Hopefully Don Trollano's career will be better under his original mentor.
NLEX needed a guy who work on both offense and defense with hard work, this is a great acquisition by the NLEX as they lack on defense.

Trollano embraces chance to work anew with primary mentor Guiao
Quote
VETERAN guard Don Trollano feels like he’s starting all over again after being reunited with the mentor who gave him his break in the PBA.

The 29-year-old wingman welcomes his get-together with coach Yeng Guiao after being acquired by NLEX in a complex, three-team trade approved by the league on Thursday.

Trollano has improved tremendously through his first five seasons as a pro since being picked in the second round (No. 15 overall) by Rain or Shine in the 2015 draft.

That's an awesome news  for Trollano, this might be a good chance to work with his former mentor, it won't be hard for both of them to work again.

Coach Yeng knows how Trollano work and with a lots of improvements from this guy, the team will surely benefits from this trade.

His been given this new chance and for sure he won't disappoint he's new family!

He is now reunited with his old coach and he is in a team that has a chance to be in playoffs or even in a championship stage. I like this move, I thought Trollano's talent will just end up with the Blackwater which is not a good team.

He cannot do that, as a player the management has the right to trade if they see they will be getting a better player in exchange. That is purely business, nothing stays in a team forever, unless he will not change and continue to impress the management, in the case of Greg, he was as explosive as he was when during his early years in the Ginebra San Miguel.
I get it thank you, but don't you think that it is a little bit scummy that the player has no say as to what the management decides because I think that it is unfair.
We don't know who is telling the truth, he made his statement then we will have to wait until the Ginebra will make theirs too. It's hard to speculate, the deal is already done, C. Stand going to play with the Ginebra while Slaugher going to North Port, hopefully this will not become a big issue and he will just focus on his new team.


Whatever is the decision of the team and the management, he can't go against what they've planned for.
He already signed a new contract, any violation of the contract will have a serious consequences.

But I'll pass on this one because I am waiting for Manny Pacquiao's fight this year .

This fight is already final while the fight of Manny Pacquiao is still a rumor, we don't know yet if he can have fight this year as Crawford the one he challenge has still no answer or even the promoter has not given a statement regarding the fight.
I thought it was fixed that Canelo and Pacquiao fight.

Pacquiao should fight Canelo not chasing Conor McGregor in a boxing match, that's a perfect fight for the UFC fighters.
I will guess it could be Canelo and Pacquiao in the month of May, but the rumor still a rumor unless there's no official announcement of the fight.

This big event is a big payday for them.

There's no Canelo vs Pacquiao, there's even no rumor for that. It's actually Pacquiao vs Crawford and that was not finalized yet although we have heard from Bob Arum already regarding fight. Also, no one is interested anymore on Pacquiao vs McGregor because McGregor loss on his last fight.
2544  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it safe to invest in BNB now? on: March 10, 2021, 02:48:50 PM
You made profits from holding BNB so just follow the same strategy because if the bull run follows then surely BNB will reach new all time high prices again.But in my opinion its already over sold so it may crash hard if market falls 20% or below due to panic sellers.

The increase in the value of BNB depends primarily on the support and goals of CZ and Binance in relation to this coin. And given the ever-increasing role of BNB in the Binance Smart Chain, we can assume that in the future the price of the coin will increase. I can't predict the maximum price of BNB, but I think that the price should be more than $1000.
Not impossible, BNB started from scratch, CZ, and Binance giving their strong support until such a time that it brought BNB on top 5 coins in the market. People can't imagine that impressive growth and have to expect more from BNB especially this time where ETH gas fee is so high. I don't think it was the advantage of BNB but traders have to choose which one could give them the best and lessen their expenses.

It gonna be a long way to go for BNB to reach $1000 but as I said, it is not impossible as the demand keeps moving on.

