Host of games on tonight got in on 3 so far:

Knicks -4.5 julius and brunsen are out but I think they still have enough to take this down

Boston -3 at home
Bucks -7.5 at home

I still like both as the top 2 teams in the east should at least get 1 of the 2 right!

Looking at some over unders and also considering taking the kings on the road in Dallas getting 6.5. Unsure since Dallas should be playing desperate here.

Either way good luck everyone

3 for 3 last night not bad.  These last couple games are going to be tough to determine who is who and what is what.  So far I'm down for 3 tonight:

Cavs on the road +9.5 against Orlando.  This will be a tough game for them and not needed in terms of a win but theor defensive rating should still keep them in the game like they did against the Knicks.

Phoenix -10.5 time to start laying in hard on them.  Gonna run with them through the playoffs.

And lastly give me the sixers -2.5.  Again at home and think they will want to end strong.  Like the sixers here.

Good luck tonight everyone!

Gonna be difficult for the Lakers specially against the Suns, who have Kevin Durant back in the line up now and Booker still playing good basketball even if Durant is in the floor with him.

They are not going to face the Suns, as they will likely participate in the play-in tournament. If they succeed, they will face the Memphis Grizzlies, who are currently ranked second in the standings. This will be a tough challenge for Memphis, as they will be facing a team that has already won a championship. So, we can expect to see many upsets in the upcoming playoffs.

The one thing that is assured is that we are guaranteed an exciting playoffs at least from the west.  At this point series are still so far up in the air.  If Memphis does land with the Lakers I think it will be much tougher on the Lakers because memphis's athleticism might overwhelm them.  Be a good 2/7 matchup though.

Right now I think the Bucks are gonna take the chip (I voted for the Knicks as a true Homer fan).  Celtics and Philly have too many holes to get exposed over a 7 game series.  The west I can't make heads or tails of but my guess would be the Suns vs bucks.  And I just can't see anyone on the Suns being able to shut down gianiss for more than a game or 2.  Suns or Bucks, way to go out on a limb lol.

Hi, Anyone knows how can i sell my car for crypto like what is the process?
Im in Monaco spain and france area Smiley

Just like any other process you would do for cash.  As long as the platform you advertise it on let's you use any funding instrument than you are free to do so.  The problem with high ticket items is how do you do it safely.  There are escrow that can be used, but most likely you are going to have to do it in person.  Just make sure ypu do it in a safe space as you would when dealing with cash.  Good luck and good move on taking an appreciating asset for a depreciating one 😉

All smoke and mirrors from a known troll.  At this point outside of greed why would you put your money into doge.  It is the single most manipulated coin out there.  Elon can drag that thing up or down on a string whenever he likes.  The stress in having one guy say one sentence which can alter your portfolio is insane. 
1526  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Skill Based Slot Machines on: April 05, 2023, 09:52:53 PM
Today I am reading about skill based slot machines which is very popular among millennials. This is the first time I am reading this in my life as a gambler. All that I have known about slot machines is that the outcome is purely based on luck1 as a result of the Random number Generator (RGN). From what I read, the major difference between this skill based slot machines and the regular/traditional ones we know is that there is a bonus round for the players to2 display their skills which gives them a greater chance of winning. Despite this, the odds are still stacked up against the player.
Has anyone here tried it out?
Which do you prefer, traditional slots or skill-based slots?

1. http://bostonsportsextra.com/skill-based-slot-machines-what-are-they-and-how-they-work/
2. http://web.archive.org/slot1.sbs/76959.html


Slots will always be slots.  There a many twists to it but in the end its all luck based winning.  If skill is your thing than you need to pivot over to something like poker in which the players have a hand in if they win or lose.  I've never been a huge slot player but they are fun from time to time like lottery is or scratch off cards, etc.  Never know maybe you hit the big one.  But if I'm playing slots give me easy lol.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis will be very tired and hopefully they will be fit and play well in tomorrow's game because otherwise it will be a little difficult for the Lakers to have a match.

