Playing in the NBA isn't just exercise, it's extremely high intensity. Especially with the pace the game is played at nowadays.
And also the training that they get from time to time. Their body is their capital as they get into the NBA business as the main players and athletes.
He's 35 years old and I think that's still young but in the league, that's no longer young and near to retirement age.
There are big men who last in the NBA and there are that have been taken away because of injuries (case for example Greg Ogden).

But in case of Aldridge he has a fairly decent career himself when he was in Portland, and maybe his body didn't take as he is getting old wherein it is a fast phased now. For sure he has taken care of his body, that's why the news was a shocker to all of us.
Maybe Aldridge body fails to adjust to the style of play Brooklyn is playing, I have known Aldridge since portland days, and his style of play is posting up,
at the same time, I think it the age, and maybe his heart now has reached his limits and needs to rest, he has a good career run, nothing to be ashamed of,  that all he's the body can give, pushing it further will put his life in a bad situation so I think he did the right thing.

Let's talk about the NYK, they won again, this time against the New Orleans Pelicans.

116-106, that was a 10 point win.

I guess everyone should look at how good this team now, they might be a big suprise in the playoffs and honestly, I'm really impressed with how Randle has improve with the Knicks. What do you think, are they a real threat in the playoffs?
I don't think they will be a threat in the playoffs, they will be eliminated in the first round 4-1 I think, they don't have players that can compete with other players, they don't have much fire power to compete, they maybe need another year and some star players to lead the team with Julius, I like the team buys they have no much especially if they will have to face the nets, it will be a walk in the park.

really how can you say that? I think we don't have clue when will it come but one thing is for sure, try to profit on your holdings and don't hold long term if you think it will come, many have failed because of long term mindset, the best thing is to try to take advantage of the bull market so that in a bear market you will again collect coins that have the possibility to go up when the bull market came again, it's like working every day, it will be just a cycle but no one knows when.

That word ethereum going to die, simply will not happen, why? because there are lots of things and application running in the chain, for that to happen there is something wrong or there is no one uses Ethereum chain, but in reality even there are some problems like gas fee, which is not yet resolved there are still companies that believe in ethereum, and if that happens there will be a massive loss that will happen.

What does it mean? it means there could be exntesion on the MECQ if the cases will still not drop.
maybe @Sanitough he is talking about the entire Philippines.

The number of cases doesn't drop down if we talked about the entire Philippines and the most hotspots are on NCR Bubble Plus (Manila, Laguna, Rizal, Bulacan, Cavite). And the bad news, there's an increasing number of cases outside the NCR Plus so there's no such thing as numbers are being dropped.
https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1418134/covid-19-cases-rising-outside-ncr-plus-bubble
This isn't really a good news, but probably those who are living in the province would not feel it because the restriction is not as strict with the big cities with bigger population.

By the way, what's your input guys to Raymond Almazan's statement that his Meralco team should also be considered as one of the contenders in the upcoming conference.

I think it's right, Meralco once went into the Finals against Ginebra IIRC, and they have added some players that could help their campaign, I think they are really serious and Almazan has been a big help for this team.
I have to be honest with this, no matter what happens even if you put a super team against genebra there is only one way you can defeat them if you face them in the finals, is to bury them with 20 point lead every game, or else you can't win against them, I'm not speculating but refs are leaning to them, seen it with my own eyes watching the game, there is no way you can defeat them in the series, extend your lead to win.

^^ Yes, Jamal Murray injury update: Nuggets star guard out indefinitely with torn ACL in left knee.

It's a big blow to Denver so its Jokic that will need to carry the team and others needs to step up. They are sitting comfortably in the 4th place so definitely they can make the playoffs. But it will be a struggle without Murray so let's see how far they can go.

The timing of acquiring Gordon, the Joker still have him and Porter,
those explosives players can provide the help that Jokic needs.

It's a different situation once playoffs started and without Jamal they will have a tough competitions through out,
but they've got some good role players to cover him and provide quality minutes.

How it won't take long and Jamal able to recover from this injury.
another player injured, I feel bad for him, he is getting better and better his performance last year was great competing with LeBron James, truly his game elevate, they have a chance to again face a team in the finals with their team, I guess we need to wait another year, and I hope he came back stronger, good luck to the nuggets.

