Kamusta betting nyo kabayan? Sa akin ay matumal narin netong nakaraan at mailap na masyado ang swerte o di kaya sadyang napaka unpredictable lang ng games ngayon dahil nga ay malapit na rin matatapos ang regular season. Pero wala tayong magagawa kundi subukan muli ang swerte natin Grin hataw na naman tayo!

Los Angeles Lakers +3 at Chicago Bulls ML @ 2.40

Parehas tayo kabayan, napakailap ng swerte sa atin ngayon, bakit kaya hehe. Pero sadyang ganyan talaga buhay ng mga bettors, may pagkakataon talaga na ganito na kahit anong sinusugalan ay hindi talaga mananalo at may panahon rin naman na yong kabaligtaran ang nangyayari.

Warriors -3.5 @1.98 vs Mavs

Malaki ang chance na hindi maglalaro si Irving dahil may nabasa ako sa tweeter 5 minutes ago na kakarating lang nya sa venue which is unusual dahil kadalasan ay magwa-warm up na siya sa ganitong oras. Napag-isipan ko na hindi ako susuko sa Warriors kaya ayon, nakapusta na naman sa kanila hehe.

Ang saklap ng pagkatalo nitong taya mong to sa pagkakaalala ko medyo masaya na sana nung naipasok ni Looney yung dalawang FT kaya lang dun sa 1.7 seconds na natira hindi pa rin ni let go ng Dallas nakapag time out pa at naitira pa ni Bullock sa tres at naipasok kala ko talaga lusot ka na dito eh.

Ganyan talaga yung alat siguro kung ML yung taya mo eh medyo meron kang biyaya sa panalo ng Warriors pero talagang inalat
bawi na lang ulit sa susunod.

Oo nga eh, may mga panahon talaga na ganyan na di talaga pinapahintulot na manalo tayo kahit nanalo yung team na tinayaan natin. Ang masaklap eh okay na sana eh, pero sa isang iglap biglang di na cover yung spread. Pero ganun paman, bawi tayo diba kabayan hehe. May Lakers na naman mamaya laban sa Thunders at ilan pang magagandang tayaan.

Indiana Pacers vs Boston Celtics -11.5
Milwaukee Bucks -9 vs Utah Jazz
Phoenix Suns vs Sacramento Kings -4
Oklahoma City Thunder vs Los Angeles Lakers -5.5

Well, carrying out a brief analysis of what was mentioned, I also believe that the Lakers have a little hope to get a seed in these playoffs, but for that to happen they need to be impeccable in the next games, as this will be something decisive for them. ..

OKC, Timberwolves, Mavs and Jazz, these are the other teams that are in a similar situation to the Lakers, that is, it will be extremely close competition for any team to get the last remaining seeds for these playoffs.

That's the result now of the Lakers losing too many games in the early to mid-season.

Aside from they really badly need to win their remaining games, they also need to depend on losing those teams above them.

If only they managed to get on a good track in their early games, they will still be in the close competition in the play-in but not in the status they are now currently that they need to depend on other teams losing their respective games just for Lakers to make a chance for a playoff spot.

Yes, it's kinda too late for them to think about the ifs that could've brought the team to a much comfortable position because they were also the reasons why they are struggling in their situation now and what they should do is just deal with the cards they have now. Fortunately for them, it's not yet too late to make amends because the players they have now are much more capable compared to the old roster that has been around since the season started.
2023  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: March 23, 2023, 07:43:13 PM
As I have said previously here that Tank is going to train in Mayweather's gym, suddenly he tell us that it's no longer the case,

Quote
Goaded by Garcia during a twitter spat on Tuesday, Davis (28-0, 26 KOs) divulged that Mayweather banned the southpaw star from using his facilities.

“What? That Floyd’s petty ass said I couldn’t use his gym anymore. I don’t give a f---!” Davis wrote in a now deleted tweet.

https://www.boxingscene.com/tank-davis-says-mayweather-barred-him-from-using-gym-ahead-ryan-garcia-fight--173285

Maybe it's true, maybe not, and we don't know what is the intention of Floyd to banned Tank as we thought that everything is cool between the two even if Davis didn't renew his contract with Mayweather. Or maybe this is just to hype the fight more, but doesn't make sense since this is obviously one of the biggest fight of the year already.

