Lakers on the other hand would likely be getting this chance of a lifetime to get that spot and if they face off Pelicans, I think it's still doubtful if they can win, they just lost from their last battle. I think they need an 8th spot so that they still have a chance at the lower bracket in the play-in.

Pelicans should not be taken lightly, if they will play the Lakers, I might bet on the Pelicans as they have a solid lineup already. When CJ McCullum was added to the team, his contribution has been so solid and that's the reason why they are also winning games.

As of the current ranking, they have a record of 31-42 (tied with LA)

I agree with you depending on who is playing I might take the pels in that too.  Back against the wall I'd hate to bet against lebron though, his best comes out in those games.  I think the question that really needs to be answered is will AD be playing or not.  That is huge.

They might play AD because it's an important game, if they'll lose, that would be too embossing for the team who started to look like a super team prior to the start of the season. Even with AD, I still feel backing the Pelicans because I believe that the struggle of the Lakers this season will not end right away.

If AD it's a whole new game.  Takes some pressure off lebron and can basically use russ as a reserve for the second team.  I don't think I could bet against lebron in a one and done.  During season yes but he reserves himself for the end of the year and post season.  Pels could definitely take them but I'd rather just be a spectator Smiley

Most of the market is beginning to pick up in recent times and altcoin look left behind in the recent market boom.

What are we going to expect from the altcoin market with this new market boom will altcoin see a new phase in the market or Bitcoin will continue with the market trend?

False flag.  I think alts are in for a longterm bear here.  They .iggt have went up a little but that can be wiped out with one bad day.  Best bet is to just keep cost averaging into bitcoin and wait for a sustained increase in alts which will signal another bull season.  Think we got the entire 2022 and maybe 2023 to get through.  Stack til halving.

Do you have any pattern that you see or watch in the market to determine time to sell your hodlings and take your profit ?

Do you regret not selling your coins at any point because you didn't know it will drop ?

Can you share your opinion

Depends on what you are dealing with.  With bitcoin it's always a good time to keep stashing bitcoin as it always legs up higher than the previous high.  With crapcoins and tokens take profit after the first pump.  Good chance it falls to nothing after that pump.

Hawks only -2.5 against the Warriors.

Though the Warriors beat the Heat, I still cannot forget how lousy they are in their 2 losses prior to that big win.
So, I'm taking chances, I'm thinking, what if the Warriors will struggle again, therefore taking the home team is going to be my decision.

I'm with you on this one.  Cross country trip without steph or dreymond.  Atlanta has a lot to fight for right now think the Hawks take this and cover the -2.5

Also like jazz on the road -4 against the Hornets here and will also be taking the Timberwolves-3.5 at home against Dallas.  I'm bullish on the Wolves long term here they are playing well.

Duke game was an instant classic last night.  Best game of the tourny so far in my mind.  Houston also looks dangerous on d.  Can't wait to see tonight's game with st Peter's and Perdue.  Always love a good underdog, go st peters!

Just seen new york city is lifting its restrictions and kyrie will be able to play every game.  That's every 1-4 seed tes worst nightmare right about now.  Imagine landing a 2 seed and have to face a durant/kyrie/Seth team lol.  Probably first time the lower seed will be overwhelming the favorite in the series.  Giant we just end the season already lol.
2988  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 24, 2022, 12:57:23 AM
I bet today Charlotte Hornets - New York Knicks: Hornets win (-7.5pts). Knicks are really poor right now, no structure on offense, weak spacing, no point guard. Furthermore they play back to back with a travel. Hornets feel very strong on their own floor and they play with big energy. Knicks can't keep up with their pace.

Same here but already in the 4th quarter and I don't see the Hornets winning or covering the spread. I was surprised that the New York Knicks has jump on the lead early and Hornets is having a hard time catching up so I guess I will consider my bet as L already.

But there are a lot of games, thinking of putting a live bet, maybe the Suns vs Minnesota.

Knick fan here and watch all the games.  Thibs is playing all the young kids and they playing with great energy, Hornets can't keep up tonight.  Outside of a flurry of 3s Charlotte is cooked I wouldn't in game bet at this point.  I'm bearish on the Knicks but not in this game right now.

Gonna lay some hard bets against them while those 2 are out.  Should be easy money.

You nailed it, I missed the last two games but in their next game, I think I'm gonna follow you on that. They have a game tomorrow against the Heat, they are on a back to back, do you think the Heat would cover the -7 spread?

