I think no matter which player it is, if Dortmund could sell a player for a good price they will, that's their entire existence. Jude would be amazing if they could sell him for 110 million, that would be unrealistic amount for them and could buy so many more young players.

Only problem they have is that they already sold so many good young stars, what will happen after Jude leaves? Like would they still have a few young stars coming up, that would be playing amazingly at Dortmund ne be sold for 70+ million in the future? If they do not have some more coming up from youth setup, then they are going to just be a team that sold some players for a lot of money once, and never had any other success after that.

Well, that  €110 Million was Jude Bellingham's posted price that maybe an estimated price for him or a certain price that they liked him to be bought off, but that will surely be lessened with the talks on the trade, this is a problem with Dortmund they can surely trained players to be great but if  they see an opportunity to sell them they will eventually will sell them off it is just a bummer that Sebastien Haller is not healthy to be used for their plays, they are surely unlucky in picking Haller but I think they are not giving up on him so no problems with Sebastien Haller fans,

And Dortmund surely sells younger players if they got a chance in selling any, well the law of trading buy low and sell high,


I wonder what's wrong with Chelsea currently
Why the signature of all this good player when you have a manager who can not handle a big club as Chelsea
The player would make good decisions at Chelsea but I suggest they fix Graham Potter as fast as they can do so

They have lost the EFL Cup and now the FA Cup to Manchester United by just stopping Erling Haaland from scoring but Manchester City still has other players that can do the job of taking care of the goal, while they just managed to stop Haaland and the Man City just used this to their advantage well I really don't know if the right thing to do is to change the coach or just go with the flow and eventually there are a certain strategy that Graham Potter might fix, but I think man City is seeing into their strategy,

After not betting on yesterday's game and now betting on today's game here are the results it was a 4 out of 4 again,

Detroit Pistons VS Philadelphia 76ers SCORE 111 - 123 - WIN

From start to finish of the game it was the Philadelphia 76ers in the lead for this game, even though Joel Embiid didn't play James Harden has proven that he can lead, Montrezl Harrell got 20 points Tyrese Maxey have 23, and James Harden got a triple-double for this game of 11 rebounds 11 assists and 20 points, winning the game,

Indiana Pacers VS Charlotte Hornets SCORE 116 - 111 - WIN

The Charlotte Hornets made a great start until the Pacers have overtaken them at the end of the 1st half, Tyrese Haliburton got a double-double of 13 Assists and 16 points, Andrew Nembhard has 19 points, Buddy Hield got 21 points and Myles Turner has 29 points, winning the game,


Miami Heat VS Brooklyn Nets SCORE 101 - 102 - WIN

This was a close game and but the Brooklyn Nets surely has the upper hand in the 1st half, by gaining 66 points on a 64 points Heat, Nic Claxton got a double-double of 11 rebounds and 13 points, Seth Curry got 14 points, Kevin Durant has 17 points and Kyrie Irving made 29 points,


Houston Rockets VS Minnesota Timberwolves SCORE 96 - 104 - WIN

I thought that the Rockets can claim the victory base on their starting performance, but the Timberwolves have flipped the table and turned the situation around, Rudy Gobert got a double-double of 11 rebounds and 18 points, and Anthony Edwards has 21 points and D'Angelo Russell has made 22 points winning the game,

Oh, Clarkson. What are you doing?!
This is the second time he raised those fists of him. The first was against Kuminga and now against Desmond Bane and he ain't done even on his way out after ejection due to flagrant 2, acting like a thug in the court. I am a Filipino but I don't like these unsportsmanlike actions, you get mad when you are hit not when you are the one who hit. It's not fit for a physical sport. Also, he acts like he is guilty about the smack in the face of Bane.
If you didn't mean it, say you're sorry or just walk out to the bench. If they attack you then just push them back, don't raise your fist. I bet the NBA will make him fine for that gesture.
Here is the clip.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXUDaOG-gFE
He's doing the Steph Curry "night-night" teasing the Grizzlies.
My bet builder for him and Markkanen was wasted because he was ejected and the Jazz lost the game.
They will meet again on February 16 at Grizzlies' home before the All-Star.

