LeBron is having a great game but the Lakers are getting destroyed in the paint. They’re being outscored 2 to 1 in the key and outrebounded by 10. All this and Dwight Howard had as many rebounds as anyone with only 1/4 of the minutes played… This is painful to watch. I think Vogel’s days are numbered. He might not be coaching the Lakers in the playoffs if he can’t figure out how to take this roster to a better than 500 record.
For sure Schroder is laughing right now at the Lakers with what happened Cheesy.

5 of the Celtics are in double digits and Tatum just have a good night with this. 37 points and 11 rebounds and he is the top rebounder in the Celtics and the top rebounder in the Lakers is Davis with only 6. I mean I agree with what you said that they destroyed the Lakers inside. 56 points in the paint by the Celtics while Lakers only has 36. Lakers has taller players and yet this happen and their defense is horrible that they allow the Celtics to score 130 points :X. It seems that we are expecting too much with the Lakers this season don't we? 

Exactly, they refused to sign Schroder with the amount he demanded  and look at Westbrook now, he isn't the superstar the Lakers are expecting, there's no chemistry and they are even better before the trade.  Embarrassed

Now the loyalty of Romeo will be tested here. Will he accept the offer and eat the words that he said that he has a life debt to SMC or it will be the other way around.

Lets see how this one goes. Its starting to have an effect already. Many are expecting I think that this will have a domino effect not only for young players but for professional players in the PH as well and we don't know when this will end since it seems that Japan likes to get Filipino Imports Cheesy. He can accept this offer but his name might get affected but either way, its his decision to go there or stay. It will just be harder for him since he spit those words like "he has a life debt to SMC therefore, he will not accept any offers from there".

He doesn't need that loyalty; he needs the money Grin Roll Eyes with how things change in his life now, better to think for a much better future, his career will be more effective if he will play outside the country, I used to remember when the call for him to play for Gilas and the coaching staff just take it for granted, not saying that it's not SMB alone but for sure if that said offer is for real, he should grab it now.

He already gives SMB his best from the past games that he played. I'm sure seeing his teammates leaving will also affect his
decisions.

We will know once he or the SMB managements will announce anything about this rumor,.

Romeo should take that offer now that he is still healthy, once he is prone to injuries, that offer will be gone and he will stay in the PBA for the rest of his life, and just like Cabagnot and Santos, he will also be traded because the team will never be loyal to him, all they do is for the interest of their business, not their personal relationships to their players.

Good thing is that the offer is still on, I heard that rumors before already about a huge contract but Romeo did not take it, maybe he would change his mind as we have a lot of Filipino players already playing in Japan for a greener pasture. Romeo has to be smart, if he plays at least 3 years in Japan, he can retire early because the salary is huge and with the money he'll receive, he can already secured his future after retirement.

Never trust a signal online as that is not reliable.

If they know how to be profitable, they don't need to share the signal because they can easily make themselves rich in trading.
you are a newbie, I understand that, but you have to be smart and be clever enough as newbies are usually the victims of scammers in the space, not saying that signals are scams but if you easily believe in them, then most likely you'll easily believe on scams and hypes too.
2784  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tommy Fury vs Jake Paul on: November 19, 2021, 02:06:42 PM
there is a recent update on their fight. looks like jake paul has been given an advantage in the fight(I am not surprised really). according to the article, the weight catch for the fight will be 192lbs. which was similar/closer to the weights where jake paul previously fought. as for Tommy Fury, the heaviest weight he has fought in is 189lbs which is still 3 pounds lighter than 192lbs.

https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/boxing/jake-paul-might-just-been-22207992

Good for Jake Paul because he is currently the underdog now in betting lines, but still I would bet on Fury and I just hope that the odds will swing in favor of Jake Paul so I don't have to take the Fury as the favorite.

How is it different from Axie Infinity?

I think NFT is more popular now because if that kind of platform, you play and you earn.
Not sure if there are still a lot of people making money from playing games because Axie Infinity's popularity seems to be going down in our country.
2786  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will MEME coin rule the world? on: November 19, 2021, 10:16:11 AM
If Meme coin will rule the world then probably the crypto world would become a safe haven for scammers.

