It seems like Warriors are almost finishing up their series as they got 3-0 ahead last night. It was an unexpected result to me because I expected to see a much more solid Mavericks in this one. But they were still not good enough defensively. Doncic - Brunson - Dinwiddie trio were great once again but they still couldn't make it. And this result might have dropped their morale quite much now. After having an enormous advantage like this, I wouldn't expect much from Mavericks. Warriors should be able to finish the series by 4-2 at worst.
Yeah, that was already 3-0 and no team has ever come back from 3-0 deficit, so for sure it's not gonna last more than 5 games. Mavericks are still not adjusting, they are still playing using Luka as their heavy lifter, and we know that kind of basketball will never be effective against the Warriors who played teamwork basketball.

I think they have adjusted already, but it seems that whatever strategy coach Kidd does, the Warriors has always a counter maybe it's because they have the experienced already in this kind of situation.

Luka is doing everything he can, but the Warriors defense is really locking the rest of the team that's why he doesn't have that support specially coming from Dorian Smith and Bullock. In the Suns series, specially in the last 2 games, these two can't missed, but against the Warriors their offense is non-existent.

I am looking forward to a 2-2 standing after this fourth game. I'm sure the Celtics will get back on Miami. This early, Jason Tatum is already feeling hot and pumped up and will definitely add a lot more of scoring power to the Celtics. With 20 points just in the second quarter and the team leading so far by 25 points, this is going to be an exciting eastern conference finals. They only need to maintain a comfortable lead and continue to deny Miami of offensive rebounds.

Yes, it's a different Jayson Tatum we are witnessing this game, although he is nursing that shoulder, he still play and provided good offense to the team right now. So it's going to be a very difficult task for the Heat to even make the score close or cut the lead to manageable less than double digit because of the way the Celtics are shooting in this game.
2043  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Eastern Conference Finals (Heat vs Celtics) on: May 22, 2022, 06:37:19 AM
In an hour, the third game of the series is starting, Celtics - Heat. I really admired Celtics' performance in the last game. They showed a huge defensive and offensive performance at the same time which was a big help for destroying Heat comfortably. I assume that Heat would play better this time but it might still not enough for them to win. Because I think Celtics are closer to a victory once again. Maybe this would be by a much smaller margin but they would still make a comeback in the series and be 2-1 ahead.

Nah, Heat beat them in their own homecourt, although both stars are out, Tatum and Butler because of injuries so they cancel each other. But I guess the Heat has much more depth as they were able to have someone step up the plate in Bam Adebayo to make a 2-1 lead for them. But this series is still far from over, a win by Celtics next game could even up the score again. So it's going to be game to game basis and most likely this could be a 7 game series again.

^^ There's no "Warrior like comeback", from Boston. The Heat manages to hold them off and win the 4th quarter with good defense.

What a solid game from Bam, tonight, he leads the Heat with 31 points and 10 rebounds. Kyle Lowry played limited minutes but it was enough to help the Heat as well with 11. Brown taking over with the absence of Tatum with 40 big points but it wasn't enough.
2045  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins that have most chances to come out strong after bear market finished on: May 22, 2022, 12:06:59 AM
Most of these coin I assume gonna be having the same potential since they are already so undervalued anyway. regardless I think if it's from your list, definitely solana since its popularity has been growing and its community is also already huge, I think quite some projects also switching over from terra luna to solana, and also the NFT market of solana has been growing significantly.
Other than that it's the apecoin, for the simple fact that it hasn't finished its bullish cycle and already got hit hard by the current bearish, maybe the next bullrun it's gonna achieve new ATH again but of course it's just my 2 cents.

We need to look for the foundation of these alts, but SOL, MATIC, I believe has good chance.
They have good use case and some projects are already utilizing it.
Several exchanges are already integrating these networks so it means, there's demand that they are seeing here.
So after this bear market, I believe, they can improve their value and they are not the usual short-lived projects.

Yeah, I also voted for those 2 coins. I mean it has a good community to begin with and the devs and the people behind are very conscious to every suggestions and comments.

