Dirk is incomparable to Harden.

But we'll see if Harden proves himself right and did the right thing. There are players that would prove themselves did the right decision and before they retire, they've got at least an achievement with their former team.

Let's see if Harden is just all talk as he said he's gonna get the ring now with his new form. That's quite of a word but everyone of them has got that inspiration and boosting words for themselves to show the fans.

That is some big words for a guy, but I think he meant it when he said it and in my opinion, James Harden is very serious in what he is talking about right now with all this trade and talk about the move, I think he will settle his years for Philadelphia 76ers depending on the result this next season, I really wish the 76ers will have a solid run to lock themselves on the Final game of the NBA,


I wouldn't say no players would take cuts, I mean Durant took a cut when he was playing for Warriors and he even took a cut from his shooting as well, in other teams he played before he got there, (OKC) he was shooting a lot more and he was given the green light to shoot anytime he just wants to, nobody ever questioned him, back in the warriors he wasn't like that, he shot a lot less, and his points per game dropped a lot because he was with other players who scored a lot as well.

So, he took a cut, but also played less. All in all, if you want to be with other superstars then you are going to have to take a cut and get paid a bit less but you would have a higher chance to win.

Well, it will surely depend on what a player wants if he doesn't want to cut off his salary then expect a limited number of good players on the team, if he wants a ring then he needs to sacrifice a bit of his salary, just like Harden, James Harden really want to get something in what he'd sacrifice and I really like that in him, he will want his legacy to be build up more than the money he will receive, for now how I wish they could get players that are suitable on Embiid and Harden's play style,



Yeah, probably the Warriors just troll with Durant and the Nets,  Grin

For me it's not a good move for them to get Durant again, I mean they have won this season without him already with their core and Wiggins and Poole and the rest of the supporting team members (although majority of them has since then move already).

Teams are still still actively pursuing Durant, the last time I check is Phoenix, Heat and Utah.

For me, I really like what they did, and especially what Bob Myers has said that they are good with their current line-up right now, and if that is not something for the Nets or Kevin Durant to be upset and I don't really know what, for me getting Kevin Durant will likely get them nowhere again, they are good management that can surely train young guns to explore their talent and potential and I think the Golden State Warriors want their own diamond to be chipped,

Regarding Adeyemi i don't know why in the last few matches Edin Terzić placed him to several different position most likely as a winger and Adeyemi still cannot playing as he expected maybe because he still required time to adapt or he played not as his real position and for striker position Dortmund only have several players but only Marco Reus who can scoring more than 10 goals last season and i do agreed with you that Terzic should give Adeyemi more minutes to play as a striker not midfielder position

If you are referring to the Club Friendlies game against Villarreal and Karim Adeyemi is not in his usual position, I think he is not used to the chemistry of Dortmund play that is why Marco Reus is their main goaler because he is used to Dortmund kind of play well, I think they are feeding tips to Adeyemi to get familiar with that or they are controlling him for the championship Dortmund might be cautious on what Adeyemi can really do there are plays that need to be hidden until the start of the next season of the Bundesliga,


I think so too. Dortmund may have a lot of talented players in their squad. But at the moment they do not have an experienced striker. So if they can sign Luis Suárez without spending extra money, it will definitely be profitable for them. Looking forward to seeing what Dortmund coach Edin Terzić decides. It looks like we will see Suarez in a Dortmund jersey next season.

They surely needed more talented players, but even with their new players they will need some games to deal with team chemistry so they can have a knowledge of the gameplay procedures, it will not be that easy even if Suarez landed on Dortmund to play he need to stay on a training camp to prepare and get used to Dortmund's way of football, but I guess in just 2 to 3 games all new players for every team,


If indeed this transfer happens then Mathys Tel will become the world's most expensive young player ever bought. I also see that the price of mathys is very expensive, even though its potential has not been seen, but I'm sure bayern talent scouts must have other considerations so they can charge mathys to this high.

I think Bayern Munich has the resources to do that if they are doing such a thing then they may be in desperation to get Mathys Tel, or they have seen a talent like no other for the kid, Bayern Munich is just keeping a tight hand when it comes to other players but if they saw something in this kid that could be a potential in the future then good for them, but if they are wrong about it, then it is their loss,

A lot of unexpected things have happened with the UFC Fight Night London and a lot were upset with what happened in the main event, I also was upset, and like I said I really want Tom Aspinal to win against Curtis Blaydes even though I have bet for Curtis Blaydes to win, but I haven't seen the true potential of Aspinal, and a sure rematch might happen but move forward to a new event,

Oezdemir won quite a landslide victory, Paul Craig could not do almost anything, he tried to flunk Oezdemir and turn the fight into wrestling, but he didn’t succeed at all, besides he always caught a couple of good punches when trying to do it.

Krylov got a very confident victory, he was much faster and stronger, Gustafsson is no longer capable of anything, it's time to take a well-deserved rest. Now I would like to see Krylov with stronger opponents.