Speaking of burning, my heart aches each time I look at BNB. That thing has shot up by over 100 USD in just 2 days!
the price of BnB during 2017 is like .1 USD, nobody had an interest during those time with the site not that perfect, slow, and a bit laggy, now the token is in demand and is mostly using especially the fee is cheaper than ethereum, of course, the price will go up, also with the help of burning percentage of the coin, we could see the price rise maybe 1000 to 2000 USD I think in the future.

I don't think they can pass the all-time high mark, issue with SEc is still on the horizon, until they can clear everything, there will be still doubted, people will still hesitate if they can win, and also i think there is only a manipulation in price since they have spread the news that they already pass the sec issue, but in other news they only settle it partially, and there will be more to come so until then I'm not gonna ride with Xrp.
269  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 14, 2021, 11:37:53 AM
If the current roster can stretch a bit more, while waiting for their stars, LeBron James and Anthony Davis, then they can definitely salvage 5th spot. They are 3 games ahead of Portland who losses to Celtics today.
The Lakers need only two wins to overtake the Nuggets and move up to 4th place, but the next five matches will probably be hard for them. And it will be unexpected if the Lakers show the same impressive performance against the Jazz as they showed against the Nets a few days ago.

If they can imitate that same game like how they beat the Nets, it's very possible for them to take the 4th spot.
Every game Lakers needs to win, the strategy they use against the Nets may not be applicable on different opponent so we can't expect that they'll immitate the same strategy.

We can't really say as Lakers are fcomposed of talented players, they managed to win against the Nets with KD and Kyrie playing,  also Aldridge is their plus all those role players aside from Jordan and Harden if I'm not mistaken, Kuzma needs to step up and show to his old Buddy (Clarkson) that he also improved his level.
Kuzma is good but he needs tso be more consistent with his game, Clarkson has a better stats this season, he will win the 6th man of the year for sure, while Kuzma maybe subject on some criticism due to his inconsistency.
simply they need to get better every game since playoffs are getting near the other teams starting to step on the pedal for a spot in the playoffs, they need more consistency like others said, because it will be tougher in the playoffs it will not be a walk in the park for the lakers this year, teams will give them a hard time and earn every game until the finals.

Nets vs TWolves game postponed.
Quote
NEW YORK – The National Basketball Association announced today that in light of the tragic events in the Minneapolis area yesterday, tonight’s game between the Brooklyn Nets and the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Center has been postponed.  The decision to postpone was made by the NBA after consultation with the Timberwolves organization and local and state officials.

Our thoughts remain with the family and friends of Daunte Wright during this difficult time.
https://www.nba.com/news/nets-timberwolves-game-postponed-official-release

Not again. I don't believe the kind of reasoning the police had given.
How could you mistake a gun for a taser? How about the safety pin? Is it also the same?
This kind of events might postpone a lot of NBA games again for the Black Movement and be seen by the US government again.
I thought everything was a bit on a calm state. But no, white supremacy will never be erased.
That is really sad, maybe the officer had panic and pull the wrong weapon, but I was thinking, the gun and a taser are different, you were right something is wrong, because a gun is heavy than a taser, and will instantly feel that its a gun, unless there is a conspiracy, or he may be just want to warn the person, we don't know the actual situation but they have body cam, if the officer really did it wrong he needs to leave his job.
271  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Low volume coins good for investment now? on: April 13, 2021, 07:15:53 AM
not necessarily its a good investment, you need to look at the market cap of the coin, the company and the product they have, there are lots of things to consider not only the low volume, people or group can create a low volume with no purpose or whatsoever , it might be scam or scheme to lured people who are just looking for low volume to invest and thats a bad idea in investing.
272  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 13, 2021, 02:07:35 AM

Davis will return against Utah or Dallas. Lebron against Denver or Clippers. That is my prediction. If they gonna miss those games, Lakers will drop further on the leaderboard.

Could be or it could not. If they can sustain a W against the Knicks and Hornets, they'll still hold on to their current position. If they can't they'll probably fall in the 6th or 7th spot when they continue lossing against the Celtics and further teams ahead of that match.
The Lakers really need to have Davis back as the playoffs is fast approaching. Although which playoffs spot they land doesn't matter as long as they come up healthy in the post season.

Hmm, not sure about them somewhat need to play just because they are going to fall on 6th or 7th spot. Lakers should know this, they should allow both to play if they are healthy, not just because of the current position that they have, they have to look long term here.

