This is what I am always confused with.
Does a lower-weight champion (Inoue for this example) need to fight a higher seed (Marlon Tapales) in the upper class before he can challenge the champion (let's say Murodjon Akhmadaliev)?

Either:

a) mandated fight ordered by a boxing council
b) promoter's pick/choice

In the case of Inoue, he can go directly with the champions at 122 lbs but most part of the final decision will depend on his promoter, Bob Arum.

However, as far as my current view regarding that is concerned, seems Arum won't put his Japanese cash cow into a title fight yet once moved up.

Who knows though?

It will be the option A, if Inoue will fight Fulton because the latter has the WBO belt in his possession and it will be the option B, if Inoue will fight Murodjon. But as of now, there's no names surfacing in the rumors yet about Inoue's future fight this coming April or May, what we know is that Inoue will have a fight in the said months but it's not yet identified. Who knows which camp they are discussing with.

I don't know about it OP but your post could be a little anti-poor, not anti-poverty. We have to understand thaf oftentimes, poverty is never a choice for them to make but a culmination of circumstances that ultimately lead then to that moment. For me, it's hard to think about investing your money for the near future, when your kids are sick today and you'll have just about enough money to feed your family tomorrow. We oftentimes overlook other people's struggles just because it somehow worked out for us but you gotta admit, sometimes what separates us from them is just sheer dumb luck. Consider that.

I really don't like what the OP is saying, it sounds like he is looking down on the poor, and I agree with you that we are just getting luckier than them, not smarter than them. I wish those who are looking down on the poor to try once in the situation of the poor, I want to see how hard those people will work and how they will invest when there is no money to eat. Conversely, if those poor people were in our position, they could be more successful than we are.

I also wasn’t too keen to share in the opinions of the OP. It almost sounded to me like he was kinda putting the blame of not having any financial education and just generally being poor on the poor folks. And a lot of poor folks work really hard in their respective jobs to make ends meet. If it was all about working hard, then I know a lot of people would be billionaires today. I wouldn’t put all the blame on them for their situation.
While a lot of them may be lazy and hesitant to put in any work to better themselves and their lives, a considerable lot also work hard and try to better themselves and their lives.

Exactly, there are people who really putting everything at the table to find the best way to better their life, we can say that they are really keen on making success as they wanted to have a better future.

Not only for themselves but more on the side of having a financial stability for them and for
the whole family.

I can say that the intention is there, but the access is limited or just like you say, they are just lazy
or not willing to extend their will to find the right way.

If only it's that easy for them, but it's not. OP should try to be more considerate sometimes rather than saying some things that have no sense at all, maybe he should try to put his life into their shoes to have a better understanding in their reality to see how hard their situation is and that not everyone has the privilege to invest in crypto. We all know that cryptocurrencies can really make someone's life more comfortable if it's used cleverly but the point is, how can they start if they can only afford to eat twice or thrice a day.

Celtics vs Bulls might be the best entertaining game of all. Two offensive teams, expecting a high scoring game.

Let's see if Bulls' Zach Lavine will continue his good numbers against the Boston Celtics. It's been notable that Bulls fans are really happy with his recent performance where he joined the Steph Curry 3-point party after establishing 11 3s last game. Although LaVine is playing like that, others want to work him on making defense as purely focusing on offense won't take them always to win. But for me, if he's really not good at that, let them focus on his specialty and trust his teammates to do what's lacking for him. It's a team effort, by the way, to win.

But according to rumors, that doesn't change the fact that LaVine has the chance to still get traded before the trade deadline.

As far as the rumor list is concerned, his name is still hot there and not until the trade deadline ends, we can ruled out that possibility.

They got defeated by the Boston Celtics earlier, but LaVine still got a good stats in the game and managed to put 27 points with rebounds and assists. It's just that the Celtics now are quite dominant leaded by Tatum and Brown, they have been dominating since the season have started which is why they are at the top in the league leading both West and East conference.

Anyway, back to the Chicago Bulls. Is LaVine that hot in the trade talks? Care to share some information.