Pretty much Paul Craig's wrestling was not good enough for Oezdemir to always break out and give Craig a punch combo, pretty much when Craig lock Oezdemir's feet Volkan Oezdemir just keeps getting away like it was nothing at all talk about badass, pretty much every advantage was for Volkan Oezdemir from those accurate strikes then the volume just keeps on rising while Paul Craig's was focus on unsuccessful takedowns and grappling it was out to naught

Nikita Krylov VS Alexander Gustafsson fight was pretty much entertaining to watch, Krylov was very confident really confident, at first he was calm and collected then when he made Gustafsson knockdown he aim in confidently giving him a barrage of punches keeping the brawl getting Gustafsson down


Alexander Gustafsson needs to retire for good as he cannot take a punch now and Nikita Krylov smashed him from the start.

Let me refrase that, Alex never sgould have returned from retirement. Even tho he was in retirement for what, a year tops, he seems to have lost a step or two and his decission to go HW after the Smith fight was a terrible idea. The best thing he did was to go for retirement when he was on top predicting he would have a hard time with the newcomers.

He surely underestimated Nikita Krylov that is for sure, and to be mauled like that he should have thought this up if he's ever to come back or just retire for good, he still needs more training that is for sure,

For two weeks in the UFC, great misfortunes have been going on in the matches. Ortegan's shoulder was injured today, Tom Aspinal injured his knee, nobody expected it, they didn't even fight. He's got a bad knee injury, I know Brian Ortegada is in need of surgery. I hope Tom's injury isn't serious, it was a very unfortunate situation. I hope he returns in a short time. It was a very easy win for those betting on Curtis Blaydes. I wanted to watch this fight, like everyone else, I'm wondering which one is better, frankly, I hope this fight is set again.

Well, in my opinion in Ortega's case that was really his bad shoulder the recently injured shoulder that he has, while in Aspinal's case maybe he has it when the fight started but was not aware of it, that is why it snapped when he just kick Blaydes, that is why I am saying what Curtis Blaydes was made off, for Aspinal's knee to break, and for sure these two will need a surgery, and wish them to a fast recovery, for Tom Aspinal VS Curtis Blaydes a rematch is what the fans want when Tom Aspinal finally recovers,

Another happy kid here just like on the previous results it is very consistent to bet for LCK maybe I will try in the other Leagues but I am still researching and studying team's play patterns and watching various live streams to get familiar

But here is my result for yesterday's game in League of Legends Champions Korea 2022

Freecs VS Sandbox Gaming MAP 0 - 2 - WIN

Freecs is playing in the best efforts possible but with no luck, because SANDBOX is just too much for them, with Map 1 game stat of 60k gold, 17 kills, and 7 towers SANDBOX destroyed Freecs in game 1 while Freecs just has 49.6k gold, 7 kills and no towers to destroy, while in Map 2 Freecs have upped their game and did their very best but SANDBOX did a different approach and not let a 1 win for Freecs, with Map 2's game stat of 88.1k gold, 11 kills and 11 towers for SANDBOX while 80.6 gold, 12 kills and 5 towers for Freecs having many kills didn't solve their problem against SANDBOX, that is why my bet for Correct map score done it again,
 
Hanwha Life Esports VS Gen.g Esports MAP 0 - 2 - WIN

Gen.G is just another level versus Hanwha Life Esports and has no chance of getting a Map, and on Map, 1 game stat for this game are 60k gold, 19 kills, and 8 tower for Gen.G while 42.8k gold, 2 kills, and No tower for Hanwha, while on Map 2 the game stat was 55.4 gold, 10 kills, and 9 towers while Hanwha Life Esports has 46.3k gold, 7 kills, and 2 towers pretty Hanwha has no luck in winning 1 Map that is why I got another luck with Correct map score of 0 - 2 again and a win on Gen.G Esports against Hanwha,

2886  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: RUIZ VS ORTIZ SUN, SEP 04, 2022 10PM ET EASTERN TIME/ on: July 24, 2022, 01:52:07 PM
I think this will be an exciting match-up for both Andy Ruiz and Luiz Ortiz has a good record both have more than 30 wins and both have only 2 losses, this is the 1st time these two would fight, to simply put it Andy Ruiz for his size has the speed in those punches and has accuracy as well that would like to be his advantage but for me, Luiz Ortiz got the power, he can simply put out Ruiz with just a good combination this could be very difficult to predict fight in my opinion

Andy Ruiz's great fight in my opinion was his win against Anthony Joshua back on Jun 1, 2019, it was a very great fight from Ruiz Anthony Joshua has the height and reach advantage but Andy Ruiz is pushing Joshua away, and I think that is very legitimate, that Andy Ruiz surely has the upper hand, on their rematch that could be a win for Ruiz but yeah he underestimated Joshua in their rematch,

