Really surprised that book landed #1 over those other people. Some people can land in other categories like Luka and steph over in pg spot, Tatum as a sf. But if they are all lined up together under the sg spot I think I'm taking 4 or 5 guys before I take book.
For me Booker is one of the most overrated players in the league actually. Seeing him on top of all these players seems a little off. Also looking at the roster now, playing with KD and Beal, this will mean less shots for him as well. Anyway, most of these lists made in the preseason are garbage anyway. Somebody has too much time creating this stuff so people can discuss about it. In this case, it's another strange one. I’m not a big Booker fan either but he can definitely shoot. I don’t think he’a a top tier player but I think he’ll be leading the Suns this year. KD might be the best player but it’s Booker’s team they all came to play for so I think they’ll show him the respect he deserves and let him lead the team in shots. I’m not a big fan though. So nice to see Ben Simmons balling out in the preseason. I agree book is gonna get his looks this year. I'm shocked if this is a true eye test from all the NBA gms. I mean they are tuned into pretty much every player since they have to be so I wonder while the fans certainly wouldn't have these rankings the way they are what they see. Book is a top player for sure, Suns will have an interesting year so maybe he starts climbing those charts just don't see him there yet. I’ve watched Booker play a lot as I’ve lived in Phoenix his entire career. From my point of view, Booker is one of those guys that destroys average talent day in and day out. He can average 30 if he wants to. The problem with him is that you put him up against good players like Luka Doncic, and he fails to live up to what you’d expect. |

Cross addictions can be bad, but they can also be good. You just need to find the negative things in your life and remove them while replacing them with positive things. People do this all the time in order to better themselves while ridding themselves of nasty habits. I think it can be a very healthy way to do things.

If satoshi were still around and publicly confirmed, he would be an attack vector for Bitcoin. His entire life would be dissected and any political affiliations or personal opinions would be used to discredit Bitcoin and try to splinter the community. Him being gone was the best thing that ever happened to Bitcoin and I think had he not disappeared, Bitcoin would not be as successful as it is.

There’s a good game on tv tonight as the Los Angeles Lakers take on the Golden State Warriors on ESPN 2. I doubt it will be too competitive a game but we’ll probably get a quarter or two of play from the big names. This is probably one of the better matchups this preseason and a good one to watch before the season kicks off.

The Suns looked pretty dominant in their win over the Portland Trailblazers. Ayton looked good early with a couple of big plays and a monster dunk. The Suns just have a whole lot of shooting talent that makes it difficult for anyone to match up against them. I think they’re going to be one of the best shooting teams in NBA history this year.

I voted sideways below $28K. I think we’re in an accumulation period and may see some dips along the way. The time to accumulate at the bottom is nearing an end though. I think by January the market will be in a clear uptrend that likely won’t end until we hit a peak above the previous all time high. Be a buyer now and for the next several months…

It might be a strategy to lose if you’re playing a lot of different games without taking the time to really learn them, but it’s also the way that you learn games. There’s nothing wrong with trying a lot of different games to see which ones you enjoy playing versus games you aren’t interested in. Just don’t bet more than you can afford to lose.

If you’re enjoying yourself and you have the time there isn’t much of a downside in playing more so long as you aren’t losing money that makes a difference to you. If that’s the case, you could always bet lower amounts so that you can still get the enjoyment of playing without feeling like you did something wrong if you lose a lot.

We should be able to get a look at Giannis and Damian Lillard together for the first time this weekend as the Milwaukee Bucks face off against the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. I’m not sure what I’ll have to do to see some of this game but I’ll be trying. I’m sure they won’t get many minutes, but we’re certain to get a glimpse at what they can do.

It is exciting to think we’re getting so close to the next halving. While it is likely that we’ll be seeing an upward swing in price leading up to the halving, it’s important to also remember that the major price peaks after the halving usually don’t take place for another 18 months, so don’t expect a massive bubble around halving time.

Football is great and all, but why can we only bet on the game when it’s clear that all people really care about is how many time the camera is going to show Taylor Swift, how many times the commentators are going to mention Taylor Swift, and when Taylor Swift will be leaving the game? I mean, Taylor Swift…

These coins will probably be a great way for folks who don’t want to deal with software or trusting exchanges but want to get their hands on some Bitcoin to hold. I imagine during the next bull run these could get peeled and still have massive profits. For anyone with some USD saved that has wanted a Casascius coin but didn’t want to trust members of this community, this is the best opportunity you will probably ever get. As for OTOH, I suspect at some point you get enough wealth that owning things like this is more of a pain in the ass than anything else.

