NBA power ranking report. https://www.cbssports.com/nba/powerrankings/*Keep in mind that our Power Rankings are based on the team's performance the previous week, not the entire season. 1, Nets 2. Jazz 3. Bucks 4. Clippers 5. 76ers 6. Suns 7. Nuggets 8. Trail Blazers 9. LA Lakers 10. Mavericks. I only take the top 10 in the ranking. Liking the Jazz and Nets as they stay consistent, whiel 76ers also have some great performance despite missing Embiid. Just because of Lebron having some injury, the stat made became lower for the Lakers. No doubt about the Nets and the Jazz. There's no question on them being at the top. I think that list is fair enough if we're going to look at their matches and stats. That's a weekly report, that could change next week or the succeeding weeks, but one thing is sure, as long as no injury in a certain team, they will not easily slide down on ranking, Nets is already consistent despite of some injury but Bucks and Jazz will remain consistent in the following weeks. BTW, let's look at the Nuggets, they are in win streak now and Gordon is a big piece of their success.

A player that is very strong at the paint and at the same time, a good three point shooter? Hello Giannis or Hello AD . Well, this will be a big improvement for him if he will try to pull this one out in the league. We already know that despite of his height disadvantage over other bigs in the league, he is a great player inside the paint that is why he is "Muscle Man". As per my opinion, the roster of Phoenix has already bigs that can shoot threes such as Perkins, Chua and Manuel if he will be. Like @vaculin said, he can just stay at the paint and just generate points out there and shooting threes for him isn't necessary since we saw him dominating the paint many times already all throughout his career but can't blame if the team wants him to shoot threes then so be it. Lets just see if this will be a success or a fail. Probably the training for the Phoenix is for everyone, no exemption, every big man has to learn how to shoot 3s consistently so they are more dangerous, wat I admire most on the team is their defense, they have improve it already and I hope there will be more improvement in the season to come, if it will not be postponed due to the lockdown in some areas.

This is probably what Manny was talking with his latest update that he will be back this year with a big fight. https://tribune.net.ph/index.php/2021/02/12/pacquiao-give-me-crawford/“We told Bob I get $40 million and Crawford gets $10 million,” said Pacquiao, whose last fight was a stunning win over Keith Thurman in July 2019 in Las Vegas.
I believe if Crawford will take this fight, it will be the biggest paycheck of his career as a boxer. So what do you think about this fight, is it going to be the fight of the year? And did you know that this character Manny Pacquiao also advertises a huge GCOX exchange, which is clearly a scam? I know how many people have been duped into this? Gcox is still not listed and all that is left is an exchange that does nothing. A scam that looks like a teddy bear. I guess we should not put that conversation here and let's just talk about boxing, even Mayweather has advertise Centra that later turn into a scam. They are even charge by the SEC _ https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2018-268I agree with you, we should talk about boxing here, if Manny has promoted such a scam exchange or project, then maybe we have already read some news that he was charge for it, but AFAIK, there has been no news like that.

Today's market is good and many altcoins now increased tremendously. No one can predict that the market now is better than last 2018. Market is unpredictable maybe next month they would fall or maybe will increased again and BTC meet $80k dollars, who knows we should watch out for it.
Not only watch out for it but we also have to ensure that we trade on it if we have the intention to make money. The market is bullish, it's a good timing to do short term trade as the market is more volatilie now, easier for trader to be profitable, as per my observation, the trend is more bullish so using a simple technque which is buying at dip would 90% work in the current situation.

Received, thanks! Not sure if you've seen it yet, but there's a spreadsheet tab on the lending spreadsheet specifically for your loan that tracks all partial repayments. I didn't know that, thank you for sharing that spreadsheet, it's easier for me to track my loan balance now.

Any early picks? Where's Reid? I noticed you are not anymore sharing your pick here, are you taking a little break buddy?
Sorry, had been busy recently. I already made my order and it's the usual. Denver Nuggets -5.5 Aaron Gordon's Nuggets debut is looking great. 13 points already at 3rd quarter. Nice game by him so far, I think 20 points is easy in this game that they are dominating the Atlanta Hawks. It's necessary that Jokic will focus a lot on scoring, they already have Gordon now aside from Murray. Nice points distribution so far among the starters. Over 219.5
Looking good too.

Andre Drummond is now officially a Laker!
Had to make sure I was the first one to break the news this time. Finally, the Lakers have a true center and will most certainly make for some NBA Finals competition! I’m excited. Great day for Lakers fans and the NBA!
Ok so after so much speculation, although majority of us thinks that he will really go to the Lakers, now it's official. He needs to get his body ready as a Laker, they are the defending champs and hope he will be vital for the team to at least make it competitive in the West. They are not 4th and just won their last game, losing 3 though in their last 4 games. At this point this is getting kind of stupid. A coue all star teams and everyone else. The Nets situation is rediculous, now when everyone is healthy on the Lakers another redicullus team. Sorry but its the jazz and Lakers in the west and the nets in the East (so long as everyone is healthy) and then the rest of the NBA. Its gonna get boring if this is the way it is. Honestly I miss the 80s and 90s nba where the best players wanted to play against each other and not with each other. Made for a balanced nba and great rivalries. This is getting to be a joke... I'm with you man, though I love the Lakers and the Nets, but I don't like how greedy they are to form a super team just to win a championship, players can't be blame here, it should be the management of the NBA who should make an action to this, its' killing the excitement for some teams knowing we have a super teams which most of us will follow. One team, one superstar, I guess that would be enough, if we look at the Nets line up, there starters are all ALL STAR players.

