Simmons has the length and he is an elite defender but that can't cover his lack of shooting abilities, can't shoot free throws and him being scared to shoot.
He's afraid to shoot. He's afraid to drive. All that because he's afraid to miss from the FT line. He knew he would be fouled. He doesn't want to be blamed again because of his poor FT shooting but it still backfired on him and the team. I saw a funny meme earlier that Shaq had a higher FT% than Simmons hehehe. He is the one that needs to blame with what happened to the Sixers this post-season. He is the worst free throw shooter in the history of the NBA playoffs (all players who attempted at least 70 shots). I want to blame Doc Rivers too because they know already from the start that Simmons is afraid to shoot and having a hard time shooting free throws and yet he still puts him in the court. For what?? For defensive purposes? He might be a good defender like I said but still, he can be a liability to his team because of his problems. I just hope that the team where he will land in this offseason will be the one who can improve his shooting skills. I might be optimistic to this player and he might still redeem himself if he will be traded in another team and they can improve him too. Golden State might be one, Portland might too. Any other team might do as long as they can improve his shooting skills because he is the worst TBH. In defense of Coach River though, he definitely has to put Ben back he is the second best player in that Sixers team. And in previous interviews, he defended Simmons from the media, however, Ben has a mental break down in this series, lots of questions and we got the answer now, he can't carry a team, he has exposed in this series. I was the reply in which he has a chance to dunk the ball but opted to pass it. That was one example that he has no longer the confidence to shot the ball. You can see the Joel went after him and I'm sure he ask Ben why he passes the ball inside of dunking it. So now basketball media is after Simmons, even Joel goes on the interview, not specially giving names but you can see that he is referring to Simmons. It's time to trade Simmons, they can get a good player/s in return that could shoot free throws and do the defense, maybe not as good with Simmons but they should get something that is reliable especially in playoffs time. I think Sixers could have won that series if Joel got some consistent help from his teammates. |

Buying meme tokens / coins are purely gambling and really not good for investing. The risk is is 95% loss and we just hoping someone with power to pump it which is really bad for crypto trading activity. Never buy meme coins and hoping for profits, just buy it for collection with some spare money, and if we get lucky enough we take profits but if not, it's okay
True, it is a very good solution for everyone to run because expecting 10x the coin meme is a gamble where the wins are very small and the losses are very large, which is a risk, so if you don't like buying with spare money, it's better to shunned because it is also better. You can never say that all meme coins are just shitcoins, some are still left worth for an investment. And talking about risk, we could be aware of what we are doing, investing in crypto correspond with high risk and everything is a gamble even with Bitcoin and known altcoins. That is why the majority will be saying invest only the money that you can afford to lose. Yeah, everyone has their own choice and to invest in meme coins is a choice either. If they saw that particular coin (meme) has the potential, why not? |

Sideways trends have proved that technical analysis doesn't always mean anything.
What do you think about it?
That is what you think mate and I meant to agree with that for the reason that we can't predict right the market where to go. Even we just focus on a single coin, still can't make it right or at least being close to the real scenario. What we just doing here is to live in a speculative market, it is sometimes we ask for luck but unfortunately, it often to heard. But even to say that TA's doesn't mean anything to you (and I'm agreeing with that), well, I'm still using this one no matter what it takes. Because I'm still believing that in some other way it helps me more than those who use nothing. |

It's really attractive, but will you bet on the betting sites that have the odds now? I think it's better if we wait until it's already available, we still have one day and hopefully, that odds will be out. I guess it's not only +900 but we can see +1500 in other sites as one site has x15 wins on Dasmarinas. We are going to see this fight tomorrow but still not betting odds on the popular crypto sportsbook. What happened? Aren't they interested in taking our bets? I believe bookies will be able to get a good amount of bets especially bettors from the Philippines and Japan, so it's not wise not to offer a betting line of this particular fight. |

76ers vs Hawks. Looks like Hawks won't win this one but they should be weary about 76ers offense. Too uncertainty so I'm not taking any bets for this one.
Four consecutive 3's to start the second half for the Sixers that make them take the lead. Seth Curry is hot and keeping them afloat in this ballgame. Don't know with Simmons, maybe they have to trade him because he became a liability when games got close in the end, can't hit those damn free throws. Just seconds remaining, Sixers ahead by 5 points. Yeah, Seth went hot again, that gives them a 10 point lead early in the 3rd. The going thing is that the Sixers will able to hold off the rally and didn't check. Tobias Harris did play good and so is Joel again. Critical seconds for those who have Sixers by -3.5 handicapped.  Too close but those who bets with that handicap they manage to escape thanks to Tobias Harris who made all those 4 FT to secure the lead. Ben Simmons needs to adjust and deal with his FT if he won't do anything with this hawks will keep challenge his capabilities. Embiid and Curry together with Harris lift the entire Sixers to win and extend the series to the final game 7. Hawks will go back to Philly and try things in a much tougher challenge. The sixers should win the series, their only problem is the 2nd half of the game, but that time they were in control, they are the ones who had a good run especially in the 3rd quarter and the Hawks have lost their focus. It will be tough for the Hawks to win as they will be playing on the road, and according to the trend, majority of the game 7 is won by home teams. |

