CJ Perez is the player of the week. https://pba.ph/news/cj-perez-named-player-of-the-weekSAN MIGUEL is one win away from a return trip to the PBA Philippine Cup semifinals, and though it had a number of capable closers to thank for, a neophyte silently and steadily stepped up to bring it closer to a place once familiar to the team.
Playing his first conference with the Beermen, quick-fire guard CJ Perez did not disappoint and served as the quiet but lethal operator for the team's resurgence after being dethroned in the Clark bubble last season.
Perez, the two-time scoring champ from Terrafirma, averaged 17.0 points on 44 percent clip from three-range, 6.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 2.0 steals in the Beermen's last two wins which ended dramatically behind the game-winners of veterans of Marcio Lassiter and Alex Cabagnot.
Behind his steady numbers, Perez, a native of Pangasinan, was adjudged the Cignal Play-PBA Press Corps Player of the Week for the period Sept. 22-26, bridging the tail-end of the eliminations and the start of the quarterfinals.
Perez is seeing action in his first playoffs appearance since emerging as the top pick in the 2018 draft. I salute him for being a player of the week despite playing with the best team in the PBA now, he really has improved as a player, he knows he can drop 20 points or more in a game but he choose to spread the ball to share it with his teammates, this quality of a player deserves this kind of award. |

Anyway, we have 2 games today.
Magnolia vs Rain or shine (2.34)
SMB vs North Port (2.49)
I guess it's hard to decide as the underdog teams here like the ROS and NorthPort are doing well this conference. however, since this is a playoffs already, I guess the better team will win and I would just bet on one game and that is on the SMB vs Northport and will pick SMB of course. Even without Romeo who was injured _ https://www.rappler.com/sports/pba/san-miguel-beermen-guard-unit-crippled-terrence-romeo-hurts-footI guess the SMB will still be able to handle the hot North Port team. Even without Romeo, SMB would be able to handle the Northport. CJ Perez, Chriss Ross, and Marcio Lassiter, are looking great on the floor and Marcio Lassiter is healthy, so this team is still a championship team. Remember that the core is still there, JMF is now healthy, and though Romeo did really well to the team, but before he joined the SMB, the team is already dominating the league. |

@Russlenat - right, the blue print has been laid out by Manny Pacquiao. So Filipino boxers can follow it to the tee. On the other hand, I believed that Pacquiao is destined to be one of the greatest that came from the Philippines after the Flash Elorde.
So it's dedication and a little of timing and of course the God given talent to really propel the next generation of boxers like Jonas Sultan to follow in the footsteps of Manny Pacquiao.
Pacquiao may retire soon as a boxer but he will continue to mold the young boxers and give them the opportunity to be popular in the world. He is the one that we have all been waiting for, he makes history in boxing in the world and mostly in the Philippines as being a promoter, he can give an opportunity to the young boxers to fulfill their dreams. Actually, we have a lot of good boxers in the Philippines, the only problem is that they don't have the opportunity to show their talent to the world, so it's a blessing that MP promotion is created which is more focused on sending their boxer to fight abroad. |

Here we go again after his tweet that contribute to the market dip he is at it again and now he is tweeting Musk Tweets He Supports Crypto in Battle Against Fiat CurrenciesThe true battle is between fiat & crypto. On balance, I support the latter. Do you think he is trying to rally the market after the dip and will this stop the continuous drop in the market. He is one of the great market manipulator that creates either a FOMO/Hype or FUDs but if you know the fundamental and technical analysis in crypto then you dont mind him. I don't hear more hype from him anymore, or probably people are not biting his words as they got educated already. Dogecoin brings a lot of investors in the market, and as long as DOGE will stay stagnant, people would always look at it as evidence that they are wrong that they got carried away by Elon's hype. |