Luiz Ortiz's great fight was with Charles Martin king kong was knockdown by Martin in the 1st round and so Charles Martin thought he can get the upper hand but Luiz Ortiz was having the advantage over rounds 4 to 6 but in Round 4 Ortiz was dropped down again but was smiling again it's like he is saying OK good job while on round 6 Ortiz got a good shot on Martin he was wobbled on the 2nd knockdown of the round 6, then the referee stops the fight

For me based on their performance, I think I like Andy Ruiz's technique with that fast pace shots I think he can get a clean hit on Luiz Ortiz,
2887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: July 24, 2022, 10:51:07 AM

yes you are right suarez is not included in the list of criteria for dortmund players. actually dortmund already has Donyell, Karim Adeyemi, and Youssoufa Moukoko, but experienced figures up front are clearly needed to face the competition next season,

I think Dortmund is very aware of the problems that are being faced by their club with Haller's absence being diagnosed with a tumor.
although luis suarez does not represent what dortmund want from a striker but is a very good opportunity to bring in one of the best finishers of all time on a short term contract, suarez can be an emergency option for dortmund without spending more money as a dowry, because suarez's status  free transfer I think it's a good opportunity for an emergency option.

For now, the thing that is sure for Dortmund and players that are added to their roster is Sébastien Haller, from Ajax Karim Adeyemi, from RB Salzburg, Nico Schlotterbeck, from SC Freiburg, Salih Özcan from  FC Köln, Niklas Süle from Bayern Munich, Marcel Lotka from Hertha BSC, Alexander Meyer from Jahn Regensburg, Ansgar Knauff from Eintracht Frankfurt, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens from B. Dortmund U19, and Tom Rothe from B. Dortmund U19 and right now I don't see a Luis Suarez on their rosters for now maybe in the future because this is all the talks in the social media and news in there spread like wildfire, and because Sebastien Haller can not play for the next season and it was stated that Haller is now in the injury list,



I think Karim Adeyemi would likely fill out his shoe, for the moment, I have seen the play for Adeyemi and the boy has a brilliant talent for passing and scoring you can surely count him in, I think if Dortmund can make him improve in their training camp then he will likely be one of the great goalers in the Bundesliga not like Lewandowski but still a worth player to have,

This is a special transfer: Mathys Tel!
He is 17 years old and is going to FC Bayern. There is an agreement between FC Bayern and Mathys Tel. But Stade Rennes wants almost 30 million euros for him, which is extreme for such a young player. His market value of 2 million euros is not realistic according to the rumours. He is also a national player for France.

As a young athlete pretty much a national player for France I think that value is worth his value, and with his young age, he can surely still has a ceiling to fill up, and if Bayern Munich really gets this young player and I think it is already clear for  Mathys Tel to set foot for Bayern Munich and right now the list of Bayern Munich new rivals are

Bright Arrey-Mbi from FC Köln, Malik Tillman from Rangers, Gabriel Vidovic, from FC Bayern II, Alexander Nübel from Monaco, Noussair Mazraoui and Ryan Gravenberch from Ajax, Sadio Mané from Liverpool and Matthijs de Ligt from Juventus, I really think they really get what they really want here and in addition for Mathys Tel this could be a great success on those arrivals for Bayern Munich,

2888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 24, 2022, 09:23:19 AM

As a knick fan I love me some Jamal Crawford but I tend to agree.  There are plenty of vets that can still ball but in the backcourt position if you are a step slow on defense than in your earlier years it diminishes your value.  Outside of a select few this is a young man's game and I want mobile guards for sure.  Lakers trying to do anything they can if they sign Crawford up.

Pretty much Jamal Crawford is already retired I think he can already feel it in his system but why are the Lakers offering him to play again, I think there is no further news about it, but I think even though Jamal Crawford can still play basketball he is not in his prime anymore, in my opinion, this is just some bad decision for the Los Angeles Lakers to do, if they can not recruit anyone anymore they should focus in training and giving their younger teams a chance to show their playing skills, just like what the Golden State Warriors is doing I think they are exposing their players to get more experience and to show off what they have, and because as the saying goes experience is the best teacher,

Wow James Harden did it. He declined the 47 million dollars option in his existed contract and made a new one for 33 million dollars. Only to give Philadelphia 76ers room to get better players. I've written it before but once it is almost official, I still can't believe it. This is so cool! I don't remember anyone who does that before 35 years old. And for the 2023 - 2024 season he has an option for 35 million. Especially after this development, I really wish 76ers can get some good players and have a solid team and get to at least conference finals this season. With Embid and Harden, they have a very good core. Just need some role players that they can depend on. It seems like they will be the team I will be rooting for this season? Yes, almost there.