Can't wait for tomorrow's match against SoKor. Want to see Gilas giving a definition of what's the "lucky shot" is supposed to be.  This is like a training ground with this young guns now for them to improve more in the future but I guess the roster will be updated again once the Asia Cup is nearing.
Yes. That would be the best training ground that those youngsters will experience - international competition. I think this is the first time that the full lineup of Gilas was composed of young guns for FIBA qualifiers, correct me if I'm wrong though. Anyone here wants to bet on the Philippines to win? The betting line is already available, Philippines is +6.5 in this game, but if you will bet on the moneyline, you will get +300 or x3 of your bet. |

Fear from not taking your chance This fear is something that can't be eliminated for every trader, even if you are already reliable. Fomo is one of the power movers for traders and if you can't control this feeling, you will surely just get carried away. No... An experienced trader would have seen almost or same occurrence repeating itself, so taking the good chance for profit shouldn't be a fear for such trader. Here are some of the qualities of an experienced trader: He understands that when making a trade order, he is calling for profit or losses He is able to read the chart and to recognise a repeated happening and goes for the kill. Such trader uses money management and stop loss. Yes, FEAR is just for those who are new to trading, it is for those who are afraid to lose. He becomes a pro trader because he understands the risk and able to manage it so well. He takes everything of what will be the consequences he faces, either be a loose end or in profit. And aside from that, he knows already his capabilities, he can do trading without any complaint about losing as he already aware of that. |

Honestly, this is still not the time to be greedy because the market hasn't reached the bottom price but if we are talking about long term investors then this is the time for them to be greedy, I will say this is the time to invest with cautious and also exit from all hype based project.
In this market, it depends on your capability, whether you will invest or not. One can think of long term investments, whereas, a lot are only for short-term profits. But whatever your situation on this matter, make sure that you are ready to face the possible consequences of your investments. With this in mind, it is better to invest what you can afford to lose. It is the usual advice but unfortunately, some people don't follow such piece of advice. Their emotions drive in the wrong direction. They live in a fear condition than of a so-called greediness. They fear about to lose the opportunity of buying Bitcoin at cheaper that is why they buy more and more, and never realize that they are overbuying. But look what happens to them, they face the huge consequences of their actions. If it happens that the price of Bitcoin won't pump, they'll be likely selling it. |

Spot trading is more easier for beginners compared to Arbitrage and scalping, and some other strategies. Well, they all are risky, and as an amateur trader will surely look for a place that he can easily understand how to trade. In so many many tutorials we have seen, most of them are suggesting to start using spot trading and that is why the majority had also to follow. It could be a sort of influence, I don't know.
But for me, I use spot trading, I'm already contented with the results so I would stick there. I'm not saying I was successful already but at least, I was in profiting. Well, we can't deny about losses as we gonna experience that.

It can be reached 1$ if another hype begins, but i doubt it will be happens since the bear started and people are have so many fear and frustated on doge recently.
I don't think that another hype is enough to make Dogecoin run to $1. With Elon's hype, what could be the other hype that doge needs? I think it's already enough for it and there's no need for more hypes on it because people have learned from it already. IMO If its adopted by many micro merchants or used regularly by great community and the hyped from great influence happens, it will be. I don't see anyone who could hype DOGE than what Elon has done. The hype is over and the market seems to be bearish already, so DOGE will return to its cheap price as there's really no big adoption happening on DOGE yet, hence it makes the price overvalued that needs some correction. |

Yeah it's a bloodbath, I guess this time our miners are not taking it well in China with the reported bans we keep on hearing about !
Honestly with the authoritarian government of there what's the best option bitcoin has? Another soft fork to change how it works, maybe we can change the mining process altogether and stay clear of the backlash that comes from bitcoins pollution and carbon footprints... the crypto universe has been shaken.
This is no the first time we hear bad news pertaining to China's restriction on miners, investors, and traders of crypto, so it's safe to assume that the market has been shaken already in the past, but where we are now? we did survive and the market still grows, so just don't look back and focus on the future. |

Like I get the markets move but is this big wallets, ancient wallets? Who is actually selling? Normie noobs who just got in the market and are spooked by comments?
I dream of the day when alt coins are not tied to the price of bitcoin. Uhg...
For sure, newbies are scared when the market goes down. So it wouldn’t be a surprise to me that a lot of them sold their coins when they saw the market crash. But another thing to look at is the trigger for this action. A lot of things might have happened to trigger the sale. We have seen people like Elon Musk and the ways they have always tried to manipulate the market with their words. But I don’t look at all these things because I feel like they are meant to happen. The market won’t rise forever, no matter what, there is always going to be a time when it will go down. That’s is it for me. I can't blame them and it was not surprising that most of them suffer such feelings as they are not really prepared for the market crash. Because what they think first it makes a profit, they always think that price will keep moving high, it wasn't in their mind to think about a market crash. Many are selling for the sake to save their funds, and it wasn't right for me.
This gonna be a lesson to learn for newbies, We must not be confident with the market and never, never underestimate the word volatility. |