And as you have said, they have been slowly starting to be integrated to other other networks, so that is a big boost already and a blue print that it could remain in the crypto sphere and survived this bear market.
2046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: May 21, 2022, 06:27:27 AM
3rd quarter Warriors are back! Down 17 at the start of the 3rd quarter and somehow they brought it down to just 2 by the end of 3rd. Mavs changed the way they played the first half, expecting Warriors to have found the answers but have gotten it very wrong. They are trying to go through Looney and that's not working at all. 4th quarter up next. Can Mavs take a game off of Warriors at the Chase center?
As I was expecting, that live by the three die by the three approach to the game backfired in the third quarter. Nobody is attacking other than Luka. Mavs is even lucky that Curry is misfiring but he's done well distributing the ball. To think that they managed to close the gap to just two points while Draymond is sitting the rest of the third quarter with three points.

And Draymond fouling it with more than 2 minutes, useless foul but I guess he knows his team are going to win anyway.

Just a collapse for the Dallas, it was only Luka who are scoring, maybe except for Brunson but it was not enough as the Warriors won the game and taking a 2-0 advantage. It just shows that Warriors are a 3rd quarter team, we've seen them do this in the regular games and won. The experience is too much for the Mavs to handle. Luka is doing everything but it was not enough.
2047  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin fall below $30k on: May 21, 2022, 01:26:22 AM
I'm sure the market that is still red until now will end soon, although many find similarities with a 4 -year trend, namely the price will drop when it previously reached ATH but if you see a very large transaction volume I am sure the market will rise again and soon.
The liquidity is low right now compared to what it used to be, which means that we need to focus a bit more towards the liquidity part of it and that way we could be understanding when the market will get better. You need to also realize the difference between volume and liquidity as well because there is a huge difference.

Volume means the transactions, and it is still around 30 billion according to CMC, and it was like that when we were 40k+ as well and that was a great deal, today it is still around 30 billion and we should be focusing a bit more on that. This is why I believe that liquidity means a lot, volume doesn't mean that much.

Regardless though, for me volume is as much as important as liquidity.

We can see obviously if we are still in the range of volumes in the past and it could signal whether we are in the bearish or bullish cycle.

So far though, the volume is very low, an indication that we are indeed in the bear cycle. And if my chance it increases then it will coincide with a good recovery at least we can felt a chance of 1%-5% in the price if volume increases.
2048  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Who’s itching to buy? on: May 21, 2022, 12:54:55 AM
Buying after a huge crashed from the All time high price is a boss move, however, it could dip even more but of course we're not sure. Buying during this kind of season would test your patience, because it might take years again before the market starts to rise again. So we have to be careful on what we are going to do for our funds not to go in vain just in case the coin that we bought will be delisted, something like that, just like what happened to LUNA.
I think should include in our watctlist those projects that were built in a bear market, such as eth, maker and so on
I think that the people who have enough money to do it are thinking at the moment of buying and then doing Hodl, if it were in my hands to buy it I would do it without thinking about BTC, then as a second option I would do it for ETH and then for Monero, to my ETH and MONERO are the currencies with the highest survival capacity, it is for this reason that without a doubt my first option to buy would be the BTC, I would not mind if after I bought it it went down a little more, I would save and have to wait as long as be necessary.

Given the options? I would rather just buy BTC and ETH, but that's just me.
But I do agree that this is the perfect buying opportunity for those who have enough money because the price is at a discount, BTC below $30k? that's damn good price already. And all you will do is buy a ton and then let it sit in your hardware wallet (recommended if you are buying a ton), protect your private keys and come back in the next 2 years. So I guess everyone is itchy to buy at this point but not everyone can buy, that's the dilemma.
2049  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sideways huh! on: May 20, 2022, 09:01:39 AM
I think even at bullish market, the sideway pattern is present, meaning there will be certain times that the market is very sluggish, maybe brought by several factors that's. And this could last for days or even weeks until such break out occurs. Unfortunately, we are in bearish trend now, most likely the break out could still be going South. But yeah, if you can find time to scalp and make money why not?
2050  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: May 20, 2022, 08:25:28 AM
Al Horford went 4-4 from the field and Marcus Smart nearly had a triple double. The Celtics were definitely glad to have them back in the lineup. Their defense kept everyone except for Jimmy Butler below 15 points. The 25 point loss makes the game seem closer than it was. The Heat are in a little trouble now. They need to prove game 1 wasn’t a fluke and they can compete against a full Celtics team or else this is going to be the end of their season in 3 more games. They play each other again on Saturday.
We can see the difference of Smart and Horford in the court and both of them not in the court.
They are a big boost of morale and to the team and because of that, the performance of all members will automatically level up.