Still, not the best team but I will likely keep track of the Philadelphia 76ers' development and who will be the next players to join them, because that sacrifice is of to naught if they can not get the best-fitted player for their team, I think they should focus more on defense, they would really need a good defensive player that will likely not fall to the likes of Marcus Smart, and Draymond Green caliber to make sure of the championship,

Here is the result of my picks for the UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs. Aspinall

Curtis Blaydes VS Tom Aspinall ROUND 1 KO/TKO - WIN

And just like that Tom Aspinall's knee just gave out, it could be that Curtis Blaydes was made of metal blades, or Aspinall needs to drink a lot of milk for him to quickly get injured for we can not get any from the fight because the fight didn't last for long, but there is something that I notice why is Tom Aspinall going to Blaydes more recklessly I really though that Aspinall has the fight IQ or can fight technically but that was really unexpected from him, but it is good to which bet for Curtis Blaydes and I really need to thanks Welsh for having some of his opinions for this, but man I really feel sorry for Tom Aspinall and wish him a speedy recovery,

Jack Hermansson VS Chris Curtis ROUND 3 DECISION - WIN

1st round was so close each fighter are reading their opponent exchanging strikes and checking their distance, pretty much Hermansson can go for the takedown but he didn't, and in the 2nd round Jack Hermansson was now really familiar with the distance and capitalizing his reach with kicks until Hermansson explode and brawling Curtis, but Curtis is defending with all he can, but it is off to naught it was really a pretty entertaining fight in my opinion and I really love it,

Paddy Pimblett VS Jordan Leavitt ROUND 2 SUBMISSION - WIN

It was insane one of the best walkouts that I have seen most people are chanting Paddy, Baddy, and for Paddy the Baddy it was an awesome sight, in my opinion, he should also give credit to Jordan Leavitt for giving Pimblett a hard time during the 1st round, and men Leavitt was so strong controlling the fight by carrying Paddy and slamming him on the ground, but many have said that Jordan Leavitt should have won the 1st round, because of the control but I think those controls don't have a count with the score, it was Paddy Pimblett who is close to finishing the fight with a guillotine and actually a 2 times Guillotine on Leavitt, but to no success, the scoring on the rounds isn't really necessary because Pimblett have shown great jiu Jitsu even though I think his strikes do not have technicality in it, his grappling was superb, getting that Rear naked choke to Leavitt was a sight for fighters on the division to look out for Paddy Pimblett,

Here are my picks for today's game for League of Legends Champions Korea 2022

Freecs VS Sandbox Gaming

Stake odds for this game are 2.75 for Freecs while 1.41 for Sandbox Gaming, In this match these two teams fought back on June 17 and the result was a 2 - 0 win by SANDBOX and right now Freecs has 4 wins and 7 losses, while SANDBOX has 7 wins and 4 losses, for this match SANDBOX, in my opinion, has the upper hand, from their 1st encounter SANDBOX have won, and if I would bet for Correct Map Score it will be 0 - 2 for 2.28 SANDBOX win,

Hanwha Life Esports VS Gen.g Esports

Stake odds for this game are 9.60 for Hanwha Life Esports while 1.04 for Gen.G, this is a pretty straightforward pick and we all know that Gen.G will win this again, on June 18 these two teams clashed with 2 - 0 Gen.G wins, and right now Hanwha life esports has 1 win and 9 losses, and Gen.G got 9 wins and 1 lost, pretty much with the score we can say who is in the advantage, and Gen.G has already pulverized Hanwha and likely I will bet again to the Correct Map Score for this game and it will be 0 - 2 1.26 win for Gen.G, and my pick will be Gen.G,
2891  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: July 23, 2022, 07:10:17 PM
To my surprise my Bellator bets all won. So, I'm currently up five fights on my accumulator. Still got a bloody lot to go with the UFC though, and I'm sure they'll be one that messes it up. Next on my accumulator I have:

Jai Herbert
Muhammad Mokaev
Marc Diakiese
Nathaniel Wood
Mason Jones
Paddy the baddy

Then, I've also chucked further events on it like Amanda Nunes, Magomed Anklaev, Christian Tapia, and Guido Vinaello. I know they have a chance to get cancelled, but I'm making the most of a offer on my fiat bookie. You'll notice there's some boxing in it too. Its a 16 fold accumulator Cheesy.

It was a great watch and I really enjoyed it, I haven't made a bet because I haven't seen the time, after I bet for the UFC I forgot to bet for Bellator, I thought that UFC will be early than Bellator, but my computation on the timeline was wrong, but it doesn't matter will be waiting for the UFC event to really enjoyed the fight,

But Bellator was really a great fight the fact that I can not predict who's going to win is surely a thrill if I got my bet on, like when the opening fight of Marcelo Golm VS Davion Franklin now that is a banger of a fight for the start of an event on Bellator I really though that Davion Franklin would win this because of that power the way he carries Marcelo Golm 2 times and slamming him to the ground and even Bloodied Golm by cutting his eyebrow, but due to gassing out Davion Franklin assault stopped, and on the start of round 2 Golm cut was revealed and it was a nasty cut but the officials continue the fight, and Davion Franklin was really exhausted, he is not really used in getting the distance, and from that I have enjoyed all other Bellator fights,

2892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 23, 2022, 06:15:18 PM


There are lots of stars who got a surprise even Tare young can't no longer use that same Harden's tactics.