4 games. Therefore my pick is over 228.5.. an OT is also possible, betting also on that. Good luck.
Looks good. I think I am going for Hornets vs Suns. Therefore, I pick Suns -5.5. No injury reports. I wish we won't see a last minute change of mind/health from players. Last 2 games of Suns are close games against the Raptors and Magic. Let's see if against Hornets will be different. Early game huh.. too bad Suns did not cover the spread, they only manage to win by 4 points, hence they failed to cover. Hoping that the over will hit, I'm riding on it as well, I like these two, they usually played a past pace game and more 3 point shooting attempt.

1st & 2nd Fight: Joshua, that's my vote.
No one voted for that because all you guys in favor of Fury, well, let me vote for that as Joshua is also a legit champion. Fury was impressive in the 2nd fight vs Wilder but Wilder looks exhausted, maybe Joshua is different and he can beat the gypsy king.

As I have previously commented on the subject about the Covid-19 effect, we are not sure, but this time it was evident that Povetkin was negatively affected.
If my memory serves me right, the last high profile fight we have seen with one boxer infected by the virus, recovered and push the fight is Miguel Berchelt. He also lost in this fight and something is odd with him that night as was really off, below average punches and then the eventual knock out from Oscar Valdez.
Povetkin might retire soon, he looks so old in this fight and it seems like he easily get tired. Well, the favorite to win was Whyte so its expected but probably the virus still affected him especially his stamina in the fight. I thought Povetkin would at least give a good fight, but it turns out the first fight was way better than this fight.

5% allocation for retirement is not that risky, as long as they understand the risk, it's always worth a shot.
Not sure how they'll act during the bear market as 99% that time will come, but hopefully that would not affect their future as they made a decision during the bullish market, things could be different during the bear market especially if it will take too long before the market will start to recover again.

How can the exchange sell an altcoins which doesn't exist?
I mean it's only possible if the exchange itself is the creator of the coin, like yobit which they can manipulate their own exchange to give way to their useless coins. I don't understand to be honest, kindly elaborate more please.

Here is a good write up by one of boxing prominent writer with his prediction of the fight. Alexander Povetkin-Dillian Whyte II: Stats & Stakes Anything really can happen when good big men square off and Whyte has the size, power, and youth to win this one. Whyte may even have Povetkin down again at some point. The thinking here though is Povetkin won’t have grown ancient since last summer. Having seen Whyte once, Povetkin isn’t going to find the data having changed all that much. Whyte’s defensive liabilities remain. Eventually, Povetkin finds an opening and repeats with another stoppage. https://www.boxingscene.com/alexander-povetkin-dillian-whyte-ii-stats-stakes--156441I'm going Whyte here though, so goodluck to all the bettors. Same here but i'm betting that he would knockout Povetkin early because if the fight prolong, the chances of a repeat is very high. Whyte should not let Povetkin built the confidence, he should let the latter felt his power early in the fight. Few hours before fight time, take your pick now guys . Thanks for this pick @bisdak40 , I don't know if there will be a KO win by Whyte but you have a point, he needs to win convincingly in this rematch and winning within that rounds will bring back the trust of his fans. This rematch is going to be more exciting than the first one, Whyte will try to even up the fight, it's a huge disaster if Povetkin will repeat that huge uppercut, I hope one of our members here could drop the link to the live feed of the fight many will like to see this fight's live feed, this fight is going to end in a knock out, because of the power both fighters have.
Hopefully it will be exciting, I'm sure boxers will be more careful especially Whyte. Also hoping for a free live streaming. please share here.

The site looks good but I'm afraid I will not try them as they don't haven an active ANN thread in the forum, it would be easier to check their reputation if they have an ANN thread, so hopefully someday they will start if they want to gain a community here.

Another win by the Nets though, James Harden again, pouring 40++ points against Detroit. A lot of emotions specially Blake Griffin playing against his former team. He did have 17 points. Not enough time for Detroit to at least force the game into OT.
A huge improvement by Griffin from his previous game which he only scored 2 points. I hope this will continue, Griffin contributing at least 15 points per game, with some rebounds as well, I think hat would be big enough as a contribution. Yeah, he is slowly getting into his rhythm with Nets, coach Nash is doing good at phasing Blake at this point in his career. I will not be surprised to see him getting good numbers in the playoffs if his body is also improving. 15 points per game will be a big help. He is also playing good defense, then taking a rebound. Good acquisition, and hopefully he can get his first ring too. Nice game by Blake Griffin, I was not able to see the game and have not watch the highlights of the game yet. Had he made another dunk shot in this game? Blake if he will stay healthy would be a big help for the Nets, he has not become a champion but he has a lot of playoffs experience way back when he was till playing with the Clippers, probably his best team so far, but maybe Nets will be his best team if he will win a championship here.

although this possibility is low and probably won't happen. but I want to ask you. if the bear market starts next month, and bitcoin falls below 20k. which altcoins were still able to survive and which altcoins are feeling the big impact of the bear trend.
we exclude stablecoins, because after all the market situation this coin will definitely be stable.
so I think Ethereum can still survive and that Ripple will be one of the biggest impact altcoins during the bear market.
The chances are very thin that BTC will fall below 20K but you never know this is crypto space any thing can happen any time,. All technical gurus believe that BTC will stay above 50K and strong possibility exists that it might hit 70K during 2021. As long as BTC stays above 50K, the alts will continue performing. I think Polkadot, ADA, LINK and LTC are good projects and they have not shown their real colour as yet. We might see good rally in these alts in coming weeks and months. At the current situation it could be slim, but basing on the history, that is so possible as bear market could make the price go dump further. BTC dropped $3,000 if people still remember during the last bear market, so $20k from $60k or $70k if btc achieve it is not impossible, not even a thin chance as you were saying.