Sayang yung bet mo kabayan, muntikan na pero di din talaga binigay eh no? Sure na sure yan na mananalo ang Mavs dahil kulang-kulang ang manlalaro ng Pelicans ngayon. Bawi tayo, 2 days din akong di nakapag bet dahil pinagpahinga ko muna sarili ko hehe. Ano, game ulit?

Muntikan na rin yon kabayan pero kinapos din sa huli. Hindi pala naglaro si McCollum sa larong yon, pinagpahinga.

Pahinga rin ako kahapon kasi mukhang bugbog na tayo sa talo ahh pero hindi pa rin tayo susuko hehe, "Winners never quits".

Para sa araw na to try ko muna yong Chicago Bulls kontra Celtics, this time sa underdog ako papanig pero with a handicap.



Nakadalawang muntikan ka na kabayan ah hehe. Pansin ko di sumasabay sayo mga taya mo sa twing sa underdog na with handicap ang ang bet mo, sa ibang game nakataya kaba? Ako sa tatlong binuhusan ko, tanging ang Bucks ML lang nakuha ko laban sa Knicks. Idol talaga sila pag nasa ibang bahay pero pag sa kanila, kakapusin bigla. Ano bawi ulit? Live games muna ako.

PBC is just new to boxing and is less than 10 years of operations but it already destroyed and prevented a lot of big fights. PBC prevented us from seeing the huge AJ vs Wilder clash when they were both undefeated and the winner could've been the first-ever undisputed heavyweight in this 4-belt era. PBC also didn't respond nor sent counter-offers to Bob Arum of Top Rank in order to stage Crawford vs Spence for the welterweight undisputed belts. There are too many potential fights I can mention but these 2 are the biggest and could've been historic fights if PBC is cooperative and not scared and selfish. 

As you mentioned, primarily focused on the business side instead of anything related to legacy. Agree with you.

However, who's the one/s that needs to be blamed strongly for big fights unable to materialize?

It's a sad reality but the boxer themselves is just cooperating with these networks and promoters, because for the obvious reason that they receive benefits and advantages that aren't present if they decided not to be under by any firms.

Well, they don't have that much leverage to make a choice about their career because they won't be reaching anywhere far enough if they will be flying solo without the help of promoters, hence, why they are called promoters in the first place. They are the ones who will get the boxer their fight and if not, will pull some strings to make a fight happen that will help them towards their career. In the end, it will be a blaming game for them if there's a fight that they are avoiding. We just don't know who's afraid, is it the boxer or the promoter.
2246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: January 09, 2023, 05:49:59 PM
It's looking good for the Chicago Bulls and for their fans out there.
3rd a winning streak. Zach LaVine is sizzling hot. Yesterday 41 points were against the 76ers and now a hot 36 points against the Jazz and defeating them in the process. That's a back-to-back game for him and yet there's no trace of exhaustion.
With him playing like this with most of their games, they will go back to a higher seed in speed. Now, they are sitting at the 9th spot but that should not stop there.
Their next stop is against the Boston Celtics on the road, it will be a rough game for them. Offensive duos will clash at TD Garden.

Yep mate, that's what I have predicted that's why I chooses the Bulls to win again against the struggling Jazz team. Remember that there are rumors that he wants to be traded, but we are not sure about it. But with this performance of him and DeRozan, it's hard to stop them if both star players are playing that offensive basketball.

There were anxious moments in the game wherein I thought that they are going to lose specially at the start of the 4th that they are still trailing. But in the last 8 minutes, both of them turn the game over, they made a run and they build a 10 point lead and that was enough to hold off the Jazz late rally.

If both stars will play in the same level the winning chance of the team is better, those trade rumors might cooldown for a while and we
are seeing good performances from Lavine and DeRozan.

Like you said, if they will continue playing like this and those role players who are playing with them will also contribute decently.

They can move back on top and chase for the playoff spot, too early but hopefully they will.