They needed to get used to it since the new upcoming season is almost arriving and all the adjustments needs to work out.
A good player always finds ways to continue standing forward from the rest of the players all around the court, simply means
that whatever the rules and with or without the call, they will show dominance.

This will undoubtedly cause a lot of players to be dysfunctional with their offensive plays and this will surely lessen layers to commit offensive fouls although there is still a chance to likely be foul from the offensive standpoint it is likely will be hard I think this is not really needed but officials from NBA have already approved it, so players will surely just need to comply,

^^ I guess it's just a question of Booker's mentality though, I rated him above Tatum couple of years ago, but right now, it seems that Tatum is more clutch than him specially with the way their series with Dallas turns out.

So let's see if he can go back next season with a lot of pride and prove something in return. He is still in his prime, can average 25 ppg++ and be on the top of the scoring list. He just need to be consistent and have that Black Mamba mentality.

I think Booker is a great player that can carry the team in some crucial moments but at some point when the going gets tough he would surely choke in the time the team will be needing him most, and because at some point he is not really consistent with his play, but at least Kendall Jenner and he gets back together, maybe this may become an inspiration for Devin Booker, getting back with his love life, but it will indeed cause a problem aswell,


I guess Booker was really affected by the trash talking of Luka during their series. It was very evident that Luka takes over that series from them and they don't have any answer even if they play homecourt. I guess that's how savage Luka is, and it's more on Booker can't take control of his emotions that's why he is affected by it. Probably, it's now or never for Chris Paul, next season should be the one but the Warriors are still one of the favorite despite some of the supporting cast leaving for a good contract on other teams.

Luka Doncic was really a savage and I think Devin Booker just watch and sit on how Luka Doncic decimated the team, It was really effective on Chris Paul and Devin Booker, if this continues the same will just happen to the Phonix Suns, in this coming season,
2893  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 23, 2022, 04:21:57 PM


Oh no problem mate, yeah you did add the whole undercard in the fight.

The fight is pretty much stack up I would say and overall good supporting fight. And for sure this fight is going to sell a lot of tickets. Garcia has big fights in Barclays and he has the support of the Puerto Rican boxing fans. Nevertheless, he will be up against one of the best underrated puncher in Benadivez Jr so we will see who will get it first, his left hook or Benavidez Jr straight right.

Well, at least I have seen it, and right now for me I still think that Danny Garcia is more technical than Jose Benavidez Jr. and Danny Garcia really has a great form this is my opinion regarding the highlights these both fighters have shown, well I see Benadivez really has good reach and timing for a punch, but I still think Garcia is more technical and those crazy strengths he can pull releasing those left hook, was really devastating,

Regarding the much anticipated fight between Davis and Ryan Garcia, Tank said or at least his promotion, Floyd Mayweather that he is not going to fight Ryan at 135 lbs. So Ryan needs to go down to 135 lbs since his last 2 fights where in the limit of 140 lbs. For sure he can still make this weight and schedule the fight this December or early next year so that we will see who is the best in the 135 lbs and then Garcia can move on to 140 lbs if he wanted to.

I think the kid will make his weight there is still plenty of time to prepare but he needs a good nutritionist to lose weight, it is easy for a boxer to lose weight but to gain weight is a different story well this is just my opinion regarding the fact, I know that there would be some that will say it is easy to gain weight than to lose it aswell, well it will surely depend on the person's metabolism and the case of Ryan Garcia he is really skinny and I think he has difficulty in gaining weight, for this fight, I think I like Gervonta Davis Jr, to win this but still, Garcia can always come on top,

we can also have a debate regarding if you really like a woman to fight or not in this kind of combat sports,

First of all, to avoid throwing rotten tomatoes into me, my opinion is that kitchen is not the only place for women Grin I am ok with seeing women in sports with weapons (like fencing). I am ok to seeing women in judo, wrestling, karate and other close combat sports. But, the winner in a fight must be decided by amount of points gained for performing technique. But not who has made more damage, crippled, or injured his opponent. Mark a hit to a face, get 1 point. Get 10 points and win. Not smash other chicks nose, break her cheekbone and win.

Respect, in what you want I really want that as well I really don't want to see a fighting kitten be bloodied, or have a broken arm, leg, or joint but I think in the heat of the battle it is really inevitable to sustain those kinds of injuries, I really don't want a debate actually and I really respect your opinion everybody wants that kind of approach with a woman fighting in this kind of event but combat sports are really like that,

and there is a recent fight that I was really freaking out about when I see it happen the fight between Jessica-Rose Clark VS Julija Stoliarenko when Stoliarenko broke Clark's arm and pop it up because of the armbar, it was really concerning, and after that fight, I was really searching what has to happen and how is Jessica-Rose, upon further searching I've seen she uploaded a video on how she was an update on her broken Arm, and likely it was a surgery, and from that, I really feel the hardship in a woman that is why I don't want to see this kind of sight but as a fan, we can not do much but just to support them in what they do,

That one single bet ended up winning ! finally huh but I just cant seems to stay out of making parlay bet lol. I ended putting another one with lower stake though but it ended up going well
I was planning to take OG as well on their last series but the timing wasn't on my side during that time as Sportsbet's odds went down on both betradar and betsy just before the series started.