On the same article, it's not just Ryan Garcia who revealed it as it looks like Gervonta Davis also confirmed the claim afterwards that Floyd Mayweather Jr. indeed banned the latter from entering and using any facilities inside Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas, Nevada. Now, just like what you've said, it's not disclosed why Tank was banned and why now? Fight is already nearing and Tank could really use some help by setting up his camp inside his former promoter's gym.

Anyway, sooner or later, we will know what's the root of this as I know that Tank Davis and his camp will release a statement as they don't like to be portraited as bullied in the social media.
2024  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: March 23, 2023, 05:21:46 PM
It's probably over for Lakers. If you look at the fixture you'll know they can't win most of these remaining games. In fact I'll be surprised if they get 4 wins in these 9 games. Only Rockets game look easy on paper. All other games are pretty hard or even for them. If Bron was back there could be some hope but in the current situation we can say that they have no chance.
For some reason, Lakers is talked about much more than other teams and the game they play in return is mediocre to say the least.

I think I might oppose that statement you gave because if the Lakers managed to defeat the Suns earlier, then I think they can probably manage to win most of the remaining games. It will be a tough challenge for sure but looking at the current roster now, they are much interesting to see especially now that AR15 is stepping up his game and contributing 30+ and 20+ point in their previous games. The way I see it, the Lakers got more chances now compared to previous roster that made them a weak team even if they are thriving so hard.
2025  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Shakur Stevenson vs Shuichiro Yoshino April 8 on: March 23, 2023, 02:27:31 PM

Most boxers started that way though, and I think this was separates the elite from B-fighters. Because elite fighters again will slowly goes up and then win belts make a name for themselves and then their name will become big like what happen to Shakur Stevenson.

Maybe careful match making by this promotional company, but everything lies on how he project himself inside the right and how he fights.

And for sure if he win this one, and since Top Rank has Devin Haney and Loma, he might be next in line to fight either one of them.

Yeah, he will have that chance if he continues winning his fight, with how this sport works I mean with how promotions
and handlers are making money with each fighter.

The more the fans continue to support and follow each fight that being offered the more we will expect that big fights will be offer.

Let see what will happen to this fight and start discussing Shakur's next journey.


In terms of speculations, we cannot deny that Shakur Stevenson's chance to win is huge enough than losing this fight because Yoshino despite of his decent records, he's not that reliable to face heavy names in boxing as he's not that experienced to be in the international ring.

And as for me, there are only two types of boxers in the world:
1. Boxers who are bound to be a champion
2. Boxers who are bound to be a steppingstone

Which I think, not to underestimate, Yoshino is the 2nd type of boxer where he will pave way for Shakur's name to be great soon. Other than that, this fight will showcase Shakur's debut and respectfully, Bob Arum surely arranged a safer fight for his cow.


I agree with that. Bob Arum know how to pick for his cows wisely and he gave Shakur a competitive opponent on his debut while making sure that his opponent's chances is just slim, I mean we can somehow differentiate the two of them by looking at their records and somehow, we can say that they're both on a different league. We should indeed not forgot that this is a highlight of Shakur and not his opponent, it will be a good warm up for sure for Shakur but that's it.
2026  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | Unified WBC & WBO 122 lbs bout | May 7 on: March 22, 2023, 08:38:47 PM
according to ESPN news

https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/35912571/sources-naoya-inoue-injured-bout-vs-stephen-fulton-ppd

the injury is not serious, but even espn is writing this based on sources, they didn't have information from Naoya Inoue's team from Naoya Inoue's real state, all they say is that he suffered injury, or the team is still doing tests to determine to what extent the injury can be serious or mild and for that reason the team prefers to just say that he suffered an injury or else Naoya Inoue's team already knows that the injury is serious and that Naoya Inoue may have to stay one good time to recover and the fight will have to take a long time to happen, but in order not to create disappointment in the fans they are hiding the truth

because from the moment they talk about postponing it for an indefinite period, it means that there is not even a forecast for the improvement of the injury for him to return to training and the fight can be held, in my opinion, Naoya Inoue may have suffered an injury that will leave a good time to recover, so we won't see his fight against Naoya Inoue anytime soon, in the ESPN article they talked about that they could fight again in the Japanese

The fight, which was set to be streamed on ESPN+ stateside, is being rescheduled for the summer in Japan, sources said.

when the press guys don't mention the source of the news it means that Naoya Inoue's team still doesn't want everyone to know what's really going on, so I don't think they'll reschedule it for the summer, it might take a lot longer to see this fight happen

Let's just be positive folks, I believe they've got enough reasons for not disclosing Inoue's condition for the time being but after the tests is done, I believe they will have their own statement whether this fight will be postponed or worse, cancelled. As of now, what we know is just the basics like Inoue is currently injured, no news how bad it is or if it's just a minor. Hopefully, it's not that serious so that even if it will be postponed, it will happened on their new projected date which is in Summer time in Japan.

