I guess we can't call any team a super team anymore and there aren't any team now that's a favorite to win the championship. Balance has been brought back 😁
That's what is exciting with the upcoming season of NBA. There is no absolute favorite to win the NBA Championship and the era of Superteam is finally closing. Welcome to the era of super duo.

and though the warriors are by no means weak with kd's departure, a lot of teams in the west now are capable of dethroning them as western conference champs.
GSW will be struggling in the opening of the season since KT is still recuperating from his injury. We will see a reborn GSW when he comes back at the later part of the season. Curry and Green just have to carry the team for a while, while KT is out.

I guess the only thing we can confidently say for now is that we'll have new champions by the end of the season. I highly doubt that the raptors are geared for a repeat.
Without Kawhi on their rooster, it is highly doubtful they will be a contender. At least they had a taste of being a champion for a year, thanks to Kawhi.

Imagine that you are a new player in the crypto world and have no idea about this topic.
What are you doing now? Read the book? You invest your savings in bitcoin, maybe you look at other coins (alts) or maybe you see that the price is falling and you're waiting to buy even lower. If so, do you know when to buy? What's your plan for this moment? Smiley

I would educate myself first and foremost. I will not get involved in something I have totally no idea at all. I would do the necessary diligence to know every cons and pros there is on bitcoin.

The market is in a pickle right now. The price is dropping and US President making negative comments on bitcoin greatly impacted its bull run. Newbies should be wary making investments right now.

Do you know how to protect your cryptocurrency from whale ‘rinse and repeat’ trades?

You are only affected by this if you are a trader, otherwise, just hold your bitcoin and the price will eventually go back up.

For traders, you can just set a target price for profit and stick to it. Also, set a stop loss so you won't get wrecked when the price suddenly goes against your trade. Chasing max profit usually does not goes well to daily traders.

Thurman Versus Pacquiao: Can Thurman Turn The Odds And Knock Pacquiao Out?-
https://www.ibtimes.com/thurman-versus-pacquiao-can-thurman-turn-odds-knock-pacquiao-out-2806676
It's easy to say than doing it,  boxers have a lots of time reviewing their opponents style and to keep finding good style to take the edge of winning but from that point the opposing party also taking its time to find ways to counter the possibilities, new sets of combinations and new sets of training practices, it will be a good match seeing both fighters to be aggressive to win this match.

Yeah, but normally boxers target the weak habits of their opponents. those habits are hard to change. As the fight goes longer habits will come out. Just like how pacquaio throws knockout punches leading with his head. That is how Marquez koed him. When he went for the kill, he leaned forward with his head open. Marquez countered him. Thurman can study pacquiao and find  habits he can exploit as well.

The thought that I have total control over my bitcoin. No one can take it away from me, even the government, ease my mind on bitcoin.

honesty, it is making easy and fast money.i thought it was easy lol.
Unfortunately, it not always that easy. Trading needs a lot of reading and preparation. Investment is a risk and there is always a chance that you will lose.
2366  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think a "winning mindset" can get you what you want while gambling? on: July 16, 2019, 03:09:23 PM
Though it is also important to have a positive mindset as "winning mindset", we still experienced loses. And that may actually affect or reduce our confidence, our optimistic approach and optimistic mindset. This is gambling, it may somehow help if you carry a positive approach but luck is always the main reason why we are winning.
I think this mindset is all about attracting positive things on you. Like what they say in Law of Attraction, positive thoughts attract positive experience. So having a positive mindset attracts good luck into the player. Since gambling is all about luck, it is just right to have a positive mindset before gambling.

The trust with Gianis even if he didnt perform well on the Finals is still intact. Brogdon's loss though is a huge one. He just made it from his injury and traded now to Indiana. Looks like they are just going to use him while Oladipo is injured.

Giannis still needs to improve a lot. He has become predictable and other teams already know how to exploit his weakness. It's that or the team compliments him with good outside shooters so he can freely exploit the inside when defense spreads out.

Are there any benefits for those team who didn't really shuffle their line ups? Like, there are no changes in their line up from the previous season.

Maybe the benefit is more on teamwork since they know each other well. But I believe even good teams need a little tweak in the lineup. If they did not win a championship, then it means that they are not the best team that can be. They can keep the core but the role players can be switched to improve the performance of a team.
2368  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will there be physical casinos operating with cryptos in the future? on: July 16, 2019, 11:40:47 AM
My thoughts here, I wonder if in the future, physical casinos will use cryptos

I know casinos use coins to spend inside and them people can exchange these coins to fiat money again

But maybe a casino can use cryptos inside, you buy a card with BTC or LTC for example, and you can play with this card


Have you ever think about his? What is you opinion guys?

I do not think that is practical at all. Chips will stay as a standard on any casino because it is easier to count and stack. It just feels great if you can see a large stack of chips on your table.

But cryptocurrency can still be integrated to any casinos. Casinos can accept crypto as payment for chips. If I am a gambler, I rather have my winnings in crypto so no one can steal it away from me when I walk out the establishments.
2369  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: We can't blame crypto and blockchain technology on: July 15, 2019, 05:54:37 PM
The problem is we started off at the wrong foot when bitcoin was used in the black market for drugs and illegal activities. That is the image retained to those who are not exposed to cryptocurrency and do not fully understand bitcoin or blockchain. And then scammers are rampant in cryptosphere. Bitcoin can be used in good and bad things but in here the bad side is the one always exposed to the public. It is just a matter of exposing the good side of bitcoin more.
2370  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Can we ever have altcoin season again. on: July 15, 2019, 03:43:13 PM
I honestly do not know if there will still be an altcoin season but for altcoin holders, like me, have no choice but to hold on to it or sell at loss. I believe in the fundamentals of the altcoin that I am holding right now so, I do not fear this bear season for alts. I believe my alts will eventually move up in value.