Jordan Clarkson is a really legit "KATIPUNERO" for challenging Desmond Bane and Jaren Jackson Jr. but we also know how Desmond Bane plays, he is full of trash talk just like Drillon "Dynasty" Brooks, and Ja "Almost" Morant, that is why the bird with the same feather flocks together, I think Desmond Bane have initially trash talked Jordan Clarkson in my opinion that Triggered his KATIPUNERO side, Well I am not siding with Jordan Clarkson and I am not siding with anyone, but I agree he shouldn't act like that I should have said if he is Filipino he should have good moral and right conduct but seeing him getting ready to brawl I should say the NBA should have fined him for doing such gesture,



Yeah Lakers still suck, until they secure a playoff spot. I'm not sure if they'll probably miss the playoffs this year or they'll make it if they're being consistent. Nobody knows.
However, I disagree to what you said that the last call might not be a foul? Bro, that was a blocking foul as Fox push Schroeder away from the basket using his body. Well, clearly you were not actually watching the game, I guess you've only had the glimpsed of the last second replay to say that the Lakers got away with the L. The refs favoured the Kings the whole game, that 3 pt continuation play from Westbrook could've ended the game already.

I haven't watched the full match aswell but as you have said, it was clearly a foul and the Lakers have to get away from it and won the game, for me, the Lakers are doing great right now but wrong calls from the referee will surely matter with the games and can surely affect the whole outcome but it is really part of what is happening the Sacramento Kings can surely file a petition about this but it will be a long and excruciating process so no ones is filing anything,

Can we move on from that alcoholic misbehavior to professional fighting? Nothing new happened. It is so expected that when you alcohol enters your blood and brain, you might behave inappropriate. Such things (violence due to alcohol) happen all over the world. Everyone knows that it is bad, but keep on doing same all over again.

Lets better focus on Imavov vs Gastelum event. Kelvin Gastelum - I think this guy is about to be released from UFC. Just look at his record 5 losses in lat 6 fights. Not a very successful record since 2016. Compared to Imavov record, Gastelum is much weaker.

If Dana White is involved then I think it is what everyone expects to make a topic and it also involves the health of the UFC that we all love, but anyway you are correct we should move on and discuss the next event that is this week, but for this event, I am more siding with Nassourdine Imavov even though Kelvin Gastelum has a decent chin it is not enough if you keep on brawling with Nassourdine Imavov but this fight may also go the distance which is pretty much how Gastelum fight used to be because of his sturdy chin,


With the tight competition in this industry, they are going down if their sponsorships will stop supporting them but if they will gonna turn blind about what happened, then the UFC will continue and this thing will be buried. But right now as you said, it's all around the internet and this will gonna be a long topic for some time in the upcoming days. I doubt what happened to Kanye West will also happen to him because both guys are different, Dana owns the company while West is just getting some money from his sponsorships.

It is very alarming because there are sponsorship that is cutting ties with the UFC, and maybe shifting to Bellator or PFL or some other MMA sports companies available, but knowing Dana White I get the feeling that he will be swag and chill most of the time, and I think eventually this will die out and be forgotten when another scandal happen, 

1845  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 08, 2023, 10:26:46 PM
Pretty much been busy lately but here is the result of the January 6, game

Chelsea FC VS Manchester City FC GOAL 0 - 1 - WIN

It seems that Chelsea really exposed Erling Haaland from their last game and they have completely shut him off from scoring a goal Haaland has found a way but it seems it is still not his lucky day to make a goal from this game aswell, but as hopes were lost Jack Grealish had open a path and assisting the ball to Riyad Mahrez in making the 1st goal for Manchester City, it has a great impact to the team boosting their confidence in winning this game,


Losing 1-0 in the Premier League, and now they have to lose 4-0, not getting better but their situation getting worse when facing the same team. In a hurry, maybe that's the right word to describe how Chelsea's management made the decision to sack Thomas Tuchel. Graham Potter who was appointed as the next coach was even worse than the previous coach. Will they now do the same by firing Graham Potter again? The decisions to be taken are even tougher now for Chelsea's management to make their team even better.

This is pretty much common in the football league if a coach is not doing well in winning they will immediately fire him and don't give him a reason for doubt or have him take on a plan to make adjustments for the team and find a solution but yeah they really want a fast solution to the problem and this is their solution which for me is not really amusing, Chelsea was really great in their defense but providing them with a great offense is a must in stopping Erling Haaland from scoring like that was really a great deal of work for the coaches to figuring that out, but they surely need to figure out a way to score back,

I am so much disappointed at Chelsea's performance in the FA cup competition against Manchester city. Poor defense, poor midfield and poor attack right from the first minutes to the end. FA cup was the last hope for Chelsea and I was expecting Porter to show more focus and all amount of seriousness , but rather, the remaining injury free players that were productive in the last epl match against Mancherster city he kept on bench and then brought few of them in after losing 3-0. Graham Porter is a failure.

