crowd.