The upcoming game will be very important and difficult for both the Lakers and the Clippers. As for LeBron, he is back from the injury just 5 games ago, and I don't see any reason why LeBron should be very tired even though he played 38 minutes in the last game. On the contrary, it looks like he's just getting back to his old playing shape, considering he made a triple-double in the game against the Rockets and scored 37 points in the game against the Jazz.

I tend to agree with you.  I think maybe that rest for LeBron might have been a blessing in disguise.  They shoukd be going all out tonight.  Landing in the 6 hole vs the 7 gets you a trip to Sacramento instead of Memphis which will be a huge difference come playoff time.  This last week is gonna be fun watching the west.  The east is pretty much ironed out at this point outside of a coue teams.

Is this really confirmed or not?  This is the fight I've been waiting to see.  Crawford isn't getting any younger I want to see him up against the best.  Honestly I still got Crawford winning this fight in a knockout.  Just think his power is too much to handle.  Either way I will be watching this one.

Pretty crazy that I'd rather have a loaded microsoul coin than a coldkey now.  I mean how much of a d bag could one person be.  Blatantly stealing what amounts to a couple gallons of milk from each card lol.  I mean are people really not peeling these yet.  Why wouldn't you at this point?

Great another useless, pointless clone coin yay.  Why do people really buy into these things I mean is it just greed driving all of this.  Please tell me why we need this coin along with the countless others that come and go daily.  Anything unique this project offer?

Hey, first, this is not a project but more like a social experiment.
I wouldn't say useless as it brings people together in a community where they can help each other avoid scams and projects full of lies after their money. This coin is to optionally opt in something joining this community in addition to the telegram group (No need to invest to be useful in a community) . It also has a fun name where a lot of ideas can be crafted by a group of people collaborating.

We don't need the coin, but I'd argue we definitely need such a community.

As a side note: do we really need Doge for example (13Bn marketcap) ? I'd say its how people utilize it or what they see it represents.. Something to think about!

I agree with you on 2 points:

Yes we need to stamdup and get together to help avoid scams
And the point about doge..it's not needed.  It was used as a pump toy that was driven by greed.  The coin itself is useless and provides nothing that can't be cloned in less than an hour.

I just don't understand why you would need a coin for this lol.  Why can't you just have the telegram group?

Regarding about the Warriors and their situation, it seems that their situation will somehow improve and they will be much dangerous in the upcoming days.

Quote
Via Wojnarowski: "ESPN Sources: Golden State Warriors All-Star forward Andrew Wiggins is nearing a return to the team and is expected to be back early this week. Wiggins has missed 21 games attending to a family matter. Huge boost for the defending champions and sixth seed in the West."

Source: https://www.si.com/fannation/nba/fastbreak/news/nba-warriors-andrew-wiggins-update-reported-on-monday

The Golden State Warriors only got three games left to improve their current standing and prevent the team from falling towards the Play-in Tournament bracket. Fortunately for them, Andrew Wiggins will be back on the hardwood again to help the whole team secure their playoff spot.

I'm thinking that he will return on the game versus the Sacramento Kings and not tomorrow versus the Oklahoma City Thunders, no guarantees as of now but this is a good news for the Warriors.

Just in time too.  What a terrible draw for either 1 or 2 spot having to play a fully healthy golden state squad with a chip on theor shoulder.  The west has been really odd, can't pun down who the actual favorites are.  I still think the Suns with a healthy Durant are the team to beat.  Imagine the Nuggets.  Could possibly have to go through the Warriors and then the suns...just to get to the west finals lol.  West is completely up in the air right now

1-3 last night and the one I wasn't too confident in won..
My knicks!

Only a couple of games on the ticket tonight.  Going to take both home teams

Miami getting 2 points at home against Dallas.  I know Dallas will play desperate since they have to win but I still like the heat getting points.

And last gimme the Pelicans at home only giving 3.5 points.  Think the pels cruise at home against the Clippers

Enjoy the games and good luck tonight everyone!



2 for 2 last night trying to go 3 for 3 today.

3 games I like today:

Gimme the Knicks-12.5 against the Wizards.  Washington is pretty much benching their starting lineup.  Knicks should wipe them.