Yep, so long as dreymond is out heat will eat them up in the middle.  Will they cover and win some of the last 10 games maybe.  But my guess is that they will lose ATS more than they will cover.  Playing the long game.
2990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: March 23, 2022, 01:07:34 PM

Warriors really did struggle in that game, and you know the answer, because they miss Curry.

Exactly, they already lost twice in a row, and no curry on both games.

The playoffs are approaching, if they keep losing, they might lose the home-court advantage.
As of now, they are in the number 3 but it's possible for them to drow below number 4, so they better know that.
Waiting for Wiggins to show that he deserves that All-Star spot. He was playing great before they entered that event, which is the reason for the high amount of votes he received. Now, he is back to that inconsistent Wiggins.
5/19 field goals. That's a shitty game if you have those stats and he played 36 minutes which makes you think more about what he did all that time he consumed.  
Time to show up, step up, dominate again. That's Magic they played, it should've been a sure win with or without Curry.

Wiggins is a good role player, with steph out the defense can focus on the role players more and he isn't good enough to dominate defenses.  He has always been a bit inefficient so nothing new but you are right golden state will struggle the rest of the year if they can't figure out how to beat teams without steph.

But I think even bigger then stephs absence is dreymond.  They can't start looney at center and expect to win many games either.  With steph and dreymond out this is a terrible team.  Gonna lay some hard bets against them while those 2 are out.  Should be easy money.

How about a monster dunk from Zion Williamson this morning? he seems to like doing fine and might gonna return next season for sure.
He was a prodigy and basketball fans have lots of expectations for him, he even got his personalized shoes because they've really expected to see him dominating the league.

https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=299414015666947
Though he needs to work out on those fats he got. Doubt if he's still that Zion that was overrated from high school and up to this day. The NBA league is different than that, maybe he can work on his post moves a little bit and more on the shooting as well. He may got some good amount of foul on the paint since he dominate that area.

Overrated from high-school?  What are you talking about.  He was the most dominant player on the court in college from day 1.  He can play inside or outside, it's injuries that have held him back He was never overrated as a player.  Dude was 19 wrecking games in the NBA when at full health.  Now does he ever play for long stretches no clue.  But when he is playing overrated is not the word used to describe zion sorry.

I also took the Hawks@1.66 despite their head to head results in favor of the Knicks as Randle won't be playing with them which puts the Hawks at a nice advantage. Then again having an advantage doesn't mean much as we saw yesterday how the Sixers took down the Heat even without Embiid and Harden. At the same time, both teams are needing wins since they're still fighting for the play-ins spot.



Honestly with Randle out I think it favors the Knicks here.  Randle has been more a negative then a positive.  With him off the floor the younger kids (rj) can run the show.  I didn't bet it but I'd say the Knicks take this one

Taking the bucks/bulls over and then taking Nuggets at home -6.5 against the Clippers.  Good luck ya'll
2994  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: March 22, 2022, 11:42:16 PM
Lebron is a great player and I like him, but dude is just way too old, even with scoring this many points, he is too old to carry a team of scrubs anymore, add in health issues and it is unlikely that they will even be in play-in, and even if they are they will just get eliminated.

If only he is surrounded by a good set of teammates, the Lakers might be one of the title contenders this year.

That old dude is averaging 30 PPG and if there's a teammates that is doing the same, they are a team to beat this season. But unfortunately, that's not the situation and the Lakers nation is hoping for a good surprise.  Not too late for Westbrook to regain his momentum. Just focus and disregard negative comments towards him.

Unfortunately I just think it doesn't work with Westbrook out there.  This whole thing relies on Bron defying the odds and then hoping to tread water until AD can come back.  Not looking good for them though.

I also got a $50 USDT free bet as I had 8 points but ended up losing it on a parlay that lost on the first leg while the rest of legs won which is annoying.  Lips sealed

Anyway, I went with mostly the overs for this round as it feels like the safest bet when most of the top-seeded teams have been dropping 70-80 points.

Out of the 8 games I only have Duke and UNC as the underdogs. Hopefully one of them hits so I could have a chance at the top 3. 