I keep hearing lavine talks to new york but why would the bulls give up on Levine?  I think it's all talk and click bait.  They knicks have 7 first round picks in the next 5 years but lavine's spot as a guard isn't what the Knicks need.  Depending on how obi rebounds from injury, the Knicks need another viable power forward.  Lavine ain't going anywhere.

Nothing is certain as of now because the trade talks are still on going and some are still mere speculations, until the trade deadline arrives where we will definitely find out which team will be participating in the trade and who are they getting, and what are they getting from it. So far, I'm not seeing anything from LaVine's position that will get the Knicks interested, just like what you said, it's not what they needed.

Nets vs NOP - Nets babalik to sa winning column, -3.5 @1.83

Gandang laban nito mamaya ahh, ito lang muna sasabayan ko.

Sana lang maglaro si Zion kasi pag hindi mismatch tong laban na to kung kompleto yong big 3 ng Nets.

Magandang laban talaga kung maglalaro si Zion kasi nandun ung pressure para sa big 3 ng Nets, at yung productions ni Zion medyo mabigat yun pag wala sya mamaya sa game nila, sayang gusto ko din sabayan to kahit ML @1.57 kaya lang nadale ako ng never say die ng Ginebra kala ko madali na nilang matatalo ung kalaban dahil import.

Makikinuod na lang muna ako at bawi na lang sa susunod pag may spare na ulit, good luck na mga kabayan!

Walang Zion at Ingram mga kabayan, na report na sila kahapon palang na din na makakalaro si Zion. Di pa malaman kung kailan ang balik nya kaya siguradong iti-take advantage ito ng mga ibang kupunan sa liga habang di pa buo ang line-up nila. Si McCollum nalang ang natitirang reliable at si Jonas, pero yun nga di na matatansya kung makakapanalo paba.

Pansin ko din sa game kanina na di gaanong ganun kapagod ang Nets Big Three, mahaba-haba naman ang nilaro nila pero di rin gaano ka pressured dahil kumpleto sila at makakapag pahinga din in-between.

Dito ako tumitingin sa injury report: https://www.espn.ph/nba/injuries
Hirap kasi hanapin yung wastong mga tip-off ngayon dahil napapansin ko iba-iba ang label bawat article.

Salamat sa info kabayan, hindi kasi ako updated at nadala na ko nung nakaraan kay Giannis nung hindi sya pinaglaro pero wala naman sa injury list, kaya ngayon talagang napapadalas na sa live game na ko susmasabay ng taya para sure ako kung sino ung nasa loob, mahirap pa rin namang matimpla pero kahit papano may laban laban.

Kanina lumaban ung NOP hanggang sa dulo masyado lang talagang mahusay ung coach ng Nets at sa dulo si KD at Kyrie pa rin yung talagang humawak ng bola para ipanalo ung game.



Wala talaga si Giannis sa injury list sa larong yan kabayan, naalala ko na last minute na sya dineklara ni coach Budenholzer na hindi makakalaro. Sa tingin ko ay kaya naman ni Giannis na makalaro sa game na yan pero parang minabuti nalang na ipagpahinga sya dahil wala din naman si Holiday and Middleton sa larong yan. Minsan ay mas mainam naman talaga na mag bet nalang during sa live games, pero sa sitwasyon ko kasi kabayan ay di ako makaka tyempo sa oras dahil busy din gaano tuwing umaga. Swerte na kung may mahahabol hehe.

Salamat sa link kabayan, napakalaking bagay to para sa akin.

Panalo yong Nets kahapon pero hindi madali yong laro nila kahapon dahil naghahabol sila buti nalang at nagkaroon sila ng big run sa third quarter at pumutok na naman uli si Irving sa huling mga minuto sa fourth quarter. Mataas na talaga kompyansa ng Nets sa ngayon sana lang ay tuloy-tuloy na ito hanggang sa play-offs.

New Orleans Pelicans +9.5 @1.85 vs Mavericks

Tingin ko mananalo yong Mavs pero di gaanong tambak kasi nandoon pa naman si McCollum at Jonas na parehong sanay na wala si Zion sa kanilang lineup.