Well their performance in stopping Erling Haaland in the previous game was great for me, but their performance here seems a little off I think that Manchester City has already figured it out about it, and because their main focus was on Erling Haaland they forgot the main aspect of Football and that is teamwork Erling Haaland has a great team that can figure out for themselves what to do and using the opportunity in creating an opening through Haaland defender, well the thing is they can surely stop Haaland but focusing on him is not really a great thing to do, we can see that even in the FA Cup they have defeated Chelsea again and this time with 4 - 0 goals and Erling Haaland still didn't score but they make a progress in using that to their advantage, and learning from it while Chelsea in not learning anything from their previous games,
1846  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: January 08, 2023, 09:05:11 PM

Well, I admit I was a little out of date with this All-Star game information.
But I think that's what I had in mind, LJ and Curry on one side and Durant and Kyrie Irving on the other.
I confess that it will be an interesting game!


I was really excited to see some stuff with the voting and the final voting will be announced on TNT, and this time Lebron James and Kevin Durant are the two favorable captains again, I really liked the last time when these 2 captains try to pick their likable players, in their team, but this time It is up to fans that will vote for the 2023 NBA all-star, it will be an interesting game and what ay happen with the 2023 all-stars,


Well, to whoever was complaining, I guess Westbrook and Reeves deserve a spot in the allstar game. The only reason why they look like a mediocre with the Lakers, is because they were under the shade of LeBron's spotlight. I kinda admire Westbrook for embracing his role and adjusting himself into a position where he can still contribute to the team. Look at him, he could still drop a triple double even with a minimal scoring. Put Westbrook or Reeves to a team that has no legit superstar that carries the team the whole time and they'll surprise with their potential.

You are right, and even though I am pretty much not a Westbrick fan, I think both him and Austin Reeves deserves to play, in the all-star, which is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander aswell have made it via fan vote, I really think there are fresh faces that made it on the list because fans have seen something in them and that potential is surely put up to good used,


It is posted during the Denver game too so I think it's an updated version. But it's just the initial returns, this is not yet the final list of who will be in the All-Star.
SGA getting a lot of votes, that's good news for the OKC Thunder fans.
Lauri Markkanen at 7th spot, nice. I am voting for this dude, he is an All-Star caliber and he is showing it now in NBA and so does in FIBA Euroleague.
6 players in the Golden State Warriors. I think that's just too much. I am a Steph Curry fan but this is not looking good if we see their whole team faces in All-Star.
Draymond Green
Kevon Looney
Klay Thompson
Andrew Wiggins
Jordan Poole
Steph Curry
Is Sacramento Kings fanbase that small? Where are Fox and Sabonis? I mean I am glad to see Haliburton for the Pacers but the two guys from Kings should join too. I hope it's just because the initial results from Sacramento was just late.

Well that is good to hear that this is really an updated list but yes it could not be the final or initial line-up for the all-star 2023 actually I like this line of Lebron James and Kevin Durant are once again the captain for each team while Stephen Curry is for the west and Kyrie Irving for the East but yeah mostly in there are Warriors which means a big payout for the team next season, which is not really looking good and yes the Kings player should have been given a chance, there should be a De'Aaron Fox, Kevin Huerter, Harrison Barnes, Domantas Sabonis or even the new faces Keegan Murray,
1847  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: MMA Info and Predictions - Bellator, KSW, PFL, ONE... on: January 08, 2023, 01:47:44 PM

Ah...  Then that makes his transition to MMA a lot easier.  On top of my head UFC fighters Cody Durden and Jonathan Pearce both have high school wrestling backgrounds and they've been holding their own.  Durden is so so but Jonathan Pearce could be a top 5 guy sooner or later.

All in all, I'm excited for Jake Paul's first MMA match.  I'll take a shot on whoever is the underdog.  Grin  If it's Jake Paul, books prolly doesn't rate his wrestling background high which could be a mistake and if it's the other guy then books could be overestimating Jake Paul's chances if that makes any sense.  Lol.  There's just a lot of unknowns.

