Well, after some comments that I read, I thought to myself, because I couldn't find an exact answer ...
Does anyone know what kind of sport is more corrupt and manipulated these days? Soccer? Boxe?
Corruption in sports is generally greater in developed or underdeveloped countries?
the average is soccer... in my country, 'soccer' is the most popular sport and after that badminton, other sports are only a small part and 'soccer' in my country has a bad history such as nepotism and scoring manipulation. Yes, the same in my country. Practically the "whole country" plays soccer, maybe ~ 70% of the sport is focused on soccer. So, with this high percentage rate, a good part of the corruption is in soccer in my country, but it is logical that there is also corruption in other sports, but on a smaller scale. Even FIFA was accused of corruption several times, so I think soccer is the most corrupt sport globally talking. There are many situations involving money laudering, bribery, fraud and all the kind of thinkable cheating with FIFA. Actually any activity in this world involving too many different individuals, countries and a lot of money has some corruption going on.

Wil depend on what game is too popular in that country. There are scripted games sometimes for the sake of doing illegal activities or by mere fact of being corrupt or putting money to the players to just do what they wanted, it can be from soccer, football, boxing or even in basketball as long as there officials who see opportunities to gain profit from it even in a biased way they will try for sure to do it. Yes, I agree! Soccer is the most famous sport in the world (generalizing), and I think it is also the one that moves the most money worldwide. I think that another important factor is the country, because depending on the rules and laws they can favor a certain type of activity related to corruption. |

Well, the AllStar Game was more or less what was expected, an interesting game with several 3-point shoots. Now, something that I was disappointed was with the Slam Dunk Contest, it seems that every year the level is getting worse.  Guys, what did you think of this slam dunk contest? I think it stops with the Gordon and LaVine competition and from that onwards it gets kinda boring, hope they could get any flavors now for the dunk contest maybe by modifying it, well, the 3-point contest just been modified.

Well, I think the competition between Lavine x Gordon was one of the most exciting competition of all time, Gordon's dunks were very creative, I think he could have even won that slam dunk contest or maybe a draw between them. About LeBron James, I think that if he participated in a slam dunk contest he could win, I don't know, although he is at an advanced age (he will be 37 this year), he has a lot of career ahead of him and even at 36 he can be considered one of the best NBA players today (in my opinion) |

Bem, realmente foi nítido essa queda aqui na nossa aba! Sinto falta de alguns usuários que eram bem ativos por aqui, mas que estão um bom tempo sem entrar no fórum, possivelmente devam estar resolvendo alguns problemas ou a correria do dia a dia "impedem" deles logarem aqui no fórum. Enfim, como nós podemos reverter esse quadro e aumentarmos o numero de posts, merits e demais "stats" na nossa aba local? O que acham de tentarmos fazer um novo concurso na aba luso-brasileira para "agitarmos" as coisas por aqui? Seria interessante que cada um desse uma opinião, o que acham?! |

É que de vez em quando eles tem que apresentar alguma "inovação" para mostrar que estão trabalhando. Esse é um exemplo disso.  Exato @Paredao , parece que quando envolve algum tipo de beneficio ""diretamente"" para o governo, eles dão um jeito de criar algum metodo/meio ou alguma tecnologia para tentar conseguir taxar o maximo possivel dos brasileiros, é triste mas é a realidade! Enfim, coisas de Brasil |

Caraca Ninja, tu ta rápido demais! hahaha É isso que da eu ficar só trabalhando, estudando e ficar fora da internet, to muito desatualizado Então, pelo trailer, deu um pouco a entender que eles poderiam ter "dramatizado" alguma cena ou coisa do tipo e ""distorcendo"" o que realmente aconteceu com a Silk Road. Mas se o filme retratar diversas coisas que realmente aconteceram, acho que vale a pena ver sim! Obrigado, vou dar uma olhada nessa sua recomendação |

[UPDATE] - Estou publicando de novo nesse tópico criado por mim que, gostaria de compartilhar com vocês o mais novo filme que será lançado nesse ano relacionado a criptomoedas e pelo trailer que eu vi, o filme parece ser muito interessante!  O filme chama-se Silk Road, de Tiller Russell Trailer - SILK ROAD Official Trailer (2021) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8zlJcKygbU&t=133s |

I think it doesn't just happen in your country, I think around the world!!!
Corruption is everywhere, including sports. Some players or referees don't care about selling themselves or things like that, some players only think about themselves and the benefits that this will give.
Unfortunately things happen that way
The reality that we should really need get to used to because this is how thing works on this world and everything cant really be perfect.This is a global problem because people do always love on earning money in all means even its including on risking up their own reputation.It doesn't matter if it hurts their reputation, they do always focus on how to make money and how it would benefit them without minding on what would be the effects or consequences once get caught. Exactly @Lanatsa, I agree with you. Unfortunately sometimes money corrupts the person, no matter who he is, player, politician, businessmen and others. Please, I'm not saying that ALL people are corrupt, but maybe, they can be |