Walang problema kabayan, sayang din naman kasi kung may iilan tayong di makita sa injury list. Malaking bagay na kaya na malaman muna natin kung sino-sino ang maglalaro at sa link din na yan ay andyan na lahat ng teams, so di na tayo mahihirapan.

Sayang yung bet mo kabayan, muntikan na pero di din talaga binigay eh no? Sure na sure yan na mananalo ang Mavs dahil kulang-kulang ang manlalaro ng Pelicans ngayon. Bawi tayo, 2 days din akong di nakapag bet dahil pinagpahinga ko muna sarili ko hehe. Ano, game ulit?


Pelicans vs Wizards -2
Bucks ML vs Knicks
Lakers +10 vs Nuggets

.......but I'm hoping that Nicholson will play for us to be able to see a fair and entertaining game.

It's not fair if the refs will try to rig the game. I have a feeling that we will see a game 7, so even if the Bay Area does not have an import in game 6, I think they will still be given a chance to win, so game 7 the PBA will make a lot of money. In game 7, it can be expected that there will be a huge number of audience, so most likely the event will be held in the Philippine Arena which has a maximum capacity of  55,000 persons.
source : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippine_Arena

Forget about that conspiracy theory, let them play the game and they should be ready with the miss calls or whatsoever. Because if they will always think that refs are not in their favor, then certainly they will not be able to win because of distraction. Glenn Yang was injured last time, he could be a great contributor to the team, but let's see if he can suit up in game 6 and Nicholson as well.
2249  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Deontay Wilder versus Andy Ruiz Title Eliminator on: January 09, 2023, 09:50:23 AM
Hopefully, this fight will happen ASAP, not be postponed and stuff.
For me, Wilder is still a beast since he only lost to the best of the best! Whereas Ruiz lost to the "bodybuilder," lol.
Don't forget that besides Wilder's one-punch KO power, he also has reach, which can be extremely difficult for Fat Ruiz.
So Wilder will KO Ruiz IMO since he's not going to be pussy like the "bodybuilder."

Looks like the public are seeing this fight will be dominated by Wilder.

As per this article, the opening betting odds are.
https://bettinginsiderjournal.com/boxing/wilder-vs-ruiz-odds/

Quote
Deontay Wilder opens as a -350 betting favorite against Mexican heavyweight Andy Ruiz Jr. +225.

I think I would take the -350 as I don't think Wilder will lose this fight. I know he won't have another shot with Fury, but at least he would dominate other heavyweights like he usually do.

al haymon from pbc ruined a lot of fights

It is not just Al Haymon that ruined many potential fights since boxing became a big sport. But I agree with you. In the first place, Al Haymon created PBC to become a separate organization like the UFC. Its intent was to create its own championship belts too. Many of its fighters are influenced by Floyd Mayweather Jr. which means focusing only on the business aspect rather than building a legacy.

PBC is just new to boxing and is less than 10 years of operations but it already destroyed and prevented a lot of big fights. PBC prevented us from seeing the huge AJ vs Wilder clash when they were both undefeated and the winner could've been the first-ever undisputed heavyweight in this 4-belt era. PBC also didn't respond nor sent counter-offers to Bob Arum of Top Rank in order to stage Crawford vs Spence for the welterweight undisputed belts. There are too many potential fights I can mention but these 2 are the biggest and could've been historic fights if PBC is cooperative and not scared and selfish. 

I think PBC's Al Haymon managed to be one of the biggest promoter in the boxing industry because of his connections and intent to bring the boxer to the top as long as they have skills required. Aside from that, PBC offers good guaranteed money per fight that's why lots of boxers preferred to be in his stable. Spence and Charlo won't be staying with Al Haymon if they don't have any benefits from it.

The problematic season is continuing for Lakers.