It really makes sense that if Jake Paul has a wrestling background in his high school days then that can be a big advantage for him and I think this is a good chance for him to redeem himself from his past losses with boxing because maybe he is good at MMA than with Boxing and clearly he is not like Jake Paul he doesn't have the talent and skill to be that like Jake, if he is certainly good at wrestling then maybe he can have a comeback with the MMA,


If Nate really signs that fighting contract with Jake, I think it is very predictable what Nate is going to do. He will fight in his usual relaxed manner. And instead of dealing maximum damage with few punches, he will throw dozens middle powered ones, just to show how dominant he is. I even think that instead of real punches, he will throw slaps, or prefer not to finish Jake. If in Jakes last fight I doubted that it will go full distance (I thought that Silva would KO him), then a fight (MMA) with Nate would go full distance. Just because Nate is going to be chilled, relaxed, stoned during the fight Cheesy

This is great we all know Nate Diaz doesn't want a crap fixed match and we can surely see how legit this match will be because this is Nate Diaz, he doesn't really want drama if this is Nate Diaz then it will be hard to bribe him in fixing the fight with Jake Paul, and yeah it could be the distance for this fight, and Nate Diaz could also play with Jake Paul and instead of finishing the fight early, this could be a Nate Diaz show,
1848  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: January 08, 2023, 10:34:36 AM

Let's be honest and say that his wife gave the first slap attack and after that he replied with his slaps, but something stinks in this whole story, and we don't know what Dana told her before slap.
Much more people are now aware of his Power Slap competition, after someone conveniently recorded that video in night club.



It is their personal problem on what happened in that altercation but if he does that in public what is happening in their private lives, surely his wife hit him 1st, and if you are mad Dana White probably doesn't think straight that night and just like what I am always saying that when emotions are high intelligence is low and Dana White isn't really thinking straight but it is clearly domestic violence against women, he is now on the list of male personality that has shown aggression towards his wife,

That Dana White and that slap scandal is everywhere. That is great example how one second can ruin reputation built for years. Imho, what Dana White has done is unacceptable. Specially in a lawful society like it is in US. I suggest everyone to follow the numbers of UFC subscriptions and event attendance, as this year, they are going to go down.

Well, we can not access what really happened back then the whole story, and what started it I think both Dana White and his wife would likely want this to keep private, the reputation of Dana White is on the line here, and his whole career and even the UFC might be at stake aswell, for me this is better kept private however this is surely domestic violence for sure but it is on Dana White's white to file a case against him to take this a formal case against White,
1849  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: January 08, 2023, 09:40:30 AM
Here are my picks for games tomorrow,

Detroit Pistons VS Philadelphia 76ers

The stake odds for this game are 2.80 for the Pistons, and 1.46 for the 76ers, Marvin Bagley III, and Isaiah Livers can not play for the Pistons, and  Buddy Boeheim and Jalen Duren are questionable if they could play, while Joel Embiid and P.J. Tucker can not play for the 76ers, well for this game the Piston does have many supporters, for this game even though Joel Embiid can not play my pick is the Philadelphia 76ers,

Indiana Pacers VS Charlotte Hornets

The stake odds for this game are 1.45 for the Pacers and 2.85 for the Hornets, right now Daniel Theis can not play for the Pacers, while Kendall Brown, Jalen Smith, and Bennedict Mathurin are questionable if they can play for the Pacers, now the Charlotte Hornets have Kelly Oubre Jr., can not play for the Hornets and Gordon Hayward is doubtful if he can play for the Hornets, I think I can trust the Pacers winning this game, so my pick is the Indiana Pacers,

Miami Heat VS Brooklyn Nets

The stake odds for this game are 2.39 for the Heat and 1.61 for the Nets, right now Omer Yurtseven, Nikola Jovic, and Duncan Robinson can not play for the Heat. At the same time, Tyler Herro, Bam Adebayo, Gabe Vincent, Caleb Martin, Dewayne Dedmon, and Udonis Haslem are all questionable if they can play, for the Heat, while Brooklyn Nets are in good shape, for this match, Miami Heat has many injuries that may likely take a toll with their performance and right now the Nets are pretty much consistent in winning, so my pick is the Brooklyn Nets,

Houston Rockets VS Minnesota Timberwolves

The stake odds for this game are 2.14 for the Rockets and 1.75 for the Timberwolves, Right now the Houston Rockets are 100% healthy, while Jordan McLaughlin, and Karl-Anthony Towns, can not play for the Timberwolves, while Bryn Forbes, Anthony Edwards, and Naz Reid is questionable if they can play for the Timberwolves, even though the Rockets doesn't have any injuries I will still go with the Timberwolves, so my pick is the Minnesota Timberwolves,

1850  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: MMA Info and Predictions - Bellator, KSW, PFL, ONE... on: January 07, 2023, 04:23:31 AM

Dana is still into combat sports, just not into the ones we used to associate him with. You know Dana, the mixed world in MMA doesn't mean men get put in fights with women Wink
What do you think? Should he resign?