According to chart history there have been bull odds going back in October and November to start with and peaking in December and early January for some other coins, if indeed the market repeats history.
otherwise the calculation will change.
That was one year ago, and for sure it will not happen this year as we have enough bullish movement this year. Prior to the last year's bull run, the market has been struggling in 2018 to 2020, so it needs a long correction or bearish movement before we will see another bull run and see it break the current ATH of bitcoin. And looks like we are heading to a new correction now as the market is very unpredictable, and most of its movements are bearish already. It has struggled to break the $50k price again, and today, the market dump with the China news, probably, so I guess we should prepare ourselves as we might be going down to $30k. This is the news that makes the market dumped. https://techcrunch.com/2021/09/24/china-says-all-cryptocurrency-related-transactions-are-illegal/  We don't know yet if it will hold at the current price, but it looks to go down below $40k and then it will continue to drop. Though this kind of news from China is not new to us, there's still an impact to the market, so we can't just disregard it, it could have a long term effect as well. |

Pump and dump, nothing new. Any news from dev?
The dev just posted what do you want more, if you want to get more updates on the development go to the group channel, so far we are doing good, don't give up yet, Bitgesell right now is a cheap coin with a very good potential for profit and the marketing so far is doing great we are growing. It is very cheap and i'm attracted to buy more to just save it in my wallet. I'm wondering what happen to the trading volume by the way, why it's too low which is only $4,460 24 hours volume displayed in https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitgesell/? |

Recently, actually Bitcoin and Ethereum price is moving parallel to each other. But some time ago, Ethereum price was really increasing while Bitcoin's was decreasing. And this could be a sign for the future also. Of course, it will not be easy for Ethereum price to get past Bitcoin's. But I think that it has a potential to do this. Because Ethereum is getting better every year with new big updates.
That was a long time ago, and it did not actually happen consistently because bitcoin is still very consistent with its dominance. The lowest dominance rate of bitcoin I remember was over 30%, and now the dominant rate per CMC is 42.3%, and this is actually good for altcoin as before the bull run, it was almost 60%, but as we can see, 42.3% over 17.9% for ETH, there's a huge difference.

actually more people also looking for casimero vs inoue fight because casimero and donaire are both Filipino in which not that good for their country's interest and for the fans also .
but since this is also a mandatory for casimero as the order comes from the higher ups? then sure this will be the next thing for His career,
facing Butler first before Inoue or Donaire in the future .
Agreed most of fans supporting their own country even though he's an underdog or even little chance to win, Casimero vs Donaire isn't good to since Donaire's refused to fight with Casimero in the past and less hype. IMO this ordered fight is just like a preparation between both of Casimero or Donaire to fight with Inoue. Butler and Gaballo are a good boxer with good record too, so if he could beat this boxer, he has a more chance to beat Inoue too. Actually, they don't need these mandatory fights to beat Inoue, they are already good, they beat champions and that's enough to say that they have a chance to beat Inoue, especially for Casimero as he has not faced Inoue before and Inoue might be surprised that Casimero also has the power. Casimero beat Tete, a champion who beat Butler before. Donaire beat Oubaali a champion. |

It's not you who had a bad experience, but what matters is you don't give up if you are dedicated to your plan to be successful.
Just focus on your future and do what you need to do, it's important that every time you make a mistake, you also learn. Mate, I tell you, I started in crypto with very little knowledge only, I'm not even good at these things but I tried hard to learn because I see in the future that crypto could change my life, and I would say I have partially achieved it now.

And guess what? This will just be for words as this is impossible to happen in real life. I say this because it was really hard to make it to this place. Zimbabwe is one of the poorest countries in the world and a lot of issues need for them to address more prior to urging people to embrace Bitcoin. With that state of life and the people who are living there, I can't imagine how they could understand this nor they will think of this as an opportunity. I simply draw a conclusion and I say that it was not the time for this stuff. They should have to improve their status first prior to this adoption. It wouldn't be easy but if they have a good government, maybe the government could help to educate people with a high poverty rate. Nothing is impossible dude, hopefully, the poorest countries will learn how to innovate and adapt with bitcoin as it's their chance to improve their country, but as I said, they need to have a good government first. |