Maybe this is the right way...Following is a better way of Learning.
Why we use to watch on Youtube and any trading tutorials is that because we wanted to learn more. We use to watch someone who makes trade and get some ideas out from what they do. This is very important when we start in trading, we can't start with an empty brain, it is certainly be needing someone who guides us and from that, we are able to make our own trading decisions.

This nets team will be showing the retirement of some older stars like Lebron who will realize they can’t beat a team like this one anytime soon.


Lebron will not retire, he can still play and if his team can't make it to the finals or can't beat the Nets, he can still continue to achieve on individual success as he is breaking record in points, and assists of all time. Nets looks good on paper but until proven, I would not expect a lot though.

No hope for EXSCUDO to be on top. We're already 4 years and doing nothing.

For 4 years and we can't even see this coin listed in CMC.. I'm searching the name hoping to at least see it listed in the site but it's still not there.

Devs can't blame if people already loss their trust as the market is getting bigger while this project is left behind.
2548  Economy / Economics / Re: Food prices doubled this year on: March 08, 2021, 01:35:11 PM
In russia prices allweis incrise, every 3-6 months prices in checks are higher and higher, government in russian not control prices, this sheeted government think only about incrise yours revenues, not about developing and fighting with moneyless of sitizens...

In Russia, the situation is different from other countries. The increase in food prices there doesn't surprise me much, because the Russian Ruble has been declining for quite some time. Until 2014, the exchange rate was 1 USD = 30 RUR. The current exchange rate is 1 USD = 74 RUR. It means that the value of RUR has declined by 1.5 times in just 7 years. So the increase in commodity prices there is not very surprising.

In our country there is a meat shortage, the price of pork and chicken has increase by 100% or even more as the suggested retail price is not anymore followed. This is just the start of the economic struggle brought by the pandemic and we will suffer from this increase of the basic needs.

I thought this is only happening in our country but after reading this thread, I realized that there are other countries that are also struggling due to this crisis.

I just want to join paid crypto trading group..anyone pls tell me ,this type of group doing scam or not? and does it work?


We should be careful of trusting different groups that tried to help us. Much better to pick those people who's experience in analyzing with trading several coins. Never trust from any non reliable source, because scammers is really aggressive nowadays to deceive us. Personal coaching is important and that what I've been doing now, I seek advice from my friend who owned huge amount of capital in trading.
A lot of trading tutorials online that could help us to understand how trading works but much better if someone, a friend of yours teaches you, not these groups of scammers. I don't understand why many were still asking for their services besides, we can still learn with them. Oh, these lazy people would like shortcuts and do whatever they say and lose. It surprises us neither because that actually will our future if we keep relying on these people.

Everything can possible if we work hard but it doesn't mean we need to force ourselves to become a trader if we find ourselves not fit this. It is better to let go and find another way to make money.

Sad but true, and besides AFAIK there is still an underground market where BULLDOGS gets  to fight each other, just like on the movies, and yes still have some sort of gambling in that game. People just don't know how to be happy with just themselves, (sigh)
I guess this one is unacceptable, I get that cock fighting is allowed as it's already part of the culture and there's no animal rights for chicken, but these are dogs, they are man's bestfriend, they should no be allowed fighting each other, report it mate and help the government get these criminals. Me, I can't imagine watching this kind of fight and even bet on it.
2551  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Suggest me what to do now! on: March 05, 2021, 03:23:35 PM
Almost all the replies say that you need to reconcile, focus on your trade, learn from your mistakes and take a look at which strategy isn't effective. Because for that long in trading, people will expecting you that you are already an expert in this field, that is too much experience and learning might you have and yet, it is really surprising.