They have such an inconsistent form really. Sometimes they start a winning streak which stops sharply all of a sudden. It is a three-game winning streak for now and we will see how long this will go on. It feels like they will finish the regular season on the brink of the playoff area. But I don't know if they would stay inside of it or outside. Because this performance isn't credible enough to be sure of something about their future. Lebron must still be quite frustrated at his team now. Because he is still playing really competitively.
Trade deadline is ending in February. They must do something to make the roster even better.
I mean they are on a winning streak yes, but it isn't sustainable and like you said, after that winning streak, they will go to a losing streak and that's why until now, the Lakers are still at the bottom and currently 4 games below 500.

Trade some of their players and get better players. With their superstars not playing for different reasons, they need a reliable scorer that will still help the team offensively. Some might say Schroeder is that guy and I might agree, but his performance in the bubble always comes to my mind and that only shows that he's kinda inconsistent still. Well, now that their superstars aren't playing, let's see how he will step up alongside Westbrook.
There is no other option now, they have some good players to trade but the problem is almost all the teams in the league have good chemistry with their players, so what the Lakers will be getting back might be banged up players, AD issue with injuries wont get them this far if he will continue to get injured, on and off playing will hurt the rotation, this might be the problem that the Lakers haven't figured out yet, or maybe they are just waiting for a move from other teams, if they make it to the playoffs this year without AD they will just making LeBron retired earlier because he will carry more loads for sure.

Yes, you're right but the team will always be moved and will be willing to cater the Lakers needs if there's a future 1st-round picks on the line as we know that almost every team needed that now. Currently, the Lakers are looking at the Pacers roster, Buddy Hield in particular and I don't think the Pacers will hand Hield that easily if the exchange is not good enough. Either way, we will know it soon as the trade deadline is already approaching.

Referees wearing headset will really raise some suspicion to the public, even if they will have a valid reason for it, people and the respective camps will of course doubt as they don't know what's going on with the headset thing as they don't know what the referees are hearing. Anyway, are they using some kind of headset nowadays? I don't know that, if yes, then that shouldn't be allowed to prevent the referees from clouding their judgement.

If there's a doubt that may develop better not to allow refs to have that kind of headset, we can't tell what they are
hearing or what are the real purpose of those headsets.

It's better to not to have that kind of device while you are in the middle of the fight as doubt may develop if there's a problem
with fair judging.

Best to remove any possible ways to question any judgements.

There is a need for a head set, the count must be sync with the counter and it is provided by the headset.  Aside from that, there might be some crucial instruction that needed to implement such as telling the referee that he is so lapse sided and need more focus in officiating the fight or instructing the referee about the missed call fouls like low blows, elbows etc.  Or have an instruction to check the condition of the boxer and have it checked by the ring side physician when their cut is too deep to continue.

But despite of these numerous needs of the referees to wear some form of headset, people are still not complacent by the fact because they don't know what's going on behind it. It's best give the respective camps some headwears too so that there won't be an anomaly and a suspicion won't be raised because they can also hear what's going on behind these headsets.

2254  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Manny Pacquiao vs. DK Yoo on: January 06, 2023, 06:01:06 PM
More details are emerging on the deal between RIZIN and Manny Pacquiao. He will not be involved in any MMA fights. Pacquiao will stick to boxing and the deal calls for one exhibition match with an unknown opponent sometime in summer.
I think that's not what's on the mind of most fans. What we're thinking is about having a fight with an MMA fighter through boxing and not going to enter an MMA fight.

So he is not returning to professional boxing and I guess he wants to get quick bucks from one or two exhibition matches before he decides to fully concentrate in politics.
This has to be expected. He's already mentioned his retirement and it seems that he'll be making more money easy and clean through exhibition matches without the need to be pressured by protecting or breaking a title.

Sources at RIZIN claim that they are trying to get a match between Pacquiao and Mayweather. Pacquiao may be OK with it, but Floyd has so far rejected any such proposals.
It will be a tough negotiation if it's with Money, he don't want to get any loss even if it's goin to be an exhibition match with Manny.

Yes, just like what Mayweather did in the past years where he fought McGregor. The fight was held in the ring and not in the octagon, it will be a mismatch for sure if a boxer will fight an MMA fighter in the octagon because the boxer is not accustomed fighting like the MMA fighter does, whereas if the MMA fighter will fight the boxer in the ring, there's a good chance because the fight is somehow fair than the opposite.

