Jon Jones and Dana White had problems some years ago because Jon Jones was asking for 30 million dollars salary and Dana was refusing that. Then, Jon Jones left the UFC and recently he returned back. This makes me think that they have figured out the problem and agreed on something that benefits to both of them and in their case it's money for sure. So, Dana White is a guy who admires money and he will milk Jon Jones for sure and from a marketing standpoint, it's really very possible to see Jon Jones VS Stripe Miocic but from marketing standpoint, Jon Jones VS Ngannou would be the best. To be honest, I think nor Dana White, nor Jon Jones are afraid to fight anyone. Dana wanted Jon Jones vs Tyson Fury and Jon Jones vs Ngannou and if we keep in mind how talented Jon Jones is, even still at his age, he is unbeatable. This guy reminds me Diego Maradona from football world, guy was obese, always high and in his 50s and still was doing wonders with the ball. What can I say more, he was a pure talent and Jon Jones is a pure talent too in mixed martial art world. And keep in mind that man's prime doesn't end soon when it comes to fighting, especially for the one who is the goat.

For sure I believe that there is no other reason for Jon Jones to be back in the UFC, and Dana White just needs time to think about it but yeah it was surely all about money for sure, and that injury from before was just not what Dana White is expecting but it surely happens, and if the Tyson Fury VS Jon Jones could happen then that would be big money for both the UFC and Jon Jones, but I think Tyson Fury might be thinking carefully after his fight with Francis Ngannou, but it will depend if Tyson Fury will approve it, for sure if Jon Jones can win against Fury then what Francis Ngannou did will be worthless,



I was really happy with my bet results and for sure it was a perfect bet for me now here are the results and what happened with the UFC Fight Night Vegas 82 now the results

Brendan Allen VS Paul Craig ROUND 3 SUBMISSION - WIN

Brendan Allen was an exciting fighter to watch as well, Paul Craig got his defense in place at first but Brendan Allen did not stop with his pursuit with his submission. Allen dominated the fight in both stand-up and on the ground and Brendan did seem to get into the full mount on Paul Craig, even though Craig was defending the submission of Allen, Brendan Allen still got his great position on the ground, and gave Craig, not a crazy ground and pound but a very effective for sure an intelligent ground and pound for Allen, and for sure that submission Paul Craig have given his back to Allen and it was a dominant win for Brendan Allen,

Jake Matthews VS Michael Morales ROUND 3 DECISION - WIN

Another step-up win for Michael Morales even though it was a decision win for sure seeing the fight Michael Morales got amazing accuracy with his striking and was sure he remained undefeated Michael Morales was accurate with his distance and found an opening against Jake Matthews, and both have defended each takedowns and both fighters have shot only 1 takedown but for sure Morales gaining the upperhand with his striking and being consistent with his striking and sure I was right with my decision,

Amanda Ribas VS Luana Pinheiro ROUND 3 KO/TKO - WIN

The taller Amanda Ribas at 1st was getting a hard time against Luana Pinheiro but she made an adjustment with the fight for her to get back with the scoring, she targeted a Knockout for this fight with a very accurate Spinning kick to the face to knockout Luana Pinheiro for sure and for sure Amanda Ribas didn't stop until she is now winning the fight at first I really thought that Ribas will lose this fight because the 1st round was really imminent that she has gotten great shots from Pinheiro but still Amanda Ribas was victorious with that Spinning kick that Knockout Pinheiro,

I could potentially be envious of his result for sure because he had a perfect win while I also got a Perfect, but not by winning but losing because that would be a great amount of profit if I could potentially go with all the underdogs but not with the Golden State Warriors because, after the Choking incident and injury on Stephen Curry, they suck again, and if I try to bet against them they will eventually bite my A$$ because they will start winning again, but anyway just letting the frustration out and here is my perfect losing result for the game yesterday,

Chicago Bulls VS Miami Heat SCORE 102 - 97 - LOST

The Miami Heat is doing fine at the beginning of the game it was crazy as I thought I could potentially win this game which was proven wrong, as the 1st half will be for the Heat but eventually, it will bite me for sure as the Chicago Bulls suddenly gain a tremendous amount of confidence which is expected for them as the 2nd half was for them and DeMar DeRozan is expected to be this good, Coby White got 14 points, Nikola Vucevic got 15 points, and DeMar DeRozan got 23 points winning this game for the Bulls,

San Antonio Spurs VS Memphis Grizzlies SCORE 108 - 120 - LOST

Rooting for Victor Wembanyama is never expected to be like this and just like with the Bulls VS Heat game the San Antonio Spurs are doing great in the 1st half having so much lead for this game but the Memphis Grizzlies have turned the table just like what the Chicago Bulls did with the Heat the Memphis Grizzlies manage to win, Ziaire Williams got 17 points, Santi Aldama has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 17 points, Desmond Bane got 26 points, and Jaren Jackson Jr. got 27 points,

Golden State Warriors VS Oklahoma City Thunders SCORE 123 - 130 - LOST

For sure it ended in overtime but still, the OKC Thunders managed to win sure Stephen Curry should be at a limited time for this game but sure the injury is still there, but yeah it was a close game that ended up miserably, Jalen Williams got 22 points, Chet Holmgren has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 36 points and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander got 40 points,

@ YuginKadoya - maybe you can call it chemistry issues with the Bulls, they they still have the core of Lavine, deRozan, Caruso and Vucevic, so they are still intact. But there might be internal problems that we might not be aware of and that's why this trade rumor surfaces.