Dana White was filmed slapping his wife in the face during a New Year's Eve row
He has apologized, but comments from 2014 have now come back to haunt him
He said you could 'never bounce back from putting your hands on a woman'


https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/mma/article-11593775/White-said-dont-bounce-hitting-woman-stay-UFC-chief-wife-slap.html




His comments in 2014 were really true and back then that was really sincere in my opinion but surely enough Dana White is just human that could always do wrongful things and there might be something that happen between the two that we may never know we never see the whole picture, maybe this slap had cause something to make him feel like that uncle Dana White really tends to say such things then forgets about them but let's just wait and see what may happen to the UFC,

To be fair, his wife started the physical altercation and he returned that back and on top of that both were drunk. Everyone can talk a big talk if they are not in the situation and Dana White never expected to be in that situation when he was making these big statements and now he is under fire but he will sort the situation and his wife already made a statement favoring him.

Yup! the whole picture will note whole if we are just taking one side of the coin there might be something that triggered Dana White to do it, and this could be just a misunderstanding but I do agree with the fact that he hurt a woman and that would not change a thing, but let's just be fair on both side by knowing what really happens with the altercation,

Jake Paul has an amateur wrestling background and then he made his transition to boxing, so he has the basics regarding take down defense unlike pure strikers who added wrestling at a later part of their career.

I think he is thinking ways in the sense where he is good at, while his brother Jake Paul is really decent in boxing and this is proven in his previous fights but I think this is a hand-picked fight that he can smash, Logan Paul in the other hand is not really decent in boxing he can surely box, but maybe he is not picking his fight, he is just going through things that can really make him money, but if he is a wrestler in the 1st place then he can surely get that technique and added his striking capabilities, maybe he can fight in MMA,

For once I was really happy with the result, and here are my pick on yesterday's game

Orlando Magic VS Memphis Grizzlies SCORE 115 -123 - WIN

It seems that the Grizzlies have taken the lead in the 1st half of the game then the Magic tried to make the game a close one, but it was not really successful, Dillion "Dynasty" Brooks got 11 points, Tyus Jones had 12, Jaren Jackson Jr. has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 31 points while Ja Morant's has 32 points to win the game,

Dallas Mavericks VS Boston Celtics SCORE 95 - 124 - WIN

From start to finish the Celtics have the upper hand and they even stop Luka Doncic with just 23 points, Both Marcus Smarts and Malcolm Brogdon both got 15 points, and Jaylen Brown had 19 points, while Jayson Tatum got a Triple-double of 14 rebounds, and 10 assist and 29 points to win the game,

Houston Rockets VS Utah Jazz SCORE 114 - 131 - WIN

We can say that it was a one-sided game for these two, from start to finish the Utah Jazz had the lead Both Jordan Clarkson and Malik Beasley got 19 points, while Lauri Markkanen has 49 points for their 1st win after 5 consecutive losses,

Denver Nuggets VS Los Angeles Clippers SCORE 122 - 91 - WIN

Like the Rockets VS Jazz game this is another 1 sided game aswell, the Nuggets got a great spread, all have surely worked as a team and they have worked as a team and it was great to watch,


1852  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: MMA Info and Predictions - Bellator, KSW, PFL, ONE... on: January 06, 2023, 09:08:20 AM
I think UFC will never agree to let their fighters fight in other promotion or against a non UFC fighter. I think they will always look on other promotions "from the top" and act like their promotion is to unique to fight against someone else. From business point of view, that might even work out well, as it will increase the exclusiveness of UFC.


Yup! I highly doubted it aswell, it seems that Dana White is not interested in dealing with any combat sports and UFC is the number 1 in the business right now, he doesn't want his competition to gain fame the people by backing it up with that kind of event but I am just hoping that it can have some probability, in doing it,


He has some balls alright. Logan is among the cofounder of the organization that newly create PPV Super fights of PFL where he'd fight Nate. Don't know what to think about it but he is to fight Diaz in boxing and then MMA after it. Diaz definitely got a good deal.

Since Logan will be marketing this PFL, he might invite more of the retired UFC fighters.