Bucks -5 against the sixers.  Think this is a rebound game from the Celtics game.

Lastly I will take the Suns -5.5 on the road against okc. 

Good luck and enjoy the games people!

2 for 3 not bad.  A couple more minutes and the Knicks could have easily covered.  Good last couple days but it seems so empty tonight with no games on!

Anyone going to be watching the ncaa college finals?  I'm thinking about throwing 2 bets down, one on SD state money line and the under.  My heart says uconn should take this but good odds on the ML right now.  Should be a defensive struggle out there.
1536  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: April 03, 2023, 03:47:59 PM
I love the New York Knicks somehow finding a way to steal a win against the strong Cavaliers in their home and without Julius Randle.
Jalen Brunson, 48 monster points! Is he really that small? Grin Who else can score that much at 6'1?!
He's a beast, a low-key beast and I'm sure that is being recognized by most. I can't get over that match because I thought that the first-half shooting machine of Mitchell was already on momentum but then Brunson shows how to beat it.
The knicks are sneaky becoming a team no one wants to see in the playoffs.  They are one of the best road teams and are tough to beat back to back.  They are gritty and withstood a cavs first quarter of 47 points.  No Randle no problem.

And I'm gonna say this someone tell me I'm wrong.  Brunson was the best steal in free agency in the last 10 years.

Dallas declined extending him 4 years for $55mil mid season last year 😂
And there's this now rumor made by how good Knicks are this season and that's to acquire Luka on them. Well, I don't think that it will ever happen and I do agree that Knicks did the right thing by acquiring Brunson.
No one wouldn't want to face them in the playoffs because of how good they are and they are not overrated while we're saying this. It's just common that they're noticeably good and that's why.

As much as I'd like Luka on the Knicks that isn't happening anytime soon.  Why would Dallas give up a generational player for some pieces back and draft picks which are unknowns.  Them trading for kyrie shows they are trying to build around Luka. No once he hits free agency that would be amazing if knicks had the cap space at that position but that's not until 2027.  Luka isn't going anywhere.
1537  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will you sell Shib now? Am holding on: April 02, 2023, 03:26:04 PM
According to a recent Twitter post by @Finbold, a financial news and information platform, Shib has emerged as the most popular token held by Ethereum whales. Upon encountering this news via CoinMarketCap's news feed this morning, I had originally intended to sell my Shib. However, the announcement has led me to believe that Shib could perform exceptionally well this year. As a Shib enthusiast, I would encourage others to hold onto their tokens as we may witness prosperous times ahead, and our patience may result in significant reward.

Coins like doge, shib, floki won't experience another rise like they see a couple years ago.  They were fads and everyone is still holding a bag of them hoping for the rise.  If everyone is already holding a bag the sell pressure as it rises will be too big to over come.  I think over time these coins will fade into obscurity like most coins eventually succumb to.  I wouldn't hold long.

I actually didn't saw that coming because that specific game was hard to imagine for the Knicks, without Randle who tries to force his way through the opposing team's defense, they will really have a hard time. But, that's not what happened and I was surprised because Brunson proved that he can still give the team another win without Randle. For him, it seems that it's no biggy, really.

Allen Iverson? The man is rumored to be 5'11 even if he was listed to be 6 flat.

Iverson was one of the best players ever at that height and being a scorer.  The dude always seemed to be crashing the paint no matter who was in the middle.  I loved watching him play.  Even as a knick fan I couldn't but love the dude.  Was the best mix of street ball and pro and he changed the game.
1539  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Future of play to earn games on: April 02, 2023, 03:16:16 PM
What do you think about play to earn blockchain games? Do you think that video game players will one day abandon Sony and Microsoft companies for play to earn games or Microsoft and Sony will one day be forced to allow play to earn games to run on their gaming devices?

I think the evolution with gaming converges nicely with crypto.  With the ability to win Mico amounts crypto makes play to earn available.  The constraint before was all the minimum fees, etc making fractional earning not doable.  There have been some projects that dabbled in it so far but nothing I'm going in on.  It will come though.