I have to say that, you need to assess yourself. And take a look at the other trader's works and compared them to you. Maybe you can find what is wrong with you or you need to stop trading.
2552  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Never Be in a hurry on: March 05, 2021, 03:00:40 PM
All you are trying to say is avoid FUDs and FOMOs. People have been warning each other about this from the very beginning, but sadly, people still fall for those fear based factors and take bad decisions that they later regret. Some stops investing once they fall for those steps, few people starts to spread negative and hate while the rest learns from their mistakes. The kind of people who learns from their mistakes are the once who actually ends up being successful, while the rest aren't able to move on and regrets their whole life.
It is common to find in those people who never know what is Bitcoin. They usually spreading negative about their bad experience but never know that it was their fault. I don't want to listen to them and neither to listen to their regrets as well.
We actually had sometimes to commit mistakes, making bad decisions but it was not the reason also why we should blame crypto for our losses, Instead, we have to correct such mistakes and make it beneficial to ourselves as it gives us hints what went wrong and to take actions to solve it.

They come in a hurry, they also leave in a hurry because they are so much worried that they will lose everything they've started.
2553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever lost a bet in this way? on: March 05, 2021, 01:58:05 PM
What I do in such situations depends on how I feel and whether I'm there watching the game. If I have a bad feeling about the game and have an option to cash out early, I do it. If I feel like going with the flow and testing my luck until the end, I do it. It's hard to say if I'd prefer to cash out early or not because it's just too situational.
I lost money by not cashing out early. I'm sure there aren't many players who didn't.

True, sometimes we try to have an OCD type of attitude when it comes to strategy in gambling and how to handle its ways. Majority of the time, we will be breaking our rules and just act out on our urges (whether to cash out early, betting big, or just losing it even when there's a clear win-win situation) and I feel the best way to go around it is to accept that we will just do what our heart says, so why not accept it. Then whatever it's the result, we won't regret as we followed what our heart said!

I following our hearts mostly result to a loss, our emotion dictates what we feel if we let that emotion to dictate us, for me, it's wrong because I have a lot of experience that I lose when I follow my heart, I learn that we should have the ability to control our emotion and always follow our mind over the heart.

Game plan is created by our minds, not our hearts.
2554  Other / Off-topic / Re: Corruption and Sports on: March 05, 2021, 01:37:42 PM
You're right but the question is, is it getting better or worse because we know the problem exists for centuries. I feel like we see much less of it than we did in the 70s or 80s. It's easy to test competitors for drugs and it's not like you can throw a match easily with all the cameras watching you from different angles. Digital banking also makes it harder to hide some sudden changes in income.

Actually in the modern game it's easier to test but it's also getting more complicated for athletes to watch their diets now. How many cases in the past have we had including for greats like Messi. Taking some herbal tea even makes it possible to somehow take a banned substance.

Now you can't throw matches easily on the big stage but that makes it all the more easy for corruption to inch into smaller stages where there aren't a thousand different cameras:)

Cameras won't help a lot if the intention is really to rig the games, we will only know if we can read the mind of the players. In sports, point shaving is very popular and it's not easy to detect who are doing this among the players.
2555  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: After Tesla, others began to pay attention to Bitcoin. Is this the future trend on: March 05, 2021, 01:18:16 PM
Something is off. Shouldn't Tesla focus on making better cars instead? $1.5billion is not small money and I need to remind you, Elon didn't pay from his own pocket. This is the shareholders' money he is putting on bitcoin. Also Tesla shares went down a lot after this purchase. So I don't think the Tesla share holders really liked that move. It is one of the most dumped stocks now. Lost more than 20% from its ATH.
well, disappointed with the result because I thought they were good after the purchase, and people expecting a huge impact on the market.

But on the other side, Tesla moves into crypto significantly giving attraction to the other companies to follow. As people heard about Elon Musk supporting Bitcoin, Telsa is buying that huge amount, people will think that this investment could really be true in the future. That is probably the appreciation we might hear.