He surely wants a competition with Dana White and since he is Logan Paul a well-known content creator, influencer, and Crypto Scammer, I think he can be the face of PFL right and maybe this will not be a bad merging for PFL aswell, but I surely doubt it that they can out throne UFC, but PFL will become pretty much popular when that happens, and yes he would surely do everything to make that happen to get the retired UFC fighters to be on PFL and have a 1 last fight to make cash,

1853  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: January 06, 2023, 06:54:49 AM
^  If watch the match tho, Phil Hawes didn't really do anything vs Imavov except grind him in the cage then nothing.  It went on for a couple of rounds until there was some adjustment from Imavov in the third but it was too late.  Hawes was already up a couple of rounds.

Gastelum is prolly on his way out.

Anyway, at first glance I like Imavov, Soriano, Vieira, Nurmagomedov, Alhassan, Nascimento and Jimmy Flick.  I could go for some parlays on those guys and a straight bet on Flick.  He was pretty good in the regional scene and Charles Johnson seems like  he doesn't any urgency in the cage.  It could cost him.

Well it was a close match in my opinion but I really thought that Phil Hawes lost that one and Nassourdine Imavov actually win it, but it was a majority for Phil Hawes for me this is but it was really too late for Nassourdine Imavov to turn the tables and to show the judges that he really deserves the win, and after this fight Nassourdine Imavov have become a more different fighter learning from this defeat,

More bad news are coming for Dana White after slapping incident with his wife, and this time his Power Slap League gets removed from TBS programming schedule.
They said this event was moved to different date January 18, maybe they expect things will cool down and people will forget one slap Wink
It's possible that UFC is slowly going to decline, they have betting scandal with fixed fights, biggest stars are not very active, and Jake Paul just became MMA fighter in different organization.


Well, uncle Dana White doesn't want to slap a fighter that may retaliate so he is using his wife as a substitute, well he is a well-known person who needs to learn to control his temper just one piece of negative news about the UFC will surely suffer from that consequence,

If the main man in the UFC is hurting a woman or a lady what more do the fighters in that combat sports company I guess uncle Dana has something to say about this, let's just wait,

The next All-Star NBA game this 2023 season is right around the corner, and regarding the updated voting I think Lebron James and Kevin Durant was still the favorite to be captains of the team, and their guards for the West is Stephen Curry, and for the East is Kyrie Irving, surely enough I am excited about who's going to be MVP again, I have seen that Russell Westbrick was on the list and many are complaining about Austin Reaves getting on the list aswell, which is I really think seems OK and surely Shai Gilgeous-Alexander have made it while he is extremely great at playing at the Oklahoma City Thunder,

While here is the list for the All-star voting for now, I really don't know if this is updated and I have just seen it on the news,


1855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: January 05, 2023, 06:39:13 PM
I simply don't know if Jazz are awful or if Kings are good this season.... because Jazz had a phenomenal start of season by going in 1st place and having a massive winning streak and since then , they are in free falling that seems it won't stop soon. Then , we have Kings who have been at the bottom of NBA for quite some years now but since they got Sabonis , the entire team kinda changed and I don't see them missing the play-offs anymore and this can be a massive boost in moral for this team but also for the city and fans. Cool

Most of the teams have changed since the recent draft and trades and the addition to the teams were really the core fundamentals of why most teams are playing really well and judging by the Jazz's recent good games and winning at the beginning of the season, pretty much this is their team recently exploring what they can do, and I think they don't have any good chemistry yet so if this continues maybe they can pull this off but yeah in recent game they are now always just close away from winning it is like they were curse or something, but most of the time they will not win were the game was pretty much close, while the Kings I think they are finding their rhythm  now and the chemistry of the players aswell,

It will be a struggle, that will be certain. But they still have one of the elite players in the league with CJ McCollum who had been playing great offense and Jonas Valančiūnas. And they don't have a bad bench team with Alvarado, Trey Murphy, and Jaxson Hayes.

Yeah, it was really a struggle without Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram, they just manage to pull that win up because of CJ McCollum but the team manage to have pulled a great spread and that was against the Rockets that have known to not be in their great season,



He will be crucial if he misses the playoffs. That means Gordon, Murray, and Porter Jr. will need to step up their game in a level they never had done.
Jokic is the heart of their team, it's hard to imagine a Nuggets team without him.