Looks like we are seeing a plunge in price. A bit delayed in my opinion but I guess people were unsure how to react to the latest war situation. Looking at the charts it does seem like there should be one more massive drop before the rocket launches to the moon, so if I were a trader I’d be watching for a big buying opportunity and getting ready to go all in.

I don’t know who at ESPN is doing their NBA rankings and predictions but I wish I could bet against them. After the horrible take on the Bucks upcoming season, they’re now saying that Zion Williamson is the 57th best player in the NBA. I could maybe see calling him the 20th, but 57th? If he plays in even 50 games this year he’ll likely be an MVP candidate…
Well I mean what do you expect. I'm sure it's no surprise to you that ESPN has been going down hill for decades now. Remember when SportsCenter used to be this great show we all look forward to that actually just gave out sports news? Now we have to listen to clowns like Kendrick Perkins and Stephan A Smith babble about utter nonsense. Honestly I stopped watching ESPN years ago, I can't take them seriously. That’s fair. I remember as a teenager I probably watched sportscenter 2 or 3 times a day. Now I honestly couldn’t tell you the last time I saw it. I do still respect their posts on social media, but you’re right that ESPN has been following the same go broke trend as the rest of Disney’s properties. I just watch YouTube game highlight recaps now. |

Gavin made a mistake. He has come out several times in the years since that mistake and stated that he does NOT believe Craig Wright is satoshi but for some reason people just keep pointing out his mistake and making him out to be a villain for it. It’s really weird to watch. Without Gavin, Bitcoin wouldn’t have been as successful as early on as it was. He’s a legend and should really be acknowledged as such.

In my opinion, stable coins are different from cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin or altcoins, an unchanging value is of course different from the concept of decentralization which is always fluctuating, and the issue of stable coins whether based on real money is of course something that worries us because it will make people blame cryptocurrencies if problems occur .
All stablecoins have the same task - to minimize the risks associated with the volatility of cryptocurrencies. The cryptocurrency world, which has been predicted to collapse so many times, is growing and developing. Stablecoins are an attempt to find a compromise between the traditional financial system and the cryptocurrency market, without opposing them, with the goal of their harmonious merger. And it's a pretty good try. If you think about it, stablecoins are basically just private entities printing dollars. This is why I don’t think the government will allow them to continue much longer. The only end results I see for stablecoins is either they lose their peg and crash or they get shut down by regulators. There is no scenario they continue on in harmony long term. |

I think we might see a Tommy Fury win over KSI and a Logan Paul win over Dillon Danis. Might have to bet the parlay on that one. I think if Tommy Fury held up to Jake Paul then he’ll beat KSI. I also don’t think Dillon Danis can box and if he shows up (which I sort of don’t think he’ll complete the fight without being disqualified somehow) I think Logan will end up winning by decision.

I became curious for sometime now about dog racing as I have not seen it here or anything relates to it here or if I am wrong you can correct me and direct me to the thread or casino that offers such betting option for gamblers. I first saw this game in a movie where dog race was the major character or action of the movie and since then I picked interest in it but I barely see live games for it and casino i think do not have such option and if they do, they should indicate here so I can visit their casino for games. I think this aspect of gaming is overlooked and possibly an asset to casino if they give it a try.
I think it was discussed before, but not sure if it get traction here or if it is listed on some crypto based casinos. Not sure though if this is going to be an asset because it is not well known sports. And I guess just like cockfighting, there could be some groups that are going to protest as they could used the animal cruelty and it might not look good for the casinos. Maybe locally, in some countries this is legal, but in US, I know that majority states considered it illegal already. And with that, I don't see crypto base casinos going to include it as much as they like because of the potential backlash. I actually thought dog racing was more legal than horse racing so I’m surprised it isn’t common with online betting. My guess is because it is just not as popular a sport so the participants are virtually unknown. In my area there are large dog betting tracks and growing up you’d always see events at fairs and things. |

Given how things are shaping up, it seems like there are two possible futures for Bitcoin in 2023-2025. Either the world enters a bad recession and everyone is selling assets like 2008 causing Bitcoin to enter a downward feedback loop with miners going bankrupt and the price collapsing at unseen rates, or we continue to see what we’ve always seen, the price rises significantly over the next 24 months, and Bitcoin continues it’s growth story. I personally think the odds are better we’ve got one last pump on the way.