That is why I really love betting for LCK, games are really consistent, but yeah it really lacks competition in my opinion and the thrill of losing is not there,
If you want a bit of thrill and spice things up there's always the LPL and LEC Wink but there are still a couple of upsets that happened recently like Nongshim losing to Fredit Brion and DRX losing to KT Rolster. The gap between the upper vs mid to lower teams in the standings is just way too far compared to the other leagues.

I am not yet familiar with the League of Legends European Championship and Tencent League of Legends Pro League just yet, maybe because I am not familiar with certain teams, but I am really getting into it, but now I am really chilling with League of Legends Champions Korea for the time being, getting much money I can take until the League ends but I really love to see the thrill in every game the more unpredictable, maybe I will eventually get into the topic with the LPL and LEC next time,

Right now I haven't made my pick with the game today the League of Legends Champions Korea and the result for this game are

Brion Blade VS T1 Map 1 - 2

WOW! Brion Blade suddenly win on the 1st map against T1, this is a surprise knowing that Brion Blade has only 1 win, the entire League, Map one was won by Brion Blade with 64.6k gold, 16 kills, and 11 towers while T1 has 55.8k gold 6 kills and 4 towers on the 1st Map for Brion Blade while on the 2nd Map things have turned the table because right now T1 has won with 66.6k gold, 15 kills, and 9 towers while Brion Blade has 55.2k gold, 9 kills, and 0 towers, and on Map 3 things have escalated quickly, it is a T1 win, and game stats are 71.2k gold, 17 kills, and 8 towers, while Brionn Blade has 62.9K gold, 10 kills and  4 towers, making this game win for T1,

kt Rolster VS NS RedFroce Map 1 - 0

This game is still in progress pretty much kt Rolster has a good chance with this one because kt Rolsters now have 1 Map win, against NS RedForce,

Even though Luis Suarez is 35 years old, he says he still wants to play in one of the European clubs, so Suarez's ambition is still very big.
While Dortmund really urgently needs a striker, after Haller, who had just been bought from Ajax, experienced health problems that required
Haller to rest for a long time. So both Dortmund and Suarez need each other, so it would be perfect for Suarez to join Dortmund. At least
Luis Suarez can be a solution for Dortmund in the short term, after all Dortmund can bring Suarez for free, So I think it's in Dortmund's favor
to sign Suarez. I don't underestimate the Bundesliga, but when compared to La Liga, the Bundesliga's level of play is still below La Liga.
Suarez who is no longer young, should still be able to contribute to the Bundesliga if it is true that Dortmund want to bring in Suarez.

A possibility for that can happen because they really need a substitute for Sebastien Haller, they surely be needing a caliber of that for the team, even for a brief moment it's likely there is news about this that Luis Suarez is returning home, to Dortmund, and 20,000 fans wears his mask in supports for him returning to his first club and non-other than Dortmund,


In terms of performance maybe but for this productivity Mane has to work a little more.
He has to be aware that when people's eyes see him it is certain that he will now continue to be portrayed as a replacement for Lewandowski so when expectations are slightly different it will make it difficult to say he is good.
He should really be able to create his own wave and try to beat the form Lewandowski had in the previous season so that he won't be labeled as a failed substitute.


Many will see him that way, I think this could have a double edge effect on him in my opinion it could be in a positive way if he takes it as a challenge to be the next Lewandowski and be the next face of Bayern Munich, or it could surely be a pressure to him to handle this kind of big role in the club, I really think it is up to him to handle such task, it will not be a simple job, but I think Robert Lewandowski starts in a simpler way, then that have improved him moving forward,

Bayern Munich are very interested in signing Harry Kane and Nigel Klinsmann is very keen of having Kane play for his side. The only and major issue is that he's very expensive and Bayern doesnt generally splurge that kind of money unless absolutely necessary. He still hopes maybe in the future, there might be a chance to sign Kane.