Maybe they will let the current team run as long as they can and will only play Davis if he is fully healed and healthy. No need to rush their superstar players, yes we know that falling to 6th or 7th spot will be a tough one as you will face a top seed, but nevertheless if Lebron and AD comes healthy and fresh they will have a good chance to upset those top seed teams.
They should allow both players to play when they are 100% ready I think they will make it to the playoffs even without playing AD and Lebron, also they should not let Andre play as he did in the nets, since he is coming out from a foot injury, he should only put 50% since they are waiting for  LeBron and AD , its to careless if he will get injured again, i would like to see them full force in the playoffs.

Cone sees Slaughter flourishing with NorthPort: 'He needs the game to be built around him'

Just to let him feel upset on the trade, lol.. The fact that they let him go, it means they don't need him anymore as they are not satisfied with his performance, I'm not sure if that statement is really serious.
That’s how you tell the public so you can still be good, trade is not just letting other teams to flourish a player that only means he’s not performing anymore and you have to look for more players that can be traded against your own player. Anyway, this is basketball after all we saw many trades already and let’s see if Slaughter will really perform this time.
Slaughter is a decent player, he will perform the same as when he is in genebra, although his years spent on the team was not that spectacular, they just get him for rebounds, besides I don't see any progress on his plays same as usual every conference, him being traded is a good decision for the franchise, to get better players, what I don't like is that genebra is getting all the stars in the league, I mean who on earth will trade a star player for a bunch of old bench players, there is something wrong with that, genebra is tanking every conference getting all the great players from a sister team, just to chase a championship, which they can't get if they won't do that, the PBA should do something about the situation, of what genebra is doing.

I'll go with Tron since there are lots of projects in tron that are being made, at the same time, fee's for transferring like usdt is almost free, I am expecting 1 USD price for this coin since Justin is so active, we can see all the updates regarding the coins, we might not see the value now but in the near future, it will be worth it.

Actually, no one knows when will it end or stop at the same time we are not even sure if what is happening is already a bull run, or there is more to come maybe it's just getting started, since the price of bitcoin is still going up at the moment we are already heading to 70K USD, means it's just getting started in my opinion, so if you really are investing, don't just look at the price, look on what the token has to offer, because at the end of the day, those token or coin that is useless are going back to zero, and those who have functions and usefulness is going to stay.

Victor Oladipo injury update: Heat guard to miss Miami's four-game road trip after hurting knee Thursday
X-ray results was negative. Next is MRI.
The real problem would be what the Heat will be up against while they check Oladipo's knee.
4 road game against Trail Blazers, Suns, Nuggets, and Timberwolves. They need all the help they could get and they just lost one.
They are in 6th, Celtics and Knicks are just in their tail aiming for that safe spot. They would not want to have a losing streak this time.
That's alarming since the playoffs are near, they don't want any star players gone missing during the playoffs, I saw when oladipo leave the game, but hoping that it will be just minor, I want to see what will he do in the playoffs with butler, nets is the wall for them in the finals, and I want to see a rematch with the defending champion who also has lots of injuries especially the star players.
279  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Whats the best way/method to learn crypto? on: April 10, 2021, 02:09:55 AM
I think there are three things to learn crypto

  • Read books
  • Research
  • Application/Experience]
Three things are the ways for you to learn them
Read books about cryptocurrency, how they work, what is the function of every coin how it process
Making a research about a certain coin, through articles and news,
and to experience it like if you are into trading, or through an application where a certain coin helps and work through the blockchain
there are lots of ways but I think this three are very important as a start.
280  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 09, 2021, 03:27:31 AM
let's see what will happen in the playoffs, sometimes the top teams are overthrown by the 8th seed, or in the second round,

Possibly in the West but I doubt in the East. Nets can handle all teams in their conference in a series match and just imagine how the 8th seeded will survive the stacked Brooklyn Nets.

Nets have a clean 7-0 record overall this season against teams sitting currently on 6th to 8th (Heat, Celtics, Knicks, respectively) in the Eastern Conference standings.

But who knows, there's another Miami Heat 2020 be like in the making that will surprise all once playoffs come.
yes the team is solid, sixers are one of the teams and bucks, who knows what will happen, just like what the heat did last season, they shock the other teams, although the nets are really looking unbeatable, we might expect an upset if the nets suddenly in a bad position, like ejections or injuries, but I don't want it to happen to any team, let's just wait and see what will happen in the west and east.