That case, is truly difficult to accomplish. Perhaps not feasible as long as they exist but rather would take such countless updates and improvements from the SHIB side. Possibly if the exhibition is acceptable, shiba will have a developing and further local area, and that could up the cost of shiba coins. Either sooner rather than later or in the long haul.
Whether it since going to take time or not, I think Shiba Inu will reach such price and pass it. The market will keep going up and coming down which will make Shiba to get to such price and exceed it. The coin had gained very high market volume and I know it will still go up with time. Keep holding and if anyone intend selling then it will be no issue. There's no problem in reaching that price if we are talking about hype, however, the concern is, will Shinu continue to grow from that price or it will only be a pump and dump coin like the others. The current price is $0.000006968, it has to increase 1,435.132032146958 times to reach the target price. I guess it will take a lot of time, probably 10 years at a minimum, if it still survives and is listed in big exchanges. |

My favourite team in the new season is going to be Brooklyn Nets again. They would have become the champions in the last season also but they struggled with injuries a lot. I hope to see them more powerful in this season and they should be able to qualify for the finals nicely.
I'm currently favoring the Bucks over the Nets to represent the East. It seems drama is going to ensue once the season starts between Kyrie and other players. We know it's already ongoing between Kyrie and management. The Bucks has been pretty silent and focused on defending the title. I'm not very sure about Bucks actually. They had a very productive season last. I really liked Giannis' performance also. However, I don't see them as a consistent team. Giannis can't carry the team second time in a row I think. But they can still qualify for the conference finals as they are really strong. Maybe we are going to watch another clash between these two teams but this time I'm favoring Nets. Same here, I will always favor the Nets against any opponent in the East, that is considering the Nets are healthy, or the big 3 will play to be specific. Harden had a good regular season but his playoff season was bad, it's time for him to be healthy this season and bring his team all the way to the championship. Honestly, I can only picture seeing the LA Lakers vs Brooklyn Nets in the NBA FINALS. |

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon says he’s still a crypto skeptic: ‘I’m not a bitcoin supporter. I have no interest in it’
It explains already his view on bitcoin, why would we though that bitcoin will dump when it's the most important coin in the crypto market. Before the crypto market is created, we only know bitcoin, and then altcoins are created and they become popular as well. As per usage wise, we can tell that ETH is better, but as long as the majority of people trust bitcoin over altcoins, bitcoin will remain at the top In the long run, it's not the whales who will dictate but the masses who hold and use bitcoin. |

casimero's strength will be tested by butler first. and if he surpassed it, then, he would go after inoue again. wonder the reaction of inoue learning that casimero has another fight before him. so funny that there was hype created between inoue's and casimero's camps and even releasing the possible date this year, but ended up casimero attending a different fight first. i guess, even casimero didn't know about this obligatory defense of his title when he was talking about possible inoue's fight this year.
Thats why i did really smirk out when i do really see this announcement about this fight rather than on seeing that Inoue vs Casimero had really made off some finalization about the arrangement and for sure Casimero had been surprised off with this thing but do they have some choice? No they wont because if whats mandated then it would be definitely be the fight that would happen. Yeah its funny to think that after all the hypes we've been seeing it do still end up on having another match. That's unpredictable but Casimero would still want this fight because this is his chance to have a good win again, probably a KO win since Rigo destroyed his KO win streak giving him a bad match by just running inside the ring. Both Casimero and Donaire have a tune-up fight, so if they'll face after this, it would be a big fight that everyone would like to watch. |

We have only ten days left for the pre-season games to start! I've already missed the regular season and the playoffs a lot. I don't usually watch pre-season games. But I see that we are going to have a really awesome game on Oct 3, Brooklyn Nets vs Los Angeles Lakers. I wonder if we will be able to see the usual starting five for both teams. If we do, then I will definitely watch this game. It can be a really delightful one and I would like to just enjoy watching the game.
If you are not betting, then obviously, you will not watch the regular season. But for bettors it' s important because they will see how his favourite team is doing and then can gauge every game as who is will win, what will be the handicap or if a team can make an upset, hence underdog bets. Teams changes or rotates their starting five in the initial phase of the regular season because they will have to experiment a lot and find the perfect line up. I'm sure though the starting game will be one of the most watch NBA opening season game. He says the pre-season, most of us probably don't watch a preseason game as it's only an exhibition game to warm up the team a bit. It's a no-bearing game and probably the stars of a certain team will not play in full minutes, or will not play at all. For bettors, it's up to us if we bet on the preseason or we will just save our money and start betting when the regular season starts. |