Yup! probably that they have issues that we haven't seen as I think Zach LeVine is not a showy kind of guy and it is not likely to be seen in public but deep inside there could be a problem within the team, and yes there are some YouTubers are spreading the rumor's that the Chicago Bulls wants to trade Zach LeVine and that rumors might be true because it is spreading like wildfire and we all know the internet there is no stopping it getting into the team of the Chicago Bulls especially Zach LeVine,

The Lakers are “showing interest” in Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, & Alex Caruso. Basically, the Lakers are going to try all they can to get a win out of the Bulls need for a rebuild. With Anthony Davis having shown interest in going to Chicago, something big could be happening with this. Getting Zach LaVine and Caruso while dumping Anthony Davis would be a huge win for them in my book.

I really don't know about the Lakers if that is true but right now the Chicago Bulls might be rebuilding their team with newer ones as we all know the Chicago Bulls are now interested in the young ones as if they can get a talented one they can work from there in building the team and for sure that players don't need any max contract at all, so it will be less payment for sure but a low chance in getting into the playoffs or winning the finals for sure,

Easy game for Thunder. Warriors without Curry is already tasteless, they don't have Green as well. Klay plays awful and Payton is injured now. Warriors can only score with Looney and Kuminga, which is quite contradictional for them. Warriors can't compete against Thunder with only points in the paint. SGA started good, I expect an early Thunder win by 20+ points margin.

Stephen Curry did play but still, the Thunders won the game and my bets were quite awful this time as all of my bets were lost it was a frustration for sure but anyway, the Golden State Warriors got a really close game but Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has hand them down the big lost,

325  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: November 19, 2023, 02:02:35 AM

Seeing Leipzig in the top 4 is normal and I am happy that this team does not lose its consistency every season. However, sometimes there are things that will prevent them from maintaining that position and Wolfsburg will indeed be quite a difficult opponent to beat. But in general, Leipzig can handle it and will continue to keep their distance from Dortmund's pursuit. The season is still long and I see it as just normal competition in the Bundesliga and maybe if Leipzig slips up, Dortmund will make good use of this to shift their position from the top 4.

This Consistency is something for Leipzig to be proud of for sure but it also makes me wonder if they can continue it at the end of this season, but prove that they have been very popular in winning the DFB-Pokal as they did manage to win it last season, but after Wolfsburg defeated them it seems they become more vulnerable in getting out of that 4th standing but let's just wait for RB Leipzig to get this done again as last season RB Leipzig winning the championship for both DFB-Pokal and DFL-Supercup,


Its predictable, even every season, maybe we always get bored of seeing this dominance and I remember, not only you and most of the people who are fans in the bundesliga currently want the dominance to be replaced to see a new history that is more interesting to watch and on the one hand, see Leverkusen performance and Munich current ambitions are very different.
I mean currently Leverkusen will focus on matches in the bundesliga and the european league which are not very strong for Leverkusen while Munich has to compete in the UCL which is a tougher task for Bayern Munich because the competition will be very tight if they qualify for the last 16 and this opportunity will Leverkusen continues to take advantage of it and continues to provide more points so that Munich cannot catch Leverkusen points and hopefully your wish will come true.

For sure many are bored by the dominance of Bayern Munich actually, I think maybe I am the only one who still wants Bayern Munich to win the Bundesliga, but seeing SV Leverkusen's dominance in not getting lost it may be possible for a new team to sit on the throne in the Bundesliga, and maybe the Harry Kane curse might be real, but let's just wait actually I am really excited for the result this season, as it is interesting how Leverkusen can do in the last matchday for the Bundesliga,

I admit that Dortmund is considered one of the strongest clubs in the Bundesliga after Bayern Munich, but unfortunately this club always sells the valuable assets they have, such as very talented players who are always sold to other clubs and this is what makes Dortmund always unable to get first position in the points table. and on the one hand it seems like Dortmund aren't so keen on getting the title unless it's in the business of building new talent to sell.

I am guessing that Dortmund is not really after the championship seat, but they only after was the money, last season was really their chance to become champion in the Bundesliga but for some weird reason they let Bayern Munich do their stuff and make them a champion for this season, it was weird but again this is Bayern Munich after all, but Thomas Tuchel back then doesn't have Harry Kane back then and for this season now Leverkusen is now the threat on the Bundesliga which is surprising and interesting at the same time,

-snip-

a second chance Aspinal against Blaydes would be good to see if the knee surgeon did well. It is risky unless Dana puts Aspinaal back in the surgery room.
one thing is for sure: Aspinal is gonna get good fights he might be able to win if he fights with Cyril Gane or the new breed Jailton Almeida who doesn't move like a heavyweight. Iff Aspinal wants a fight he should insist Dana be active otherwise this is gonna be like the LHW too.

