I agree. I actually thought of Howard's signing with the Lakers when they won the league as a reference. They're not the what we call as "impact players" but their contributions can still turn the tide on important or crucial games.

Of course, any team that he can go he will add toughness inside, but then again, he is undersized for a center so not sure if he will also be a good fit.

But if the price is good then why not? Specially if Joel gets injured early, as least they have someone to cover him in that position even if he is not that tall to bang with the true centers in the league.

Anderson has already had like 3/4 bouts, and beat Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, which I do recall he was a heavy underdog in the fight. Also beat Tito Ortiz, and both of these were like a year or so ago. So, arguably he has the same experience that Jake Paul has, but in additional also has MMA experience. So, this isn't a boxer vs a MMA guy, at least not completely. Silva made his bread, and butter in MMA, but he's had a decent boxing career, albeit only a short one.

Jake Paul technically is fighting someone who has fought in boxing before, whereas before they hadn't.

Haha - using KuCoin. Take a listen to my channel. I'm using very small positions (0.5% - 1% of my account and adding margin as appropriate.) I've done this for years and have a good system down Thanks for the comment!

Terra Luna Classic and Voyager are two projects nobody expects to attract a lot of investors anymore. Yet they're going parabolic ? Right at the bottom of one of the worst bear markets crypto's ever had ??
This is madness.

It will be fun to see Jake fall down to the ground and stop looking down at the UFC fighters but he actually has the chance to also KO Silva. Silva is not very mobile because of his leg injury, seems very delicate for him to do some side steps that might crack again. When you get old, your bones get brittle and brittle. Not much difference in their reach so Jake could also throw jabs from a distance. It's all just timing.

It was in the Sixers where he signed and maybe there is a bit of mistake with that post.

After giving Drummond to the Nets in the Harden-Simmons trade, the Sixers really lacked a big at that time and it was Embiid who was their reliable big. Now they are starting to acquire bigs like DeAndre Jordan and now they also got Harrell who isn't tall for a big TBH but a good defender and a former 6th man of the year when he was in Clippers. His stint with the Lakers was the reason why his efficiency went down drastically but I think he can still contribute more to the team knowing how he played when he was in the Clippers. It's a good sign to the Sixers as Embiid will play less minutes.

I think this is going to be a bigger injury even though a lot of people are thinking otherwise. As far as I know, he still cannot put pressure on his leg. So, I think it is going to be really hard for him to start playing quickly.

Don’t get me wrong.  I really want to see him play very quickly. But I just don’t think that his leg is in a condition to take that pressure. He had suffered an Injury previously as well. It will be really sad if he also suffers injury this season as well. As far as I am hearing, things don’t look good.

Just saw this news. I am so sick and tired of this kid and his brother fighting these old dudes who aren’t even boxers. I mean Anderson Silva is 47 years old. I guess if I could fight someone who played a different sport, is much older and past their prime yet still make millions of dollars I’d do it to. I just want to see these dudes actually fight a legitimate boxer their own age.

Regardless I’ll be tuning in hoping for a Silva KO.

I agree that it was very unfortunate that Danilo hasn't even play for the Celtics and he got injured in FIBA. And that is why the name of Carmelo Anthony surfaces as potential replacement for him in Celtics. But I don't see any similarities, if there will be Anthony might be worst defender than Gallinari. But let's see, Carmelo can still play and give good numbers per night. Let's see what the Celtics will do to find at least a good replacement for Danilo and if that will be Anthony at least for this year in green uniform.

You already said it: money. This is the main motivation why a lot of legendary MMA fighters agreed to fight Jake on boxing even though they know that they will get their asses beat due to the terms of the fight. After the ass-whooping and throwing their experience and their selves in shame, they will get a fat pay check, which usually happens since the viewership of such events are through the roof. Hopefully for Silva he hands Jake some proper spanking, but I doubt that will happen.

I don't know, why not just wait? I know that they can't win anything this year with this roster, but just roll it like this and lose, and then next year you are going to have just a HUGE salary space and you could get another star? Thats going to be the key factor for them, hell they could even get like some high contract just like westbrook, a bad player, like some john wall situation and get a ton of picks as well. This won't help them today, but it will help them after Lebron leaves or retires. They will have some picks back and be bad for a few years and then have a great run of picks to build a good team.

I really don't think any team should get this prayer right now for this much money. This would be a waste of huge amounts of money for them. He is not in a good form right now and he is certainly not worth this much money. Lakers are going to have some big problems trying to trade this player. 47 million dollars is going to be wasted if anyone tries to get this player. His current form does not suggest he is worth 47 million dollars.

It was a tough game for Bosnia and Herzegovina and yet they did the impossible by defeating the defending champions Slovenia. I was surprised at what their coach did using different strategies that would best fit the team and have Slovenia be on a rough night. Doncic is 0/8 at outside shots and his penetration moves are not working much.
It's a big achievement for them so B&H celebrated with their fans at the end of the game. 
IIRC, that was @8.40 when you bet for them in the money line or +10 for @2.00 in the second half.

Yeah the injuries should be spread around instead of all on my team this year! LMAO!

Just finished draft on another 12 man league and I gotta say pick 2 Sucked, pick one you get LT with 2 you got 6 guys pretty even and then wait 20 picks to go again.

Haven't had the time yet to do a AAR like southpark did but gonna try in the next few days.

Can't wait till Thursday!

To be honest, I doubt the Jazz would have any interest in Westbrook, given the Jazz management's desire to collect future draft picks to rebuild the team. Moreover, Westbrook should earn $47 mln for the coming season, and I don't think any team would want to waste so much money at a time when there are plenty of other good players out there for less money.

I wouldn't put much stock in that yahoo report card business.  I came in third place, but I don't think I had a great draft.  I wanted to focus on Running Backs, but I had to compromise because the ones I wanted were already gone.  Taking Dalvin Cook with my first pick was okay, but I was really hoping Derik Henry would slip to my slot, and South Park snagged Nick Chubb right before my second pick.  I also think I waited too long to pick a Tight End.

I am happy with my QB selections, and I did snag Deboo in the third round.  I was planning on going for another Running Back, but taking Deebo was worth it.  It ended up making my other WR selections take a back seat to getting another decent RB, so my remaining WRs are compromises.  What can you do.


Damn, that sucks dude.  Sorry you had that trouble.  You were actually the one I worried about the most for going after my preferences, and then I thought that your fist pick was rather odd.

Woodley really wasn't an amateur. Plus, Anderson is literally legendary level when it comes to MMA, and as evidenced above Anderson is a proper striker, and while he was definitely known for his kicks in MMA, he's definitely better than a amateur in terms of striking ability.

I just feel Jake doesn't get the credit, because of how I initially thought of him. So, he's fighting a uphill battle because of his past history, but he has decent striking, and he has some power in those shots. None of the knockouts were staged, and it's hard to knock someone out like he did, especially in boxing. Usually, it takes a lot of punches, like a compounding effect. His knockouts were literally off the cuff, without much damage before hand. That's not something to ignore, that's skill, and he obviously has the right biological structure to generate the power he does.

Like I said, I was also a doubter, and thought it was ridiculous, but this is a young fighter who's looking to make a career, and he's got a better record, against better fighters than most champions had. Despite them being MMA fighters, they were literally champions. Woodley being the most impressive due to him being somewhat known for his power, and chin.