2028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs John Ryder - May 6th in Mexico on: March 22, 2023, 06:19:18 PM
Long story short - this is going to be a useless fight for Canelo, that only his fans would watch. Real boxing fans are not much interested in this fight, as they expect nothing outstanding from it. Expect pressure from Canelo and a TKO in round 4-6. That is it.
I don't think it will be a useless fight, yes it's a cherry-picked fight but the boxing community will still be interested but not to the point, of buying high prices for ringside or PPV, the media will watch and follow the development, and the actual fight if you're an undisputed champion and on a ring magazine people will still be interested to follow your career.
Who knows Ryder can offer something and give Canelo a tough fight, boxing fans want action regardless of who's fighting. and boxing fans will watch boxing as long as it's popular boxers regardless of who they are fighting.

Then I will ask a bit differently, if there will be two huge boxing fights running simultaneously or Canelo vs Ryder fight will be running parallel the sports/team you are fan of, will you rather watch Canelo vs Ryder fight or other sports event? Personally, I would watch something other, and next day morning just google for result.

Or lets discuss what this fight will give Canelo despite even more money? He wont be getting any new belt, he wont advance in the rating, a victory over Ryder wont open a gate for a new opponent. Imho this fight is only needed for him to perform in Mexico and be 1000% sure to win. That is it. Easy and useless fight.

I'm both a Canerlo and a boxing fan I want to see good boxing, remember the Ruiz - Joshua fight, it looks like a cherry-picked fight but it turn out not to be and turn out to be a great boxing match if boxing fans just shrug off this fight and call it another guaranteed win for Joshua then they've just missed a very good fight, how about the Tyson - Douglas fight it looks like a walk in a park but boxing fans still watch it so they are treated for the biggest upset, we boxing fans loves good boxing so boxing fans will watch it because they love good and high-level
boxing, this could be a walk in the park for Canelo but we will still see good boxing and that's a good reason to watch it.
I think it will be a good fight as we all know that both higher are good in terms of fighting as we saw their previous fights it's look like we can see a very close fight and even though some user are favored Canelo alvarez cause without a doubt canelo is a strong fighter and have a very good fighting skills that he can adjust his techniques in order to win the fight. But for sure John ryder will be fight and prove to us that he can beat canelo.

Users as well as bettors are favoring Canelo because based on speculations, Canelo got more facts and already proved what he can do inside the ring while for John Ryder, he is still on the process of making his own name and carved it in the industry. This will be his biggest opportunity because he is fighting to be a champion and will acquire all four belts of Canelo, but before that, he should prove himself that he's worthy. People would want to see this Ryder perform and that includes me, he's an interim champion, so I expect a good fight from him.
2029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: March 22, 2023, 05:53:28 PM
I just read that Tristan Thompson has a work out with the Lakers this week. I guess he wasn’t kidding when he was talking about getting the band back together. It’s nice to see that he didn’t let Kyrie joining Dallas stop him from trying to join LeBron for another ring chase. I’m not sure if he can still play at a championship level but I think he’d be a good pickup at the price.

As far as I know, Thompson hasn't played in the league for a year now, and his stats last season were pretty mediocre, as he averaged just 6 points and 5.1 rebounds per game. In other words, I wouldn't expect the Lakers to offer him a contract after this workout, as he's unlikely to be useful for them on the court. Besides, they already have Davis and a few other big guys who play the same position as Thompson.

Yeah but this is right in the Lakers playback.  They always do this and offers dudes like this a contract lol.  It's last second sc4ambling and hoping a prayer is answered.  Even if he was still decent this won't move the needle for them.  Gotta give it to them they never stop trying these reclamation projects though.

But the Lakers should know that this kind of gamble is much more risky than the advantage it can get, we all know that the Lakers doctor is already prohibiting Davis to play a back-to-back game but that's still situational as there as some games that they badly need his help but getting someone who is not that reliable will be a liability to the team.