Crypto trading is risky and no one know the perfect time to sell cause market prediction will never provide 100% accurate result but what's important is you understand the risk involve in crypto market, understand the promising level of the project/coin you picked interest in and set an exit plan.
It just only pure speculation, we live in this market where we are not 100% about the incoming. We never know when to sell and as well as when to buy. We usually use our common sense and this is really hard for those who are not good at this. What I mostly did in making a decision when to sell, is when the time has come that I'll be seeing some profit. |

I share the opinion of the author. Globally, the bear market is not yet visible. The drop from 05/19/2021 that we saw is most likely a correction in the globally bull market. Now I see no serious reason to continue corrections for a long time. We slowly recover from the fall and gradually the market warms up again. The summer heat just melted the brains of many people. But the market has not fully realized its potential.
it's not over yet and we still see a strong push for Bitcoin continuing to return to the top line. and only a slight correction to be footing, we see the red candle tail is not too long and it already shows there is strength for Bitcoin towards a fair price at the end of the year it just takes massive adoption from countries that are soon adopting Bitcoin. It's not enough that El Salvador is at the front, we need other big countries to look at Bitcoin as an official medium of exchange instead of paper money. Another failed attempt for btc to breakout, now it's going downtrend again with a red market in 2 days already. Maybe we are really destined to see a bear market for the rest of the year, we will be heading to the 2nd half of the year soon, and if this bear market continues, we might see more dumps and see a price of $20k or $10k the worst. |

I don't like to say this but thanks to Elon Musk, things became better after his last statements. But it didn't last long also. The previous FUDs just destroyed the market and still there is not much recovery. It looks like we need more time to see the market starting to go upwards.
Don't expect that people will still believe on Elon Musk, he already destroyed his reputation, the fact he back DOGE and bring it to the moon, that's a clear statement that he is into the manipulation game and investors doesn't want to follow that kind of personality even if he is so popular as one of the riches in the world. |

I tried trading Bitcoin a couple of years ago but quit after I lost $300. What advice do you have for me if I decide to start trading again? Thank you!
These are what I can advice to you. - Fill your mind with knowledge. - Have plan and strategy. - Only use a capital you can afford to lose. And use them wisely. There are a lot of people who invest in time and knowledge here but to know what, they all forget those learning as they are driven by their emotions. What I can suggest (additional), it is a need to learn how to control as this was the hardest part in trading. Many had lost their opportunity because of this thing and it mostly happens to beginners. |

Still no betting line for this fight?
The fight will happen 3 days from now and we still don't have any opportunity to bet, nah.. this would be boring without us putting a bet.
I hope they'll be up tomorrow or the next day.
Anyone already see a betting line for this fight?
I just check Sportsbet.io and yeah, this fight is not listed https://sportsbet.io/sports/boxing/matches/futureWill be boring indeed if we are going to see the fight and then we don't have any bets. Hope that Sportsbet.io is aware of this fight, and know that there are a lot of Inoue and Dasmarinas fans wiling to put a bet on this fight. I also checked it from stake and the fight is not available as well, bookies should consider this fight and provide the odds now for much earlier betting to those fans who loves to stake their money with their favorite fighter. It's a much awaited fight and even Inoue have a good edge from Dasmarinas for sure there are still fans that loves taking the big risk. Let see if how early the adjustment will be done from the sports house, a great fight to expect. The site has it, but this site has a bad reputation, so you are not only gambling on the fight, you are also gambling whether you can withdraw your funds or not. We all have a choice, some say they were able to withdraw their money but I'm seeing a lot of "scam accusations" about the site. |

Nets didn't win this game, Durant won it, and he won it with Harden scoring just 5 points.
Not really, Durant would not only waste his effort if his teammates weren't contributing, Jeff Green had a good game, he only missed 1 3 point shot attempt and it was really big for the team as he also contributed with 27 big points. Yes, it was Durant who is the top scorer, but we have to credit everyone who is on the court even if they did not contribute well, like Harden. |

Stop thinking that you were late but rather think that there is still an opportunity. Investing in Bitcoin doesn't matter who is first and who is last, what matters most is how we manage our investment because many old investors had not even to grow while newcomers are very aggressive and have a positive result.
@OP, don't make confused yourself about Bitcoin. You can see a lot of people making good returns and that was enough to prove.
We are talking about interest, but if you don't have this thing, you better go and leave crypto out of your mind.

Bear Market has never started in the first place, why do people confuse correction with bear market, we are just in the middle of the year and if you look at the level of funding in the space you will realize that institutional investors are strongly betting on the future of Crypto
Yeah, what happened on the price of every digital currency in the market is just a correction which mean at any time price will go back to it's higher value. It's good thing if you buy coins during tgis temporarry dip to take advantage of some profit. Some have the opposite thinking when seeing the market in correction, they feel they are not safe when they invest as they are afraid that it drops more and lose. Actually, they still live in doubts and worries. To change his kind of mindset is really hard and they will live that forever if they don't open their minds and see the opportunity behind those corrections. |