It's enough to witness at least 2 meme coins that are enjoying their position now of becoming a billion-dollar project, but hopefully, investors will be more careful in choosing a project to support, they should look at the real use case and its potential in the future, otherwise, crypto will be branded as a scam which we don't like to see going forward.
2787  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot focast on: November 19, 2021, 09:46:13 AM
I think you misspelled the word forecast.

But according to the study, the house edge of a slot machine is around 5% to 10%, therefore there's no way you can win in the long run. This type of game is only good if you are lucky, or just trying to have fun, and that house edge will certainly make your forecast wrong most of the time.

Quote
The price is right
The house edge for slot machines typically falls between 5% and 10%, with most machines delivering a payback percentage in the 90% to 97% range. (If it's 90%, the casino's take—and the player's loss—is 10% of the coin in, for example.) But how can casino operators determine the best house advantage for their bottom line within that range? "It's really a pricing issue, because it's a unique product," said Lucas. "With real slots, the price isn't marked anywhere."

Maybe answer first the accusation or prove that you are paying, otherwise don't waste people's time here as we have a lot of more important things to do. There's no room for scammers here, $30 a day is only attractive on paper if an employer would just get your effort for free.
2789  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is it the end of crypto? on: November 19, 2021, 04:00:08 AM
And the dump continues.

24 hours low per https://www.binance.com/en/trade/BTC_USDT is $55,600... Are we gonna say welcome back $40k?

We aren't expecting this to happen as we are optimistic to see a new ATH by December, and some even predict that bitcoin will hit $100k by the end of December but it looks like the opposite did happen. To you mate, don't think it's the end of crypto as this bleeding will eventually end for a better tomorrow. The more you panic, the more you make a bad decision, so just chill.
2790  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Fantom done? on: November 18, 2021, 01:35:28 PM
Every coin is dropping now because bitcoin is dropping, but it's not enough to think that it's already done.

Fantom has been here for a while already and its ATH was $3 while the current price is only $2, so there's no reason to think it's done. Also, it's 24 hours trading volume is over $500 billion, which doesn't look like a dead coin.

Don't drink too much coffee so you'll not panic,  dump and pump are normal in the crypto space, that's why we call it a high volatile market.

2792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: November 18, 2021, 12:25:50 PM

What can you say guys about Christian Standhardinger playing for the Japan B-League after the PBA Governors Cup?

For me, a good decision. First, he is not fit the Ginebra system (although can be fixed with more games playing at Ginebra). Second, he will be utilized more in the B League, and lastly, career-wise, the paycheck is much better compared to playing at the PBA.

I'm just thinking that "what if", the Barangay able to snatch a title at the Governor's Cup. Will that change Standhardinger's plan to go to B-League? A big compensation is an assurance if Brgy. Ginebra makes it to the championship.
I'm trying to find some articles or sources with this news but I can't find one. Kindly share the link here so that we can read the news because this is a huge news.

Well, lets face it. B-league is a better league compare to PBA in terms of salary and in competition. This is the reason why Filipino Players opted to play at B-league. They are saying that they want experience but aside from that, the money that they will get playing there would be much better than playing in PBA.

Any player that comes from PBA and will play to B-league would always be a good decision and this is one of them. I mean he might play better there and aside from that, he will get more money. I think that we already expected this outcome after Thirdy playing in B-league. Him playing in B-league created a domino effect against young Filipino Basketball players and those professional players as well. Now I don't know what will Ginebra do to let CStan stay but.... I'm thinking that PBA is in trouble right now because more and more players are opting to play outside PH instead of playing here.

That's still a rumor for now but I have a feeling that he will leave the PBA because he is not making a name in the PBA, I mean our expectation from him is not met, so he can choose to make a name in Japan and make a bigger salary at the same time.

I'm sure lots of teams will be interested on him.

But this could possibly happen because C. Stand is a decent player, he was hype in the PBA because he is making his name in international competition, maybe he is just not fit with this current team and he can always find a team that would appreciate him and will make him better. The C Stand that we once think will be a dominant big man failed us, that's the reality.
2793  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Cryptocurrency be a Global Currency in the Future? on: November 17, 2021, 02:03:34 PM
With high volatility, it could still become a global currency but not the type of currency that is widely used for daily transactions. As of now, the majority of cryptocurrencies are viewed as an asset or investment because people expect to gain profit when they buy it with fiat.