I think that the big movement will start in the end of August or early September, so now we need to continue to buy more altcoins.

What made you think that this will happen? If bitcoin price continues to rise, altcoins will remain in the back burner. I do not see bitcoin slowing down, at least for the near future.
2371  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pacquiao Now Stands as Favorite vs Thurman — Sportsbooks on: July 15, 2019, 03:48:01 AM
I am betting for a knock out in this match and I am in even numbers of round. So if thurman gets knock out on numbers 2,4,6,8,10 & 12 then I can have my win profit.

At this point in the career of Manny Pacquiao, I am not expecting a KO anymore. The most I am expecting is a unanimous decision in favor of Pacquiao.

Manny is very ready to fight even right now. I just do hope that he won't overtrain as there are a lot of reports coming from Philippine media that Manny is already at the peak of his training already and as I have said can fight anytime, anywhere.
That is to be expected because we are just a few days away from the bout. He will be reducing his sparring matches in preparation for the fight night.

Usually younger fighter has a better stamina but Pacquaio is an exemption, he hasn't slowed down on its movement in the ring but maybe the power was reduced a bit.

That still needs to be proven. We will see on the fight night if he still has enough stamina to last fo12 rounds. I think Thurman's strategy is to move around a lot in the ring. That will require a lot of energy from Pacquiao to catch a younger fighter.

Speaking of first pick, Zion is injured? It may not be that serious but I think that can be dangerous for the team in the future games.

If I am correct, his injury is just bruised knees. SO, there is nothing to worry about that. The challenge will be in the coaching staff of Pelicans how will they train zion to become fitter. In my opinion, he is overweight for the way he plays. He can easily bust those knees if he keeps on playing like that without proper weight management.

That's what I think about Westbrook. The team management may have made a bad idea of bringing Westbrook to Houston though. Eventhough he is a good player in his position but Houston has James Harden who we know lead the team and I don't think Westbrook will follow the lead of Harden.

Let us not over judge them for now. They know their circumstances right now and I hope they act to it accordingly. They are already aging and still chasing a championship ring. I hope they'll prioritize the game and championship over personal ego. Let's see when the season commence how these two will blend together.
2373  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone else experienced this with Stake.com?? on: July 13, 2019, 05:40:16 PM
I sometimes played on stake.com out of curiosity, this post was posted May and this is July and so by now the bug has been fixed, so far I have never experienced that, but if you have a poor connection you will suffer lag in updating your bet and of course your balance.

It can still happen sometimes. I experience this issue when I play stake in two different browsers. Like I am playing auto dice on one, and poker on the other. I do this when there are race competitions. Sometimes the balance does not update on one browser.
2374  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Top 5 Bitcoin Dice Strategy Guide: How to Win at Crypto Dice on: July 13, 2019, 05:17:28 PM
1-3. Its not always work, you need a bigger amount because if you don't have enough fund the loses streak will aim you. A normal lose streak it could be around 5-7 streak, if you not lucky you can get 10-15 loses streak and make your amount out of the fund.
Actually, I experience that once but not in a dice game. That is a first-hand experience how fast your funds get depleted by martingale strategy and really long losing streaks do exists.

4. This its was nice, for the player who doesn't have a big amount.

5. I'm never using this method, maybe i will try it sometimes. Want to see the result using this method.

Tried them but I do not have the luck to win from that strategy.

In the end, my conclusion is, do not try to win. Just enjoy the game. It is a game of luck. You win some, you lose some.
2375  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: July 13, 2019, 04:03:41 PM
Maybe they could stop Harden from making 300 dribbles before he shoots the ball. Grin
Easier said than done. Remember, this was the cause of the rift between him and CP. Harden just do not want to play off the ball.

But I think they have the individual talents needed to make into the championship. It will be a hard task for the coach to make these two superstars blend together but it can be done. If they can work together, they have solid role players on their back.
2376  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you like to see Bitcoin prize stable between 10K-20K? on: July 13, 2019, 01:18:32 PM
Do you like to see Bitcoin prize stable between 10K-20K? or keep this pattern and behave like in past? 20K - 3K. I personally like to see bitcoin stable between 10K-20K. So everyone will happy for the situation.Open for discussion.

I think 10 to 20K is still a wild range. It can still devastate others if there is a sudden dump to 10k from 20K. I prefer bitcoin ranging from 17 to 20K. Good range for trading while not so disappointing for holders or investors. This price range will not hurt those who want to use it as a payment method.

Also, it is very strange that Kawhi accepted lesser money to join the Clippers.

That took me by surprise. Initial reports say he will sign for $141 M for 4 years but he signed for a 3 year $103M with player options on 2021. Maybe he turned down a max contract for future flexibility but right now, no one can really tell what Kawhi is thinking. He keeps on surprising us with his career moves.

2379  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: More Exchanges Keep coming up( benefits or loss) on: July 11, 2019, 02:41:23 AM
The market for new exchange is already saturated. There are already too many exchanges available in the market that some of them do not have any volume.

The good side is that more tokens has the oportunity of getting listed on exchanges.
example; NCHT( nano healthcare)  project just got listed on etherbase exchange.

The bad side is, even if these tokens get listed to some new exchanges, there is very little chance they will be noticed or get some volumes. Most new exchanges have very little or fabricated volume. It is still best if it gets listed to established or popular exchange.
2380  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Libra the future anyone wants? on: July 11, 2019, 12:14:04 AM
Libra coin is just a blockchain based version of fiat. No true advocates of decentralized cryptocurrency would ever want that. But we also have to admit that there are millions of facebook users that are not into crypto, so those will be their target customers. The bad rep will be, those customers will consider it as true crypto since they are not well aware of bitcoin and true characteristics of a decentralized cryptocurrency.