The Denver Nuggets is a very different team without Nikola Jokic it is not really enough to even with Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon it was very different and they surely struggle a lot right now Jokic needs to stay healthy until the play-offs, well teams like these are just managing in surviving if they can get the championship with that just less effort then it is a jackpot for them, but right now Denver Nugget is still good with a healthy Nikola Jokic on their side,

Now here are my picks for tomorrow's game

Orlando Magic VS Memphis Grizzlies

The stake odds for this game are 3.45 for the Magic and 1.33 for the Grizzlies, right now Chuma Okeke, Jonathan Isaac, and Bol Bol can not play for the Magic and Jalen Suggs is questionable if he can play for the Magic, while Danny Green can not play for the Grizzlies, and Brandon Clarke is questionable if he can play, for this game I think that the Grizzlies surprised me the most on their last game, and right now Ja "Almost" Morant is getting his game up while Dillon "Dynasty" Brooks is keeping himself together again with the defense, so my pick is the Grizzlies,

Dallas Mavericks VS Boston Celtics

The stake odds for this game are 2.22 for the Mavericks and 1.70 for the Celtics, Right now Maxi Kleber, Dorian Finney-Smith, and Josh Green can not play for the Mavericks while Danilo Gallinari can not play for the Celtics, for this game right now I think the Celtics is needing a win now that they have 2 consecutive losses, so for this game, my pick is the Boston Celtics,

Houston Rockets VS Utah Jazz

The stake odds for this game are 3.20 for the Rockets and 1.37 for the Jazz, right now Jae'Sean Tate, can not play for the Rockets, while Collin Sexton can not play for the Jazz, and for this game for me the Utah Jazz still has the fundamental of a great team, but managing them is not that easy with just Collin Sexton are out and can not play, I think they can handle the Rockets probably fine, so my pick is the Utah Jazz,

Denver Nuggets VS Los Angeles Clippers

The stake odds for this game are 1.51 for the Nuggets and 2.65 for the Clippers, right now the Nuggets have Collin Gillespie, Peyton Watson and Jeff Green can not play for them because of individual injuries, while Nicolas Batum, can not play for the Clippers, while Nicolas Batum is questionable if he can play for the Clippers but for me because of that I think that the Nuggets had a more solid team just my intuition but this is what I see, so my pick will be the Denver Nuggets,

This is it but it will be on next week so it is really too early to put my picks but what I think about this fight I think that Kelvin Gastelum will have a hard time with Nassourdine Imavov, and if we see a Dagestan fighter and the only loss was from a decision from Phil Hawes but Nassourdine Imavov should also need to be careful against Gastelum we all know the durability of this fighter Kelvin Gastelum has a very Durable chin that he could surely use against Nassourdine Imavov, even though he lost he still goes the distance and always losing via decision against Israel Adesanya, Darren Till, Robert Whittaker, and Jared Cannonier, while in Ian Heinisch, case Gastelum did win via decision,

Right now I am pretty much waiting for the UFC 283: Teixeira vs. Hill, UFC Fight Night | Lewis vs. Spivak, and the real main event the champion vs champion fight that many are waiting for, UFC 284 | Makhachev vs. Volkanovski,

LFA will start their first event in this year at January 6, it's LFA 149 where the main event is flyweight bout between Felipe Bunes vs Yuma Horiuchi, the co main event is heavyweight bout between Ben Tynan vs Henrique Silva. I think this event is more focus for Brazilian MMA fans, let's see if both Bunes and Silva can able make Brazilian fans are happy with their performance.



LFA 149 Quick Card
Felipe Bunes  vs.  Yuma Horiuchi 125 lbs
Ben Tynan  vs.  Henrique Silva 265 lbs
Marcus McGhee  vs.  Luciano Ramos 135 lbs
An Ho  vs.  E. De Los Santos 125 lbs
Eric McConico  vs.  Billy Elekana 185 lbs
Eric Fimbres  vs.  Tony Charles 185 lbs
Cedric Katambwa  vs.  Adam Garcia 155 lbs
Paul Marghitas  vs.  Bradley Emmett 145 lbs
Grace DiFrancesco  vs.  Kayla Reagan 115 lbs
Ezra Elliott  vs.  Nicholas Gjelaj 135 lbs

Interesting the Flyweight will surely be in the spotlight right now and it is Brazil VS Japan that is going to fight my take about the main event is I guess Felipe Bunes has the edge when it comes to reach advantage he got the height aswell but not that much, both can finish the fight via KO/TKO or a submission but for me Felipe Bunes is more technical when it comes to his striking and when comes the opportunity he can surely grabs it, my take I would go with Felipe Bunes,

Bellator fighters are no joke and we saw that in this event with Rizin with full dominance and 5:0 result.
Picture would be much different with UFC fighters but I am sure Bellator would win fights again in some categories.
I like what happened and I want to see more tournaments like this in fiture.