Later on, the Lakers will face the Suns on their own homecourt at LA and they might be having a slight advantage because Deandre Ayton won't be joining the team for the said game as well as Kevin Durant, as well know that he's not yet fit to play the games. But, the Lakers should be sure and play it safe because they needed this win to lift their team from the current standing which is #11 and a win in this game will definitely put the team at the #7 or #8 spot.
2030  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: March 21, 2023, 07:06:35 PM

I just watched 2 videos stating the reasons why Davis can beat Garcia and vice versa. Will just share it here.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruzT-Cp-9PY - Why Davis will beat Garcia
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17j5CEMSq5A - Why Garcia will beat Davis

I mean before I watched the video, like what others are thinking here, I'm also leaning to the fact that Davis will win on this one because of how good he is in the ring. Add also the fact that he's been with Mayweather for a decade so they are kind of the same. Now that I watched both, I find myself on a state where I'm thinking again who will win on this one.

It's hard to pick especially both of them are rising stars. Many are waiting for this match to happen. Since we will not see Beterbiev vs. Bivol this year (probably), this will be a candidate for the fight of the year. So excited as well for this fight.
Both videos have a good analysis of how both fighters measure up to their past opponents and their advantages in their previous wins but I always believe in what Mike Tyson says about plans and advantages in actual fights, and that is
Quote
You have a plan until you get hit in the face.
everybody boxer has a plan on how to beat his opponent, but everything changes when you get hit in the face.
What I'm sure of is both fighters will bait each other to land his best punch so he can give his best shot, it is about landing the best shot I don't think anyone of them is training to last the 12 rounds, they are training to get their best shot at the right spot.

I believe on what Mike Tyson said, as he was stating such fact based on his experience.
True, every camp has their planned strategies but once inside the ring, most of those plans also go outside the ring.
As for this fight, the bookies are looking at Davis winning by KO/TKO over Garcia.
This will be a good challenge for both boxers, as they want to get ahead of their boxing careers.
Both have still long years to be in this sports given their age right now, so we may possibly see an explosive fight here, hoping that both won't follow the techniques of Mayweather.
Yeah, it's better to hear from boxers who have been there, done that, like Mike Tyson.

For sure he has talk to this young boxers in the last couple of years, and maybe watching their fights. So he has a good gauge as how and who is going to win. But the most important thing is that they will give the fans a good fight, a war so that they can live with the hype. Still very dangerous fight for Tank, although he is the favorite but Ryan has also the speed and power to lay him on the floor if he get caught.

Not just Tank though because both of them are putting their careers on the line and only one of them will be smiling at the end of the day because they brought the W in their favor, I'm stating these scenario because I believe a fight like this won't end in a draw, most unlikely to happen. Regarding Mike Tyson's words, it's indeed true that everything will change if you taste that powerful fist and surely, both boxers will be lucky enough if they can just taste it without kissing the canvass afterwards.

You have to build your own farm and grow your own crops, thats how I see it, complaining will not work because everyone needs to survive.

The better term here is the skilled get the money and the country that has more influence will always prosper than others. It might suck to live in a country that has a poor economy, low natural resources to sell and poor living conditions. But it is upon the individual to move on from that, earn a living and strive to reach a better living condition.

More money in circulation does not solve the problem, that increases the inflation. But how much a person is able to work and earn, that differs.

Right, it's indeed much better for us to grow our needs especially for daily survival and in that way, we can avoid buying products that are already becoming expensive because of the inflation. I mean, we surely cannot block the government from printing more money because aside from it's inevitable especially on our side, we should also learn what are the reasons why are they printing more money.

And if we cannot bear the current situation of our own country, then probably it's much better for us to live in another country which got better conditions. There's a saying that goes, "it's not our fault if we're born poor but it will be our fault if we will die poor"

Warriors ML @2.50 vs Grizzlies

Last na to, kung talo pa rin yong Warriors dito ay hindi na talaga ako pupusta sa kanila.

Ang alat talaga kabayan, talo ulit Warriors kala ko nung nag run nung 3rd quarter eh tuloy tuloy na un pala nganga pagdating sa final quarter hindi masyadong pumutok yung splash bro pagod na ata yung warriors puro talo sa labas ng home court nila. Medyo iwas na muna siguro talaga sa team na to, kung sakaling makalusot na sila sa next round baka dun ko na ulit simulan mag basa basa ng chances nilang manalo.

oo nga kabayan, bad shot talaga tong Warriors pagdating sa road games kaya iwas muna ako sa kanila kahit na maglalaro pa sila sa homecourt nila. Tempting kasi yong odds para sa kanila ehh kaya kinagat ko na, wala naman kasi si Morant sa Grizzlies sa ngayon kaya yon talo pa rin.