Now that many have known that Robert Lewandowski is not on the team anymore, so they are doing what it takes to certainly fill the huge gap that Lewandowski has left, I think the new recruits were just for back up in case Sadio Mane can not fill in for the role of Lewandowski, which is a huge pressure and at the same time a very challenging role for him, well we will surely see it in the up coming season if this kind of game play will surface for Bayern Munich,

Here is my pick for the UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs. Aspinall highlighted in green are my picks

Curtis Blaydes VS Tom Aspinall

Stake odds for this fight were 2.22 for Blaydes while 1.67 for Aspinall, and After a brief moment of struggle on who is my pick and who to bet, I surely have a hard time making this, I got a hunch that Tom Aspinall may win this, and I think he can even show more in the UFC because surely all his fight was just in 1 to 2 rounds and he hasn't even shown most of his cards but his opponent this time is Curtis Blaydes one of the top rank heavyweights in the UFC, Blaydes surely got a tremendous advantage over wrestling and I think Aspinall will surely have a hard time even if he got a decent takedown defense, in all of his fights was with TKO and submission Aspinall really is finishing his opponent quickly if he can Knockout Blaydes quickly then this is Tom Aspinall's win but for me, Blaydes is one tough bastard to crack and I think the strength of Aspinall is not like Lewis, and if this goes the distance Aspinall may have a hard time in longer fights he might gas out my pick was really Tom Aspinall but I got a change of heart due to certain something, so I am going with Curtis Blaydes,

Jack Hermansson VS Chris Curtis

Stake odds for this game were 1.87 for Hermansson, while 1.94 for Curtis, I think for this fight Hermansson was from 2 Consecutive losses, from Khamzat Chimaev, and Sean Strickland it was a decision loss, while Chris Curtis, was from a win against Rodolfo Vieira, I guess this is the 1st time Curtis will be fit to a much well-known fighter, a top competitor like Jack Hermansson, it pretty much a threat to Curtis, and for me even though Chris Curtis has so much experience in his career, I will tend to go to a fighter that is very well-rounded in my opinion that is why I will go with Jack Hermansson,

Paddy Pimblett VS Jordan Leavitt

Stake odds for this game were 1.34 for Pimblett while 3.30 for Leavitt, pretty much Paddy the baddy Pimblett is the favorite to win, I mean Jordan Leavitt has good Jui Jitsu, that Paddy will surely need, but for me, that is why Dana White has given Pimblett this match I think he can get  the job done with one shit, that is why I will be going with the favorite Paddy the Baddy Pimblett although I don't like the guys, he still provide good method, of entertainment, that is why I am picking him, I will go with Paddy Pimblett,

Here are the result of the game yesterday on League of Legends Champions Korea 2022

Sandbox Gaming VS Gen.G Esports MAP 0 - 2 - WIN

Pretty much I have got the Correct Map Score for this game and yeah 0 - 2, and it was a one-sided game for Gen.G SANDBOX doesn't really stand a chance but on the 1st Map, SANDBOX made a pretty great game, because they have many kills on that game, with 18 kills but Gen.G just does the unthinkable if you can not beat them with killing push heir base, and so they did, Gen.G destroyed the path with 71.6k gold, 14 kills, and 10 towers while SANDBOX has 65.8k gold, 18 kills, and 6 towers, while Map 2 was another win for Gen.G with 67.2k gold, 26 kills and 11 towers, while SANDBOX has 55.5k gold, 14 kills and 3 towers, pretty much Gen.G has given SANDBOX a beating on this map, pulverizing them with 26 kills,

DragonX VS Damwon Gaming MAP 2 - 1 - WIN

Another Correct Map Score of 2 - 1 win for DragonX now this game I don't know what happens on Map 2 but I think they lost on purpose, but anyway Map 1 was very one-sided, DRX win has them 52.9k gold, 14 kills, and 8 towers, while Damwon has 42.1k gold, 5 kills, and 1 tower, and from that stat, it was really a great game to watch seeing your choice of a team is killing it, while on Map 2 this is a win of Damwon with 54.4k gold, 10 kills, and 10 towers, pretty much that is really something I have taken a break and then I returned what happen to DRX, but yeah it really happens while Map 3 was DRX win, that has 63.1k gold, 22 kills, and 8 towers, while Damwon has 55.9k gold, 13 kills and 3 towers,

That is why I really love betting for LCK, games are really consistent, but yeah it really lacks competition in my opinion and the thrill of losing is not there,

-snip-

I wouldn't call him fake Khabib. I think he can be the new Khabib, especially if he keeps decimating opponents as he has been. Diaz will give him a good run for his money I'm sure and I am definitely looking forward to this fight. Hopefully it's a fight like Chimaev's last against Burns where he was the first person to go the distance with him. Khamzat definitely wasn't expecting that. Diaz has only been knocked out once I believe and even that was a ref stoppage (though he was getting battered on the floor and his corner threw in the towel as the ref went to stop it). All other fights I think he's either won or lost on points so this fight going the distance is certainly a possibility.

According to Diaz Dana is wanting to make the trilogy fight happen with Connor so win or lose this might not be the last we've seen on Diaz:

https://www.express.co.uk/sport/ufc/1642611/Conor-McGregor-UFC-fight-news-Nate-Diaz-Dana-White-Brad-Pickett-MMA-NEWS

Quote
McGregor is expected to return to competition in February or March next year after breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier last July. There have been many names rumoured to face him including Michael Chandler, Charles Oliveira and even Henry Cejudo, but Diaz recently revealed to The MMA Hour that the UFC want him to fight McGregor for a third time next.