For me, the level of competitiveness against UFC versus Bellator is very different from the level of how fighter work with UFC the fighter in Bellator
we can say that the Old fighters in the UFC are now coming to Bellator to snatch themselves some belts not because they can but because they still can, and some will surely become dominant in that kind of division, we can see many old fighters changing to Bellator because the level of competition was not for them anymore and it is already has shifted,

So I think if there would be a UFC VS Bellator fight card collaboration for me I think UFC will have many fighters winning than Bellator, I don't want to say there will be dominance on the UFC side but there will be a lot that may win on the UFC,

Tottenham got the win they wanted by a really huge score like 4-0. It was Kane's day at the same time. He scored the first two goals and relieved his team a lot as well. Because the first half was pretty problematic for them and they must be thankful for finishing it 0-0. But Crystal Palace couldn't keep their effort in the second half.

Kane has scored 15 goals in the league so far. If it weren't for Haaland's insane performance with 21 goals Kane would have been in a serious fight for being the top scorer. But he is still amazing with this effort.

It was a remarkable night for Tottenham but even though I will surely bet for Tottenham on this one aswell not because I like Tottenham more than Crystal Palace but surely because the favorable to here is Tottenham most likely but surely Crystal Palace is known for their good striking but Tottenham have taken them by surprise,


The last statistic on 3 matches is the same, but still, Manc City has the favorite to win, I don't know why?. the odds look crazy which can make many bettor to select draw or Chelsea to win. We know, Stamford Bridge has not haunted anymore, many club win on that stadium in several years back. I don't know why Chelsea can't hold that stadium for just Chelsea and fans. It's good time to fix the stadium belongs to Chelsea, especially for a club like Manchester City. Just make a win for the rival to make the fans happy.


1st maybe because they now got Erling Halland on their team, 2nd their position in the Premier League is a sure impact with the odds, but for sure Manchester City is the heavy favorite just because of this aspect and they are quiet popular right now, and I think this is pretty much a normal bet for many to bet on Manchester City than with  Chelsea, but surely there are Chelsea fan that may find this as still Chelsea still going to win here,



Right now Premier League got 1 game and here is what I think

Chelsea FC VS Manchester City FC

Stake odds for this game are 5.00 for Chelsea FC, 4.10 for a draw, and 1.68 for Manchester City, right now Ben Chilwell, Wesley Fofana, Reece James, Armando Broja, and N'Golo Kanté can not play for Chelsea while Benjamin Mendy was suspended and can not play, for me I would go with Manchester City not just because they had Erling Halland but because they got a complete package now, and Chelsea has a lot of injuries,

It was EPIC! no, it was a disastrous outcome that befall me and I got 1 / 4 win,

Orlando Magic VS Oklahoma City Thunder SCORE 126 - 115 - LOST

It was the Magic that got the lead 1st in the 1st quarter but Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (so long name) really is a monster on the court getting 33 points and leading this game score, surely they are Josh Giddey for backup 16 points, but it was not enough and they were checkmate by the Magic because Orlando Magic did the epic pay was almost all of their players have double-digit points so that Shai's score didn't really matter, and so the Magic have won this match,

Minnesota Timberwolves VS Portland Trail Blazers SCORE 113 - 106 - LOST

I never thought that the Timberwolves still had this on them and against the Trail Blazers I really didn't see this coming maybe the Trail Blazer has some trouble Damian Lillard could take the W but Anthony Edwards got the better of him by securing the game on the 1st half,

New Orleans Pelicans VS Houston Rockets SCORE 119 - 108 - WIN

No Williamson and Ingram no problem, and this is because the Rockets really didn't stand a chance the Pelicans have secured an epic 1st half lead against the Rockets, and just like I have said CJ McCollum really  got it going with 28 points Jonas Valanciunas have a double-double of 17 rebounds and 16 points, and Naji Marshall also got 16 points winning the game,  

Golden State Warriors VS Detroit Pistons SCORE 119 - 122 - LOST

Well the lack of defender has made the Golden State Warriors very vulnerable and Jordan Poole is now doing both as defense and offense same as Klay has made a huge toll on the players of the Warriors and it was really shown in the overtime run and because I don't really like to see them losing this much but the game is really close and I think there is no shame in this game because they got a lot of injured players, right now and Poole and Thompson really need a day off in playing pressure every game,