An almost triple-double for Smart and 10 points for Horford, with 6 players in double figures. What really made the Celtics steal in Game 2 is like what they did in Bucks in Game 7. Three point shots. Tonight, they shot 20/40 with 50% FG. That's high already. I think I'll agree with what you said that the Heat are in a bit of trouble right now. They need to adjust their defense in the next 2 games and at least defend the three point area because that is the Celtics' key to victory. Butler scored only 29 points tonight after scoring 41 points in Game 1. Did anybody see Smart breaking the ankles of Strus? Cheesy

I agree, Smart had the biggest impact in this game as he lock in Butler and game them the dose of their own medicine in the first quarter. Yeah, sure Butler has 29 points, but it was already a lost game in the 3rd quarter unlike in game 1 wherein they made a comeback. It was a different Celtics team when their line up is complete.

You mean this ankle breaker  Grin ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EY9MnTZW9YU
2051  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mark Magsayo vs Rey Vargas WBC Featherweight Title (July 9) on: May 20, 2022, 08:03:44 AM
Hopefully he would do that, but it's still too early to tell, he has to convince us first and that is by winning this fight without a controversy. A KO would silent people who still have doubted his capacity, so he has to go for that.
Only in boxing fighting mode could prove from the current hard training, I think he will go the extra mile to defend his belt against his challenger Rey, I know that Magsayo has a champion mentality so I'm pretty sure he wins the match for a unanimous victory or even knockout, because his fans really want him to look spectacular in a prestigious boxing match.
Well, if he could find a space to pull a knockout victory then he should do it because as I said, that alone will be the best way to silent the people who doubts his capacity especially now that he needed some wins to continue in the industry and have much more great fight with good pay.

Even if it's a unanimous or split decision would be fine, the thing is he should be hailed as victorious here and before he can have that, he should go for a mile to make sure his win.

We always wanted to see a great fight that will end up in a knock out and hopefully it will be Magsayo who will accomplished it here.

Rey Vargas is a good fighter and others think that he will be the favorite. So imagine if an underdog Magsayo won by a spectacular one punch knock out. Fight fans for sure will remember his name and would gain stature as the premier fighter in this division.

When we expect a knockout, then most likely Magsayo will win because that's his specialty as a boxer. However, if the fight will go to distant, there's a possibility that Magsayo will lose because of his boxing style which is not so accurate, he would easily get tired in the end.

Hopefully, Magsayo will cover that too, he would definitely go for a knock out, but if it not present then he should have purse for another plan to win, maybe it will go to the judges score card.

So he and his team should anticipate any scenario that the fight will go to distance. And with that, train his stamina, he that he will not gas out specially in most important rounds.

I did go on the under score, but it seems that the Celtics is shooting high percentage already. 9 out of 11 in the three point area, leading by 11 points in the first quarter.

I'll probably do some live betting after the second half, will wait and see how the Miami will settle down. Maybe this will be a repeat of the first game wherein they made a huge rally to win big.
2053  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 19, 2022, 06:56:10 AM
I would say easy game for the Warriors tonight:



Not only did they limit Luka in the first game, but they put a defensive gem on their players. Brunson and Dinwiddie seems to can't find their grove because of the tight defense. While GSW starters all scored in double dights.

Surprisingly Thailand has pulled away for the second spot against PH in the gold standing.

While PH, and SG are tied with 37 golds apiece although in total medals, PH is ahead. And then Indonesia with 36 golds. So it will be a close battle for the second spot behind Vietnam.

Kayla Richardson of PH winning Gold in the 100 M women.