I wasn't the one that said it, it was Jake Paul, and here is his Tweet



Pretty much Khamzat is decimating everybody, well his fight with Gilbert Burns, I think he is cautious about getting the fight on the ground, I really think he really knows the strength of Burns on the ground that is why he pushes the Stand-up fight, that is why I go the distance, pretty much he doesn't let Burns decide the fight I think that is what happens but if Khamzat would want the fight to end his way then Grappling will be his choice, but a rematch is not really bad and for Nate Diaz, Khamzat Chimaev will not hesitate in getting Diaz into submission and let the fight on the ground, And as you have said calling Chimaev fake Khabib is not really appropriate, because Chimaev and Khabib Nurmagomedov, has different style, And with Diaz there might be a chance that we see him again, and this could not be the last time, but I don't really know of some trilogy fight but that would be boring in my opinion,


Burns has always been underestimated I feel. He showed up in that fight, and it's the first time we've seen Chimaev actually hurt. Like, at one point I'm pretty sure his legs give out under him. He was hurt, and as DC would say "hurt bad". However, I'm not sure if he will be the next khabib, different fighting styles. Chimaev could've gone to the ground a little more against Burns, but he seems rather stubborn, and wanted to stand toe to toe, and hopefully knock him out. While after the fight he admitted this was a mistake, it was probably due to Burns' ground game, despite Chimaev being more than proficient in that area.

Khabib on the other hand, stayed safe the majority of the time. He didn't fall in love with knocking people out, and instead stuck to his game plan. I'm not sure at least at this stage of his career if Chimaev has the same discipline as Khabib.


Jake Paul is a fool saying that Khamzat Chimaev is a fake Khabib but in reality, Chimaev is not trying to be like Khabib Nurmagomedov, they have their separate style I can call Khamzat Chimaev like a wild beast ready for the attack, in fact, Chimaev would love the brawl, and will not hesitate on a stand-up when he is challenged,  and Chimaev has a tendency to withstand the blow instead of waving his head evading the punch, While Khabib Nurmagomedov you are right stick to the game plan, and does what his best of,

I would not say Khabib stayed safe in his carrier and fight with Connor and with real bear showed that.  Smiley
He doesn't have boxing or kickboxing as a base sport from younger age, so you couldn't expect to see him like that, but sttas is showing that he finished most of his fight early, 28% with KO or TKO, and 38% was submission win, that is 66% total.
Tongue Yeah. Although, I was more referring to his style of fighting, than the opponents he picked. He didn't avoid fights that's for sure. However, his fighting style does mitigate a lot of the dangers that most fighters present, especially when you're the best wrestler in every single fight. I've always said it, if you're the better wrestler you get to dictate the fight however you want. You can take them down or you can try, and beat them on the feet.

I just wish Khabib stayed fighting for a little bit longer, I didn't catch many of his earlier fights, since I discovered the UFC somewhat late compared to some of you here.

Actually, I have known Khabib Nurmagomedov because of his fight with Conor McGregor back in 2018, I haven't watched UFC back then until I saw that fight and I think that is my 1st time loving the sports until I manage to spot some really good action and through this day I am enjoying taking an analysis of the fight especially when I've seen Khabib Nurmagomedov, unique style in fighting and I kind of love that and wanted to see that, and that is why I love him to step inside the ring again, but we still have Islam Makhachev for that matter,

I would have worried about Bayern Munich scoring if the competition in the Bundesliga for Bayern Munich had been higher. But obviously, the competition is not at the level of Bayern Munich. So I don't think they have to worry too much about anything at all.

I would likely put my all for Bayern Munich if they still have Robert Lewandowski in the team, but for me, Bayern Munich will likely still have a chance in the Bundesliga because with or without Lewandowski they still set apart a team that can surely withstand in the test of the championship, and I think they are ready for the next season but I think right now the players will surely need to struggle to do more,

Yes, it would be interesting to see Haller from Dortmund having a spirited race with someone from Bayern Munich. Nevertheless, it does not have to be a central forward. It can be Sadio Mane for all I care.

After the news that Sebastien Haller was taken out of the clubs training camp, because of his testicular tumor, I would really not expect him to be on the next season just yet, because after the operation he will be needing a long time to recover, so likely Bayern Munich, Leipzig or Leverkusen, in my opinion, would likely chasing for those goals,

My point is Bayern Munich is nothing without Robert Lewandowski. Yes, Robert Lewandowski was the most valuable player at Bayern Munich. He has scored the most amount of goals as well. But him not being in the club only means that the club will be missing a lot of goals going forward. Not suddenly dropped from the top four positions.

Well I really think Bayern Munich will likely hang on the top, they can still get this done if their players will keep their mind on Focus more because I think most players in Bayern Munich is relying so much on Lewandowski, but for me, there are players in the Bayern Munich that may keep the club to the top, and let's not forget our Sadio Mane, and if they could get their hand on the defender Matthias De Ligt that would be a pretty new story for Bayern Munich,