For sure Manny Pacquiao was already courted by a number of combat organizations but he chose RIZIN, maybe he saw some good advantage why he chose RIZIN and I know there's a good reason behind it. We just don't know, I guess we will know it soon.
2255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: January 06, 2023, 04:31:48 PM

Well, I for one, believe that Keith Thurman has a slight to decent chance against Errol Spence Jr. although that would be one of the toughest fights that Thurman will have to endure next to his fight with the legendary Pacquiao. I just definitely think that Spence is playing some games where he will get his fight delayed against Thurman because that has to be the least thing he could do to get back on Thurman as this is a mandatory fight.

If Spence Jr. accepts a bout against Boots Ennis, he would be seriously knocked down and get stripped of the belts because I really don't think that Spence got the capabilities to get the opposite outcome. Ennis would definitely prevail on their fight.

Spence would absolutely destroy Thurman. Thurman has been ducking spence for years for a good reason. Thurman hates being hit in the body and Errol is the best body puncher in all of boxing. Thurman also cannot fight on the back foot which is why he was embarrassed against Pacquiao. Thurman has a very low chance of being Spence in my opinion.


I also think Ennis will lose to Spence. Who has Ennis beaten? He is a good fighter but not on the level of Spence and Bud. People really are forgetting just how seasoned and legit Spence is lol.

Well, I don't know if you already knew this but there's a saying that goes, there's a first time for everything.

Surely, Errol Spence didn't wake up as a champion already, right? Before he became what he is now, he also started from the very bottom and just the very same position where Boots Ennis is positioned right now, so records are not that really a big deal because as I said, there's a first time for everything and not all undefeated boxers are that strong and skillful because there are some boxers who already had some defeats on their rapsheet that are much powerful.

Also, I don't think that Thurman was ducking Spence years ago. It's just Thurman wasn't interested to give Spence a chance because the latter was not that famous and unique that time. As at that time, he was just a nobody, just like how you refer Boots Ennis that haven't beaten any good boxers yet.

Kings -4 ulit ako ngayong araw kabayan kontra sa koponan ng Hawks, good luck sa inyo.

Napagod yata ang Kings sa kakapanalo, hehe. Natalo sila sa homecourt nila, medyo close game ang laban pero mas clutch itong Hawks sa laro nila. Better luck next time nalang kabayan, meron pa namang bukas, nasa 4 games na nga lang, pero pwede ng pagtiyagaan.

Clippers ML
Magic ML
Dallas ML
Rockets ML

Hehe, akala ko mahahabol ng Kings yong Hawks pero kinapos pa rin, better luck next time kabayan. Hindi ako nakapusta kahapon dahil pahinga muna, medyo maalat yong mga hula ko lately.

Sasabay nalang ako sa Dallas ML @2.24 kabayan baka makadali sila ngayon sa Celtics pero delikado rin tong bet na to ahh kasi napahiya ng sobra yong Celtics laban sa Thunder nong isang araw.

Totoo nga kabayan, napahiya sila kaya bumawi ng malaking panalo. Kawawa naman ang Dallas, hindi na naka porma sa home court nila, walang quarter na nanalo sila, halos lahat dominated ng visiting team. Iba talaga ang Celtics, napaka delikado, mahina pag mahinang team ang kalaban pero kung playoffs team ang kalaban nila, ang gagaling nila.

Nakakapag tataka nga yung malaking talo nila laban sa Thunder, kahit naman din na sabihin nating homecourt yun ng Thunder eh di rin maituturing na advantage nila yon at wala din si SGA sa game na yon pero nagawa parin nilang ipahiya ang Celtics dahil sa tambak na higit 30 points. Pero yun nga, bumawi din ang Celtics laban sa Mavericks at tumambak din ng malaki. Napansin ko din na inuubo si Luka sa game na yon at grabi ang hingal nya kahit 1st half palang, di naman ganun sya kapagod.