Gonzaga Bulldogs(Over 154.5) - Arkansas Razorbacks
Villanova Wildcats(Over 135.5 - Michigan Wolverines
Duke Blue Devils(Over 136.5) - Texas Tech Red Raiders
Arizona Wildcats(Over 145.5) - Houston Cougars
Purdue Boilermakers(Over 137.5) - Saint Peter's Peacocks
Kansas Jayhawks(Over 141.5) - Providence Friars
UCLA Bruins - North Carolina Tar Heels(Over 141.5)
Miami Hurricanes(Over 134.5) - Iowa State Cyclones

Duke is the underdog in this game?  I'd take that bet all day, tech is good but definitely beatable they have a lock down defense but duke plays well against good d.  That over us scary though since tech plays a slow drag out game.  Gonna check this out though first time seeing it
2996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: March 21, 2022, 11:25:45 PM
Nets are going to be hosting Jazz home tonight. And I see that bookmakers are favouring Jazz to win this game. But it is a slight odd difference between them too as Nets are in a great shape as well. They have started to play stronger recently and they are getting the products of their efforts for sure. Especially Irving has done an incredible work recently. For example, the game that he scored 60 points in was unbelievable. It was career-high points for him. I'm still waiting for him to start playing in home games too. Then, they can be awesome as before.
I expected the odds to be closer since Durrant is already playing at a high level but I can also understand why the bookies had Jazz at 1.7 while Nets at over 2. Mitchell is playing really well carrying his team to double digit wins in the past three games.

Discard Irving's recent performance since he is still not allowed to play home games.

It looks like there are no major injury to both sides so this shouls be an entertaining game.

That's why right there because kyrie is out.  The Jazz are a top team and will be real difficult for the Nets to handle without kyrie.  I wouldn't touch this game could go either way here.  Should be a good one though
2997  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 21, 2022, 11:02:21 PM
I like the Wolves getting 2 points on the road tonight against the mavs.  And gimme Cleveland at home -5 against the Lakers.  Pretty much taking whoever is playing the Lakers for the rest of the year.  Think their fight is done.
2998  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: March 21, 2022, 09:01:22 PM
It'll be hard for anyone to make the case that LeBron isn't the GOAT after he passes Kareem on the all time scoring list.  Jordan will always be the ghost he's chasing though.  When it comes to Jordan, you have to remember the guy missed nearly 2 seasons in the middle of his prime, then retired early.  There is no doubt in my mind that if Jordan were chasing points instead of championships, he would have been the leading scorer (gambling controversy aside). 

Seeing LeBron have great games and lose shows that the NBA is not only more competitive these days, but that LeBron isn't as far ahead of his competition as Jordan was.  Even Westbrook had a good game yesterday and they still lost...  Hate to see it.

There is no doubt that LeBron is the GOAT, and he has already proved it. At the same time, I agree that Jordan was clearly at a higher level than LeBron. By the way, MJ missed 4 seasons in his career, and if he hadn't been away for so long, he could have scored over 40k points. It seems to me that it could have been quite an achievable goal for him, given that he was capable of scoring more than 28 points per game before retiring from the league.

We can agree to disagree.  Lebron started earlier than Jordan as well.  Lebron is great no doubt, but the goat that's not just a given if he passes Kareem.  Jordan unretired and won 3 championships and dominated.  As good as the era was (magic, Hakeem, Ewing, reggie, barkley, Malone, etc etc) he was undeniable the best player on the court always.  And like I said different era, now aways no one plays d and hand checks are fouls.  Jordan in this era would be insane.

Can't follow March Madness much because of time zone difference. Happy that Arizona Wildcats is still in the game, they have few players that I like. Duke and coach K. in his final season continue to fight. They will meet Texas Tech next, it's probably 50/50 game.
 
U stupid or something? What does 63:58 mean? its a typical end result of ncaa games u clown.
Look at Loyola Chicago right now, 28 points after 31 minutes.
And with fans I obviously mean the atmosphere. Seems like u are retarded or something not understanding the moct obvious shit.
Best young players in the world, hahaha.
Ever heard of Europe? The last 3 season's NBA MVPs didnt go to college btw.
I rather watch game with 63:58 score than typical NBA regular season game without any defense and final score something like 140:135.
C'mon, they're playing 40 minutes, not 48, they have 30 seconds for attack, not 24 and you can't expect high scoring games in March Madness where every game is final and players defend like angry dogs. I'm not saying that NCAA is highest level basketball, but I think you have wrong expectations.

Yeah the duke game is Def 50/50 could go either way.  Tech is one of my sleepers.  Just hoping duke has enough in the tank to beat a strong tech team.  AJ grinning went down last night hopefully he is healthy by Thursday, he is key on the team.  Good floor spacer, hits 3s at a high rate.

Get it authenticated or split.  You started a thread a couple months ago about the same thing, why make a new one.  Too tired to find it.  Autographed cards not authenticated is worth squat in my opinion.  Anyone with a marker can sign a card.

Bottom right corner is soft af too.  Get that thing authenticated AND graded and then you might find a serious buyer and get a better price range.