2056  Economy / Speculation / Re: Was $25K the bottom? on: May 19, 2022, 01:13:32 AM
I wouldn't go crazy just to expect $20K to come true for last year's $69K post-ATH bitcoin lows. Maybe only numbers can be achieved or maybe not during this year or next year. I wouldn't say no to $20K or lower, but it might be an unexpected period if 2018's history is the benchmark. Anything is possible, the unexpected and it is very possible in the crypto world, but we probably won't hit another $20K for bitcoin lows during this correction. Just my opinion.

If ever we will close the monthly candle above $30,00 this end of May, I am positive that the $25,000 is already the bottom.
It's possible, but let's see what will happen at the end of May.

Just remember though that if we even close the monthly candle at $30k, it doesn't mean that we have reach the bottom already.

We still have the next 6 months and there are a lot of things that can happen along the way that can put more pressures on the price to a downward spiral. So I'm still not feeling confident, I'm still seeing that the price could still go down below $25k and this could be the worst case scenario.
2057  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: could TERRA LUNA go back to $1 dollar? on: May 19, 2022, 12:34:37 AM
$1 can only be possible if Kwon will go with the suggestions given to him by CZ (Binance owner) and other big investors to cut down the supply of luna by burning it. Anything apart from that, won't get Luna to $1. It will only keep Luna's price to be dangling around 0.0005 and below till it diminishes into tiny air.

In the first place why they need billions in circulation though?

Anyhow, I agree with most of the posters here, it will be hard to get back to where it was previously. It they survived this bear market then good for them. But I don't think that investors will likely pour their money on any project that Kwon Do will touch in the future. They have learn their expensive lessons from this person already, and maybe he is one of the most hated crypto personalities right now.
2058  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your NBA Champion this season? on: May 18, 2022, 03:11:24 AM
because Goldenstate Warriors ain't an easy team to bring down especially when they're playing at home.

The same goes for the Phoenix Suns arena where it's one of having the loudest audiences in the league. Phoenix Suns' winning rate in their home arena is over 90% but the Mavericks are able to still play well against their large crowd.

I'm sure Mavericks are already used to playing against the big crowd and they can expect it once they played at the Warriors' homecourt as we know how big the audiences are here and almost a big distraction already to the away team.

I guess every team are using to play on the road, but Dallas though seems to be a road team because they are not affected by the unruly crowd of the Suns fans.

So it's really up to the Warriors here, Dallas has nothing to lose in this series. On the contrary they will gain a lot of experience specially Luka. So it might not be an easy series for the Warriors, but with their experience, maybe they will win against the Mavs.

These few days when I woke up and checked binance my asset dropped significantly, of course this made me confused whether to sell all assets at a loss or wait, even a lot of speculation circulating that the price of bitcoin will drop again below $ 20k, of course this is something this is very worrying and will take a long time to get back up again.
Many people are trying to recover their funds by selling it as early as they could cause they think it's the end again of Bitcoin but it turns out they were being flushed out as they were the panic sellers who makes the market turn in red for a few days. They don't really learn anything since the previous bull run or it's that they were just newbies in this market and maybe the old investors were holding and having their patience to wait for the right time when the market would start to pump again.

Yeah, usually in bear market and flash crashes, the weak hands are going to sell, so there will be a shakeup and what remains are the diamond hands who chooses not to sell because they are thinking long term and on the contrary, would rather buy.

So far this has proven to be the case, price are on the way to recovery and maybe we can see it $32k and above next week.

Spence vs crawford looks like pacquiao vs mayweather way back on early years which the prime of pacquiao that didn't happen not until in 2015 this fight is dubbed as fight of the century. Idk what this fight will be dubbed since both are great and undefeated.

Time is still on the side of Spence and Crawford, they are still in their prime. As compare to Manny and Floyd wherein they kinda on the tail end of their career. They should have fought years prior when Manny is destroying anyone and leaving a destructive tail. Anyhow, I don't think anyone of them is taking that route, they should be facing each other this year as the fight is doable with no one in between like boxing managers because Crawford is a free agent now.