Pagod na nga siguro yong Splash Bros kasi 30 points lang ang nagawa ng dalawa kahit na babad naman sila o di kaya ay unti-unting kumukupas na yong galing ng dalawa dala na siguro sa edad.

Stop muna ako sa aking hula-lysis, sasabay nalang muna ako sa mga magagaling dito bukas.

Sabagay pero mas need nila maka secure ng mga panalo ngayon kasi magulo pa rin yung standing sa Westside, baka pag puro talo eh maeliminate sila at hindi makaakyat sa playoff number 7 sila sa ngayon pero dikit lang halos ung mga kasunod nila kaya hindi parin secure ung spot nila.

Tignan ko bukas kung maganda yung spread sa live kalaban nila ang Rockets, baka naman medyo swrtehin na at ma cover naman yung handicap.

Wag na muna tayong umasa kabayan hehe. Ibig ko sabihin ay mas malakas naman talaga ang chance ng Warriors na manalo kompara sa Rockets kung tutuusin, kaya lang yun din yung nangayari sa kanila nitong mga huli. Yung tipong laro na kaya naman talaga nila kung titingnan ng maigi, pero pagkalaunan na ay hirap na sila kumbaga pangit ang consistency nila ngayon lalo na at on the road parin.

Actually, I'm thinking that as the fight approaches, the odds might change, so the opportunity is slowly decreasing.

That's possible, but it's unlikely to happen, dude. Bookies calculate the possibility of outcomes before setting the odds. Maybe Inoue is just too hyped, which is why we thought the odds were surprising, as we were expecting lower odds. But we forgot that Inoue is the challenger, and it's his first fight after moving up, so there's still some uncertainty about him beating the champ.

Anyway, we can make our own speculations, and that will make the fight more interesting because lots of people are talking about it.

It might be true or might be not, that depends. These sports bookies will always have the power to adjust the odds on their favor and let's just accept that they are always one step ahead of us especially if they see that most of the bettors are rooting for the underdog or the favorites. As I said, it depends, so let's see because there is still a lot of time before this fight will commence.
2034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: March 20, 2023, 01:35:30 PM
Yes, and again, one interesting numbers: Jokic didn't make a triple double, he is shy of 2 assists. And when we see this stats, it make us think that they could be in trouble if he can't make a triple double, also the scoring output though, he is to be expected to score at least 30 points.
Very though for them, maybe they are not doubting themselves again in the playoff. Last year Jamal is out and then Porter Jr has some extended injuries. But now, this season they are healthy, on top of the standings, but seems to be having problems closing out the regular season. And we might say that they are choking right now, in my opinion.
Well, they are still 4 games above the 2nd seeded Kings, so maybe these is a strategy to them. I mean kind of they will not perform 100% on their remaining games, so that they will still have the energy when playoff comes. If they know that they will retain the 1st spot with a few games remaining, for sure their key players Jokic and Murray will sit in preparation for the upcoming playoffs.
Currently, they lost 5 of their last 6 games and the only win that they got in that 6 game span was against the Pistons. They only have 11 games remaining, and it's a bit tough at least because on that 11 games, 7 of them are against teams above .500 (Warriors, Suns, Sixers, Bucks, Nets, Kings). TBH, I'm a bit worried on how the Nuggets are performing on their last games, but if they will manage to win majority of the remaining 11 games then I still think that they will retain that top spot in the West.

I understand that the Nuggets have been very inconsistent, actually very poor in terms of performance. But they are still at the top. The problem is as you said they have a lot of hard opponents going forward. It is going to be really hard for them to win in the next 11 matches because we have to keep in mind that the current form of the team is not good. It is actually simple, they will have to perform better. Unless they are going down in the standings.

Well, at least they are now back on track and won their game earlier but I'm still not that convinced that they are already back because what happened earlier is not that impressive to me. They could've got defeated by the Nets if they kept on making some mistakes especially in the last quarter when the Nets suddenly rallied while the Nuggets are somehow complacent because they owned the 1st 3 rounds of the game. Still not good, and for their last 10 games, they will be tested again by the heavy teams of the league.