Also, government regulation is very vital, if some country does not regulate bitcoin, then most likely it will only be limited for use in some countries.
One major country has already banned bitcoin, and that is China, with billions of population, they are a big loss on the adoption of crypto.
2794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 17, 2021, 01:19:57 PM
If they'll meet in the NBA Finals, then we already have an idea that the Warriors has a good chance of winning even if the Nets are the heavy favorites now to win the championship.
Hmmmm that's an interesting match up but tbh with just under 20 games and teams are still getting started that still an understatement. Good thing if they do match up at the Finals but still doubting both teams to even make it though, but same as you I'd bet on the Warriors, they're that explosive
I can't conclude yet because it's only their first encounter in the season and games in the playoffs are quite different compared to the regular season. Warriors do have some struggle as well, they are not a perfect team although they are the number 1 team in the West now.

Quote
......and who knows Thompson is already playing its best aagin when that day comes.
Not sure about this yet, though we are hype a bit on the return of Klay Thompson but we have not seen him play yet, so we could not make a conclusion whether he is healthy or not.
2795  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 17, 2021, 12:04:52 PM
Not only coach Nash, Kerr also knows Durant very well as he coach him before so he was able to do the right strategy to limit him.
Gonna agree with that, Kerr is a great coach, he already won multiple championships while Nash has not proven anything yet in the NBA as a coach.
Last season they lose against the Bucks but that's understandable because Kyrie was injured and Harden is not 100%.

But this season, both star players are healthy and yet they cannot take down the Warriors.
I would say it's a fair match as Warriors missed Thompson while Nets missed Kyrie, but Warriors was the better team at that game.

This is their first encounter but most likely Nets will not struggle next time as they already saw the play design against them and they'll certainly make an adjustment to beat the Warriors.
If they'll meet in the NBA Finals, then we already have an idea that the Warriors has a good chance of winning even if the Nets are the heavy favorites now to win the championship.
2796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: November 17, 2021, 11:12:23 AM
~~~Well, its still in talks so there is no assurance that he will really change one of the SMC coaches but if he will I think it will be Magnolia Cheesy.
Magnolia's coach and Coach Compton probably have the same style, so I'm not sure if he will be the new coach of the Magnolia, besides, these are just rumors, and if he is really good, then why would Alaska let him go? I don't see any sense in why coaches of SMC teams will be replaced when they are still a competitive team.
2797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: November 17, 2021, 08:05:40 AM
Lots of us made a decision betting on the Nets at home, they are just -2.5 at home and we didn't realize it's too easy so it could be a trap.
But anyway, we can always bounce back tomorrow and win our losses today.

Congrats to those who are profitable today, we only have 3 games so we cannot have a lot of choices.

Nets -10.5 against the Cavaliers tomorrow, will we take the nets or pass?
2798  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin bull market back on: November 16, 2021, 01:43:10 PM
Bitcoin dump today and we are tested again. After hitting a new ATH, bitcoin dropped below $60k this month and it has not recovered fully yet. If this is just a short-term dump, we should see the price bounce back tomorrow and bitcoin start rising again.

And by the way, this could be another news that could add to shake the market.

2799  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dogecoin - a joke or a way to make money? on: November 16, 2021, 01:07:19 PM
Dogecoin may created as a joke but after that, its potential was start increasing and with effort of doge team, it was able to archive good position in crypto market without hype. Lots of people was using doge for cheap fee since it created. I must say, dogecoin provided lots of opportunities for us and make new Millionaire! Even after end of hype, dogecoin still stable on its position. It might be dump due to lack of support and good management but still it can be considered as top coins

If that is the main purpose which is to provide cheap transactions then I guess the purpose is gone now because DOGE coin price is already high and therefore transaction is not cheap anymore. Actually, it's not the team who made an effort to pump DOGE but it's Elon Musk because he uses his influence to hype the coin and now already in the top 10 in terms of marketcap.