I remember when I saw Sabonis, Adams and Kanter playing together in OKC in mid 2016/2017 (i guess), and several people said they would both have a promising future in the NBA ... yeah, how time flies!
Wow I'm impressed, are you a fan of the OKC or Sabonis? Honestly I can't remember anymore that he played with OKC but I do remember Adams and Kanter playing on the same team. All I know is that Sabonis started with the Pacers and slowly developed to become an all star. Yes, he played for a while at OKC. But I think he had more contrast when he played for Pacers. True, little by little he was improving his game and he is at the level he is today. Schroder did not have his feet planted on the ground and was in motion, Curry threw himself against him (it was clear), and it was still a bad flop.
Nowadays it is normal for players to flop to win free throws. And some players even deserve to win the award for best actor lol
Actually, it's not about the possible flop but there's an extended elbow of Steph Curry that hits Schroder's face and that's why he is pissed off. Flop is now a part of the NBA's today culture but since there's physical contact, it's a different story. It's an accident of course but Schroder got the foul. Yeah, now that I saw the elbow in detail, I think it wasn’t on purpose, it’s a game thing. Depending on the referee, he would have missed an attack, but it was not a flagrant foul mostly if its just a small part or not too much contact star players mostly get away with it, this are some of the advantage of this players and also contacts with them are often called, even if its not that hard, on the other hand, if they eritates the refs they will get a lot of calls against them, I find these new refs so sensitive. reposting your post after a few days ... Yes, I agree with you, star players always have an advantage in fouls, traveling or things like that. For example, LeBron James that he has been traveling several times and the referee did not punish him. My friend is a basketball referee, and he once said to me, "Everything that the referee doesn't see is allowed in basketball." ps: i know, each country has "your rules" and the NBA rules are different. |

Eu também @alegotardo , também não dei a devida atenção... (inclusive em um tópico do @lucasgabd criado explicando sobre DeFi no "inicio da febre" há um tempo atrás, que nem dei atenção também ) Concordo com você, a tendencia agora será essa e vai sendo aprimorada aos poucos (...)
Gostei de ver @Lucasgabd , como disse, fico feliz em saber de trabalhos realizados por brasileiros estão ganhando espaço nesse mundo das criptomoedas. Avante! |

MEI de mineração que eu saiba ainda não existe. Tem que dar sugestão ao querido ministro da economia para criar uma modalidade de MEI que se enquadre nessa categoria. @Paredao , ai nesse caso, seria necessário o governo criar um CNAE (Classificação Nacional de Atividades Econômicas) especifico de mineração de criptomoedas, certo!?!? A 3060 TI é ótima, ainda deve estar fazendo 1k por mês mesmo com essa queda do ETH.. A 2080 TI deve fazer o mesmo porém gastando um pouco mais de energia..
Nossa, não sabia que a 3060ti fosse tão "bruta" desse jeito e muito menos conseguir tirar 1k BRL minerando, fiquei surpreso Sim, as 2080ti consomem um energia consideravel, tornando-as ""inviaveis"" para minerar, caso alguem queria ter o maximo possivel de relação custo x beneficio |

Some players or referees don't care about selling themselves or things like that, some players only think about themselves and the benefits that this will give.
I doubt. Players worked their way up and it's a hard path so I doubt they will participate in this "at several cases".Players aren't that dumb to throw away their career easily. I think that fraud involves people from officiating and not on the players. Leagues also are very careful not to throw their reputation too as the reason why they are being profitable is because of the people that support them. Should we discuss the political side too? lol I understand, I respect your opinion @harizen and I agree with you, professional players have worked hard to get where they are. I may have expressed myself badly, but it is some players / teams that are willing to do that. For example, in a soccer game, national championship, last round, if the team that is in 2nd place wins or draws the game it becomes 1st place and wins the championship. If, for example, this team that is in 2nd place plays against a team that is in the last places, and that team has few resources / money, you think that if the team that is in 2nd offers a certain amount of money to buy the game, this team that is in the last positions will not sell? Basically he has nothing to lose. But of course this is just an example, and things like that can happen in any game in any sport. Well, in politics my country is a lost case, literally lol |

Look, if that wasn't an offensive foul, the judge could have appplied nothing. Schroder did not have his feet planted on the ground and was in motion, Curry threw himself against him (it was clear), and it was still a bad flop. Nowadays it is normal for players to flop to win free throws. And some players even deserve to win the award for best actor lol By the way, I was happy that Domantas Sabonis was chosen for the All Star, in my opinion it was deserved, each passing day, he is improving his game
Based on what I've read. He's going to play and replace Durant who's been injured. Congratulations to him, very good guy. 3rd time for the all-star right? Yes, you're right! I am happy that he is having this other opportunity to show his work. I think that over the years he will improve his skills even more. Having a legendary basketball player for a father definitely gave him some opportunities, but he’s risen to the challenge and proven himself an above average NBA player. I think he benefits a little from being on a weak team that gives him more chances to gain stats, but he’d be a welcome addition to any NBA team. Yes, @OgNasty well minded, Arvydas Sabonis was an excellent player for the Blazzers. I remember when I saw Sabonis, Adams and Kanter playing together in OKC in mid 2016/2017 (i guess), and several people said they would both have a promising future in the NBA ... yeah, how time flies! |