But what happened to Tesla is an internal problem, might stockholders not really confident about Bitcoin but only just Elon Musk. And this will not affect the price trend.
2556  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't stay on with a wrong trade on: March 05, 2021, 12:58:07 PM
A wrong trade puts the trader at risk if they trade without knowing anything about the market they lose everything and spend the day. A successful trader will never trade without a good market analysis they are at a loss but try to minimize the damage in the next step holds are not limited to one place by constantly analyzing the market the business trades and increases the amount of its own capital. They learn slowly and move forward using their experience wherever the market goes successful traders can take risks. It can't be perfect but at least, we are near to that.
We must have to prepare ourselves before then. Many traders come into crypto trading knowing nothing, they simply know how to buy and sell but the most important is to know when will be the best time to do those things.
Quote
1. Stop the trade:
This is the best option to do. We should not force ourselves if we know that we can't able to perform well in trading. Because the more we got into trading, the chance is also big that we still at lose. Maybe it was common-sense for everyone (and I hope so). May learning will help but we can't imagine how much money we lose before we correct our mistakes.
2557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers - How do you use your signature campaign earnings? on: March 05, 2021, 12:19:23 PM
I personally prioritize the results of my signature campaign for my needs and turn them into fiat to meet my needs, and it all depends on how much I have.
because I sometimes use it for gambling and only for fun and gambling that I understand and can play, and only bet small amounts even though sometimes it is fun and profitable but I am determined not to become an active gambler or addict because I know gambling is very risky and only at at first it's fun and always wins without realizing it, that's how to hypnotize new players to keep playing.

It happened with me a lots of time that when I'm back in gambling after a long break, determined to not gamble huge amount, I generally start to win a lot and this results in me being addicted to gambling again, I don't know how this luck factor plays out, and it happens with newbies as well, there are very less people who lose right on their first gambling bet. It's a mystery I think hehe, it's good to hear that you convert your earnings into cash to meet your needs, which is a good thing which I have also started to do recently with paying off some debts I have.

It's what we called as beginners luck, some win but actually not most gamblers as we don't have a stats for that. However, the fact that gambling sites or casinos gets richer, that means the consistency to win is on their favor and that is because of what we called a "house edge".

As a gambler, we should be aware of that so we can also make the right decision.
2558  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 05, 2021, 11:53:15 AM
Davis would not play, I think I will be with Team Harden if that's what we call it now.

No Davis for Team Lebron and No Durant for Team Durant.

I already stated it, it's Team Durant vs Team Lebron and I think Team Durant has a lot of improve players although team Lebron is already proven a strong players. I think I will back on Team Durant here for a change, I love that Kawhi was in their team, he can defend Lebron James for sure.
2559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao offered $10 million to fight Terence Crawford on: March 04, 2021, 10:31:33 PM

How much is the purse of Manny Pacquioa on the Mayweather fight? I believe he made more or less $100 million in that fight but the purse, I don't know and I am also not sure if it's still Bob Arum who is his promoter that time but one thing I'm certain, he made a ton of money that fight.
It did make tons of money considering that this one is the richest fight in boxing history.
https://tv5.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/29107427/mayweather-pacquiao-revisiting-richest-fight-boxing-history

About purse then he had able to get $120 million on that fight.
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2452517-mayweather-vs-pacquiao-purse-prize-money-payouts-after-main-event-title-fight

So the amount we've been talking on this thread is just too small to compare.


So there's no reason this fight will not happen, or at least Bob will talk to Manny if he can't give that $50 million guaranteed for this fight. Bob been in the business for centuries I believe, I'm sure he is clever enough to make a decision but it's good if we know the status of the fight ASAP so we would not expect a lot and we can move on.
2560  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Forget bounties and Airdrops on: March 04, 2021, 10:17:56 PM
it does make a lot of money but it's not that easy we can do it, this year's bounty doesn't make much money but I still follow it, even in airdrops I still follow because there are still many who make money.  and most importantly my job is to trade.

Accepting the reality is the first step, some just give up because they think we are still in 2017 or 2018 where bounty hunting brings a lot of money, things have change already, more bounty hunters now but with less good projects, however you are absolutely correct, we can still make money and that matters a lot and as long as we don't consider this as our main job, we will not feel upset when we didn't get our expectation.