Pacers -1.5 vs Blazers ako bukas kabayan, dagdag ko na rin ang Nets -4

You see no reason for referees using a headset inside the ring but when they do, that is something to really wonder why. There were just hypotheses about referees getting instructions from the top where they could just raise the hand of a fighter that obviously fated to win even before the fight started.

Maybe true, maybe not. We can't just associate that with a form of cheating as maybe, that serves another purpose. Although, who knows?

Generally, from judges to referees, there's really a chance to manipulate results especially if the fight turned out close.

Because of that, I remember the Bivol-Canelo bout where there are speculations that if the fight instead turned out close the whole time, judges can easily score more points for Canelo every round. This fight turned the underdog Bivol into a superstar overnight.

Referees wearing headset will really raise some suspicion to the public, even if they will have a valid reason for it, people and the respective camps will of course doubt as they don't know what's going on with the headset thing as they don't know what the referees are hearing. Anyway, are they using some kind of headset nowadays? I don't know that, if yes, then that shouldn't be allowed to prevent the referees from clouding their judgement.

So we are in a different era right now that as Luka said, it's easy to score in the NBA. And we can add to the sports medicine and trainings too has progressed in the last 20 years. A lot has really contributed why we are now seeing players scoring 40 points and higher per night.

Let's just appreciate how they play right now and so far, this is the most surprising season we had in the last 10 years because of how the star players in the teams turning their games into something historical play. With them being consistent in making their shots to score more than 50 points, they are about to surpass some great records this season and they are a few more points to be in the second but Kobe's still the best one after Wilt's 100. Do you guys think Victor Wembanyama can be the next Wilt Chamberlain? let's see if he gonna score more points in his first-season debut in the NBA.

That's quite a pressure you've got there for Victor Wembanyama, still too premature for that topic because the kid is still not in the league right now. But I do understand and truth is, there's a good possibility that he will break some records considering how good he is already and considering the era he is in now. The kid already got the height and talent needed, he's lacking a build right now to look buffed and it's still a mystery what's his future.

I think it's wise to invest smartly against 2024, there is high tendency of hitting it big in crypto from next year to 2024.
2024 is the time that the next halving will happen, so, it makes sense that you should look into that because we know how cheap the coins are right now. And then, how massively they could be on that time and most likely after the halving.

Yes, 2024 is the year of another bitcoin halving but that doesn't guarantee that the odds will be on our favor as we don't know yet when will this bear situation will stop. Halving seriously doesn't mean that bear market will be officially over once the year 2024 will commence and bull season will start, as per speculations, we will likely feel the market's relativity on our side by the end of that same year. Of course, still a speculation, but I do agree, let's load up our bags while the market is still selling at a discounted price.

Sabay ako sayo kabayan, maganda ang Jazz ngayon at homecourt advantage din.

Inalat kabayan, silat ung Jazz 2 points, ito talagang Sac kahit kelan eh hahaha, ang hilig manilat, kala ko maayos na yung rally sa 3rd quarter para magtuloy tuloy na ung pabor papunta sa Jazz kaya lang nagsipag ulit ung Sac sa 4th at talagang nakipagpalitan, naitakas tuloy ung panalo kontra sa home court team, silat kayong dalawa ni kabayang bisdak hindi ako nakataya medyo nawala sa isip ko yung game hindi na kasi ako masyadong tumataya before the game kadalasan sa Live ako nakikisipat ng masasabayan..


Nakatakas ako sa bet na yan kabayan hehe. Biglang nag iba ang ihip ng hangin at nasabay din ang isip ko kasi sa live games na ako pumusta at yun nga sa underdog ako napunta hindi sa Utah Jazz. Kamot na nga ako ng ulo kasi bakit pa ako pumabor sa Kings, pero wala na eh, nakapusta na. Di ko na inasahang biglang sisipagin ang Kings pagdating sa 4th quarter, inalat na din ang Jazz kaya di na nakasagot ng maayos.

Kings -4 ulit ako ngayong araw kabayan kontra sa koponan ng Hawks, good luck sa inyo.
