Lakers are already rebuilding since the last years of Kobe but they failed. They should not dump Lebron as this team will get nowhere. The Lakers are a total dump before Lebron arrived. They just need to tweak some things like the failure of Vogel to distribute a good playing time to his players. When Lebron is not playing, look how bad they are.


Lebron did his best but his team really sucks. He is also not stat-padding as his usual average even before. Almost the entire of his teammates are not consistent. I can't say the reason is that they just allow Lebron to make players as to when he is not playing, they still trash even against a lower seed team.

Unfortunately that they didn't use Anthony Davis much this season because him being prone to injury. Kendrick Nunn also robbed them lol.

Had my days crossed now the auction ends tomorrow night 

As crypto hits the mainstream, more businesses and companies are joining the game. We've seen innovations from NFTs to security tokens, and stablecoins. Most of the coins being traded on the market have smart contract functionalities, making them multi-purpose platforms for real world use. While all of this sounds nice, there's been an increasing rate of centralized exchange dominance over the past years. Not only that, but alternative cryptocurrencies (altcoins) have been prioritizing convenience on top of decentralization in order to provide people with lower fees and blazing-fast transaction confirmation times.

Most recently, Lightning Labs announced the creation of a new stablecoin that will operate in its "Taro" platform. If companies start to embrace stablecoins on top of traditional cryptocurrencies, then the whole industry will become heavily centralized. This should be a cause of concern, as a full government crackdown (or ban) could mark the end of crypto's prominence in the mainstream world.

Do you think ever-increasing centralization is a cause of concern? What would be the impact of tightening regulations over the entire crypto/Blockchain space? Will it still be able to survive? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Crypto can't survive without a bear market, if not everything will remain at one spot and no reason to invest anymore what is the best strategy to prepare for a bear market and at the same time keep making a profit from the present market condition.

 Imagine a world where Lakers get wiggins and some draft picks and whatever filler they can. In exchange for that Warriors get Lebron. I mean not only he is good enough even at that age, but dude would be the perfect player to play in that team. Just give him the ball, and watch him pile up assists like crazy. This isn't just lebron though, like rondo could do that even at this age, but his position is filled with curry, lebron is a great big that can pass, he could play the small ball line up as well. I mean this is just unreal for Warriors if it were to happen, would change the way a bit but could still be awesome for sure. Would love to watch that before he retires, dude could have like 12-13 assists per game avarages realistically and reach like 20 assists multiple times if he ever played there.

Nothing really stands out today, especially with all of those players being rested, rotations, and most teams having nothing to play for so close to the end of the regular season...not ideal. Still, i've opted to go with R. J. Barrett in my ticket as i did with my last/previous player prop:

∆ R. J. Barrett 25+ PRA / O. Toppin 25+ PRA / R. J. Barrett 1+ 3pt @1.60 ∆

O. Toppin has covered the line in the three games he started for Randle. RJ is routinely getting 20+ shot attempts each game, and he's been on the ball a lot more with Randle out recording 13 assists in their last two games. He's made at least one three-pointer in 14 straight games and has attempted 20 in their previous two.

Jericho Sims O9.5 rebounds seem to be a good punt as well since he will be in the starting lineup for the second game in a row. Wizards are ranked near the bottom of the league in rebounds against opposing centers.

∆ K. Durant 25+ pts / R.J. Barrett 20+ pts / A. Burks 1+ 3pt @1.68 ∆

I kinda missed out on Durant O28.5 points (line is now up to 30.5), so we go with a parlay instead. KD dropped 53 points the last time the Nets and Knicks played, i'm hoping he lights up MSG today, considering he took the day off against the Rockets yesterday. Knicks will be without Randle which means 20+ shot attempts for R.J. I'm also throwing Burks in there to make at least one 3pt, dude's averaging 3.2 3pt at .485 3pt%/L10, so he should be good for one.

It is not just about how Lakers is losing neither, I mean they are losing and it is a hilarious thing to see them do this badly when everyone talked about how they were fighting for championship at the start of the season. But the funny thing is, Spurs keep on winning as well. This is a team that has 34 wins total, and they got 8 of them in the last 10 games as well .

It's like Spurs tried to tank at first, but realized how bad Lakers were, and said "how about we do a final push and go to playing tournament instead of Lakers?" and did exactly that. No team that is at 10th end up getting 80% win rate this late into the season that easily, it is quite incredible to see.

Which do you think is better? Sell all GPUs to start staking ETH for annual return or keep GPU and keep mining other coins?.

A lot of us are confused about the whales behind the altcoin blockchain, for the fact that the ethereum blockchain brought with it the ability for any programmer to make change to the blockchain which has given birth to several developments and new coins, tokens creation so the question is who are the whales behind the altcoin market development.

The Lakers are honestly so bad this season, it's not funny.

There is a real chance that LeBron/AD leaves this offseason through a trade of sorts. I'm not sure why any other team would take them but they would potentially offer some upside for championship contenders that have the cap space.

Either way, at least the other L.A. team (Clippers) will be making the play-in tournament. Hopefully they can win a few series.

Certainly. Stats base he is down by a high percentage. His shooting is also unacceptable but he still have the agility to attack the paint which we can still witness up until now. Teams on the lower seeds now will just risk it with the draft for a younger player and not expensive rather than an old one with his contract intact.
A good comparison of a difference is CP3 and WB. Both do not have a championship yet and with high stats on their prime but I think most team owners would pick the former. Even OKC did great when CP3 was inserted in it and even went to the playoffs with no chemistry whatsoever just the leadership.

Lakers should have stayed with the old roster that won them a championship. Trading a bunch of players for Westbrook turns out a bad idea. Now, their season is over (although not officially) and they need to make changes for the next season, and I'm guessing that WB will be traded again.

That's a fact, most fans created a huge expectation with this current Lakers roster (including me), that's clear, most fans were already imagining a final between Lakers and Nets.

Basketball is a box of chocolates, anything can happen. Including Lakers' with poor performance, several players injured during the regular season and there was not that chemistry that "everybody" expected with this ""Dream Team" of the Lakers.

Why not though? its the ML odds for the Spurs is very attractive then maybe it's good to put a small to medium bet on them and then have a + handicap bet as well. I don't think they will want to intentionally lose a game because it's gonna be disgusting for NBA fans but maybe they will rest some of their starters here.