But since I think Tank will win in this fight, the money line odds is small......
The majority of bettors think that Tank Davis will win. However, we can never be too sure, as Ryan Garcia also has the power to knock out an opponent. In this fight, one punch can change the complexion of the game. So even if Garcia is an underdog now, once he is ahead in the fight, he might be able to knock out a KO artist like Davis.

I'm so excited to watch this highly anticipated fight. It's less than 2 months away, so it's coming up very soon.

The first game between SMB and Converge is currently ongoing, and SMB is currently leading. Unfortunately, I am unable to watch the game as there are no available live streams on Facebook. Thus, my only option is to monitor the game through the box score as my basis for live betting. I keep refreshing my search in the hopes of finding a live stream before the game ends.
Not for long, because Converge won the 2nd quarter. As a result, they won the first half. Now, we are in the 2nd half, where SMB is usually good. They have to continue attacking the paint, as that's their strength. Maybe they will play better defense, resulting in a low-scoring game.  Grin

Sa pagkakatanda ko, tatlong sunod na talo na tong Nuggets at sa kamay pa ng mga teams na hindi masyadong malalakas. Spurs at Nets amd unang tumalo sa kanila at kahapon ay Raptors naman, mukhang may problema ata sila ahh.
Di lang tatlo kabayan kundi pang apat na nilang talo yung nangyari kahapon sa Raptors homecourt, nauna na yung Bulls na tumalo sa kanila bago ang Spurs at Nets, tapos kahapon pa nga ay dumagdag ng Raptors sa listahan.

Celtics -5.5 @1.95 vs Wolves
Sasabayan ko ito kabayan dahil mas dihamak na kompleto ang core ng Celtics compared sa Timberwolves at questionable pa si Rudy Gobert mamaya, kabahan kana Edwards Grin di biro lang hehehe.

Dagdag ko lang ang Lakers -2.5 kabayan. Wala si Anthony Davis sa laro na ito pero ganun paman, di parin sila dapat matalo dito dahil nga ay naghahabol pa sila sa standings nila at lalong-lalo na ngayon dahil Rockets lang naman ang kanilang kalaro.

Di pinalad yong Celtics at Lakers natin kabayan, though nanalo yong Celtics pero di nila na-cover yong spread at Talo naman yong Lakers sa Rockets, puro underdog pala nanalo don kung tumaya tayo sa ATS. Di bale, bawi tayo bukas.

Must win to para sa Warriors, kaya naman siguro nila manalo this time against sa Hawks kaya susugal ako sa kanila ngayon kahit against the odds baka kasi puputok yong Steph Curry na naman.

Oo kabayan, di talaga pinahintulutan na ma cover man lang ang spread ng Celtics. Sayang sila lang nanalo pero tayong bettors hindi hahaha, pero oks lang bawi tayo bukas dahil marami-raming games ang inihain ng NBA para sa atin pero ganun padin, salain lang natin para mas may chance tayo.

Pass muna ako dyan sa Warriors kabayan dahil road games pa sila, antayin ko lang na ma break ang lose streak nila saka ako mag umpisang bumato sa line-up nila kahit on the road, pero infairness kabayan ha, may chance talaga ang Warriors kontra Hawks.
(Tip off: Questionable sina K. Looney at Steph Curry habang ruled out naman sina D. Green, A. Igoudala)

Los Angeles Lakers -5 vs Dallas Mavericks
(Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving are out ; AD probable)

He ended up only getting 8 games 6 of which already passed.  So he is eligible to play starting Monday night against Dallas.  Unsure if Memphis will throw him out there.  But make no mistake losing ja means losing money for the NBA, he is one of the new faces and makes the sport entertaining.  They won't push down one of theor cash cows unless it's something really bad.
But it seems to me that the Memphis Grizzlies management is not yet ready to give a warm welcome for Ja Morant, amidst the issue, the Grizzlies are not yet over with it because Ja Morant is the face of the franchise yet he failed to deliver the teams expectation towards him and wasn't professional enough to know what should he do and what's not.
Quote
Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins himself poured some ice-cold water on Ja’s potential comeback. According to the Memphis shot-caller, Morant will NOT be returning to action against the Mavs.
To add even more mystery to this situation, Jenkins also did not indicate when the Grizzlies intend to allow Morant back. The embattled 23-year-old would have already served out his league-mandated eight-game suspension by March 20th, but as it turns out, the team isn’t ready to bring him back just yet.