I was surprised, to be honest about this fight.
The rumor was, Donaire canceled the fight against Casimero because he wanted to have a rematch against Inoue, but look what happen here, seems like he is not geeing a big fight easily as he has to beat the challenger first that was ordered to fight him before going to have a chance with Inoue.
I was thinking, what if Donaire did not cancel the fight against Casimero?
Maybe we will see a big fight this year.
Everyone is expecting that Donaire vs Casimero will be a big rematch fight but the issue between the two Filipino fighter arose due to misunderstanding between both parties. And after the cancellation of the fights between Donaire vs Casimero and the speculations that Inoue will be his opponents on the ring now Donaire is paired to fight on another Filipino fighter again which is younger than him and seems to be dark horse and with a 20KO record I guess this upcoming fight was still a big fight to watch for. It wasn't a rematch because they have not fought yet, maybe what you are trying to say is Inoue vs Donaire as these two had already faced each other and though Donaire did some damage on Inoue it was still Inoue who dominated on the judges' scorecards. here's the full fight from World Boxing Super Series https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vGbYscwSPI |

Gaballo is undefeated but he has very limited experience and has never fought a boxer who is on Donaire's level. Donaire is an old fighter but this is a fight he should win. He is more skilled and accomplished. Gaballo is a novice by comparison but this is an opportunity to make a name for himself.
Right, pressure is on Gaballo to win and prove that he belongs to this division, he upset Rodriguez a while back so it is time for him to show us that the win is no fluke at all and he is the real deal. If he wins against Nonito, he should be making some noises in this division. The good thing is that he is another Filipino, so for sure he will make the country proud again and bring the map into this weight class. We still have another one, Casimero, but it's good to see another Filipino name cropping in the bantamweight. It was not an upset win because in the betting odds in the sportsbook, it was Gaballo who is the favorite to win in that fight though not a heavy favorite. https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/bouts/542313-donaire-vs-rodriguez-reymart-assassin-gaballo-vs-emmanuel-manny-rodriguezThis time, Donaire is the champion, so for sure Donaire will be listed as the favorite, and if Gaballo will not change his style, we might see this fight to and early like the fight of Donaire against Oubaali . Yes, it was not upset but it was a controversial win by Gaballo, although he was the aggressor Rodriguez's game plan was so effective in that game. Unfortunately for Rodriguez, when he try to win again in another fight as an undercard on Rigo vs Casimero big fight, he was headbutt and it resulted to no contest. |

The first game today between Ginebra and Meralco has already started, I'm betting on the Meralco to win as I have a feeling that Ginebra will continue to struggle, they are not a sister team, so no rig in this game, lol.
I got them at live bet at 2.2 for ML and 5.75 for winning 11+.. who knows, right?
Good luck on that wonderful bet of yours, Meralco now is already leading 40-26 is the current score and it looks like they will get a blowout win this game. you will win the ML (90% probably) and a bonus of x5.75 (50%) IMO, so congratulations in advance.  Edit - looks like I'm wrong, only 4 points lead by Meralco now and we are in the 4th quarter already. |

Is this confirmed or Donaire's side's going to have some of sort of problem again to cancel the fight?
it is a mandatory fight ordered by WBC. if Nonito Donaire wants to keep his belt he'll have no choice but to proceed with the fight and defend his title. it is my first time hearing about Reymart Gaballo. I would love to see his performance against the titleholder veteran. Yup, that's the power of this governing body, they can issue mandatory title fight, although we really don't like him facing Reymart Gaballo who is no name as far as the weight class goes. But still all Filipino clash, I have Nonito winning by knockout by left hook or by landslide unanimous decision. Gaballo got to fight Nonimo because of his win against Emmanuel Rodriguez. For the record it should be Nonito vs Rodriguez last year December, but Nonito tested positive for Covid-19 and then Gaballo step up against Rodriguez and won. He would remain no name if he doesn't fight a boxer like Nonito Donaire. Gaballo is an undefeated fighter, now, he has a golden opportunity to prove that he can make a name, and beating one of the best boxers in the Philippines, I think that's a big success at his age. 25 years old is still young but matured enough to proved to the world that he can be a champion, so I'll definitely watch this fight but not gonna side on who will win as they are both Filipino. |