We know that this is a very big risk for the team. Of course, he is the face of the team. And the team is also losing quite a lot because of not having him available. I am sure that if they could actually play him, they would have. There are some legitimate reasons. Of course, they feel he is not ready. After all, things could turn out for the worst if they let him on the basketball court right now.

I can only assume things. It is also not going to be very clever for anyone to believe what the media says. We all should wait for an official statement.

Everyone deserves a second chance. If the league can accept him again, there's no reason the Grizzlies cannot accept him. He is still young and prone to make mistakes, so let's give him a second chance. Besides, without Ja Morant, the Grizzlies wouldn't be where they are now.


After the cooldown of Ja's issue for sure Memphis will bring him back, with the talent this young star has, it's very possible that the franchise will bring him into action again..

Yeah, everyone deserves a second chance that a mistake will be remembered and will be a learning
experienced to him and will serve as a good warning to each player.

Yes, they will just cool it down and I kind of expecting this situation already that Morant will still face the Grizzlies decision before he goes back to court. That's just for the people so that the Grizzlies image won't be scathed that much because the franchise will face another issue if they will give Morant his seat back, either way, the Grizzlies still needed Morant amidst this issue. Just like Irving when he was under heavy criticism, the Nets doesn't have any liberty to make a choice because they needed Irving.

In this incident, coach Jenkins also said that the entire Grizzlies squad will fly back after every road games and will not spend nights on the road cities to avoid this scenario again.
2039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: March 17, 2023, 02:23:43 PM
If Stephen Fulton loses against Naoya Inoue, it might not be good timing for him because Figueroa won recently vs. Mark Magsayo for the WBC featherweight interim championship. Fulton should win 1 fight in featherweight before he can argue for a challenge against Figueroa.

Has anyone created a thread for Murodjon Akhmadaliev vs. Marlon Tapales already? We should watch this next fight of Inoue's next opponent after Fulton hehehe.
There's no problem if Fulton lose in this fight, many people will not argue if there's a rematch Fulton vs Figueroa because Fulton have beat Figueroa on the last match, it's different if Figueroa was won, a rematch it's needed to see if Fulton win was a fluke or not.
It's quite early to talk whether Fulton and Figueroa will pursue a rematch if Fulton will climb the next weight class, the way I see it, it's bound to happen especially if Figueroa can upset Vargas and be the new WBC champion. For now, let's just focus about this upcoming fight because I don't think it won't be a problem for Fulton if he loses in this bout because a defeat will stain his flawless record and depreciate his value.

AFAIK I don't see anyone creating a thread for Murodjon Akhmadaliev vs. Marlon Tapales, but since Tapales is a Filipino, people might want to watch this match.
Yes and it will take place in April 8 which is odd because there's currently no thread about Murodjon Akhmadaliev vs. Marlon Tapales.

^ With the fight hype like this, they would really want a rematch and Golden Boy wants its space for it. I think no matter who wins they will have a rematch. And If I would read between the lines here. They will deliberately set the fight just enough to make it fun and exciting yet also disappointing to consider a rematch.


Haha, you may have a point but i think deliberately making the fight enough to warrant for a rematch is a hard thing to do and we must not forget that Tank Davis' sentencing will be in May and he may be out for a year or more so the rematch would not happen very soon even if Ryan Garcia win the first.

Have not read thoroughly the rehydration clause but i think Tank Davis is simulating the moves of Canelo Alvarez wherein he controlled his opponent's weight when they face in the ring, not a bad move but i think a coward act hehe.

I just think that Davis doesn't want to give any advantage to Garcia simply as that, so he inserted the rehydration clause to make Garcia uncomfortable and indeed if he has problems making the 136 lbs and what more if he wants to rehydrate after the weigh in.

Not sure who is Garcia's nutritionist, but she/he has a lot of things in the plate to ensure Garcia will not have an problem during the weigh in and rehydrate himself just 10 lbs before the fight.
Well, apart from that, a rematch is highly unlikely to happen considering Tank's situation as he has an awaiting sentencing a month after the fight. That said, they will settle this fight once and for all because even if there will a hype, a rematch just cannot be done as soon as possible because of the stated scenario and then, I think there's no rematch clause in this fight.

Hopefully, whoever he or she is, it will be a big task for Ryan's nutritionist because this kind of clause is rare and then it's evident that Ryan is not perfectly suitable at 135 that is why a catchweight bout has been made.