For sure if Tom Aspinall did recover correctly and if he can withstand another metal leg of Curtis Blaydes as they are literally Blades of steel, but sure it is a good fight for fans to see as the fight ended up in a horrible injury and it will be a great fight for fans to witness as for sure both fighters would want that to happen and enjoy a beer after the fight ends,



Here are my bets and predictions for this fight for the UFC Vegas 82

Brendan Allen VS Paul Craig

The odds for this fight are 1.26 for Brendan Allen and 4.30 for Paul Craig, for this fight I see Brendan Allen as more well-rounded than Paul Craig even though Paul Craig has really good Jui-Jitsu he is not that great with his offensive and defensive stand-up, and Brendan Allen got a great defensive Jui-Jitsu so for sure Paul Craig will have a hard time submitting Allen, he also got good takedown defense, for me although Paul Craig can submit any best fighter Brendan Allen is younger and fresher for this fight so my pick will be Brendan Allen,

Jake Matthews VS Michael Morales

The odds for this fight are 3.60 for Jake Matthews and 1.33 for Michael Morales, Jake Matthews for this fight has good boxing and wrestling let's say he is very well-rounded but I am doubtful about his wrestling defense for sure he can also be taken down and had a hard time with opponents that have wrestling and for sure Michael Morales will not going to have a hard time with him, Morales got solid striking and can hit harder than Matthews, and he also got good takedown defense aswell so my pick is Michael Morales,

Amanda Ribas VS Luana Pinheiro

The odds for this fight are 1.44 for Amanda Ribas and 2.95 for Luana Pinheiro, Both of these fighters for me fighting kittens, but for my bet, I am a little bit concerned here because Luana Pinheiro can hit harder for sure and she got good striking, and for sure Amanda Ribas isn't great with her striking but she got better output in this fight but I am sensing a copy of the fight of Jéssica Andrade against Mackenzie Dern, but for me, Amanda Ribas has decent stand-up defense and she can also break Pinheiro with a decision win so my pick is Amanda Ribas,

I hope for the safety of racing that we will not get another accident like we had today in Vegas and I do hope some sanctions will be applied to both FIA ( for not being 100% sure about safety of the track and manholes ) but also for the organizer of the race.

Also , the conclusion for Ferrari was the this " Carlos Sainz has received a 10-place grid drop for this weekend’s Las Vegas Grand Prix, with Ferrari forced to change a host of power unit components following first practice." This is awful for Ferrari and like I said , I do hope FIA will never put again a show in front of safety drivers.

Many are Disappointed about this Grand Prix sure and instead of the safety of the drivers they are prioritizing the Las Vegas event for sure, which is down-founded as the worst GP and we can not blame all that on FIA because for sure the place Las Vegas is something really is a big event but it become a disaster,

Now Ferrari is really disappointed that the incident was a disaster and it will surely get Ferrari huge damages and could also lead to Carlos Sainz losing his life because of what happened, this thing really is happening, and they should have canceled the event if they can not fully be fixed the track,

Max talked about Las Vegas being just a show and not a real race is right about it, but he should realize that Monaco was about that for 50 years, does he think that Monaco race is a proper race, there isn't even any proper places to have an overtake, it's famously difficult for overtakes and people just crash or pass each other by undercutting or even overcutting if they are lucky, and hope that the opponent has trouble at pit stop, that's not a real race, it's all about the money.

Or the time they had one f1 race have a bomb go off very near, at jeddah if I remember correctly, literally BOMB, and they still kept going, why? Because they needed the money from them, and kept going anyway, not to make the payers mad.

So all in all, Las Vegas is just another step in that direction, we are seeing F1 turn into just a money machine, and that's good, otherwise if they did what's "right" then max wouldn't get 50 million dollars a year that he is taking each season.

WOW! That is just dangerous for sure and after some digging and research that the drivers were really doubtful when making the event in parts of the Middle East, and this is a protest for the drivers many don't want to risk driving anymore into this dangerous place like this but knowing the big money is always involve whether a race will be held the F1 management have forcefully wanted the drivers to continue, but for sure some drivers are really unhappy in Driving on part of the middle east country,

We have the same results @YuginKadoya.
I never expected too much from the Golden State Warriors that's why I added the +5.5. I just want them to at least keep the game close which they did before the end of the 3rd quarter. A 19-point lead of the OKC Thunder cut to 7 points. But OKC is just too much for them especially without Steph Curry.

Miami Heat on the other hand is feeling the chemistry. Duncan Robinson especially, I love watching that guy when he is working that hard. I had my high hopes for him from the start but they went down when he was benched a lot by Coach Spo due to his low defensive skills. Now, he is better and I hope he can be consistent with it. His body figure also changed to more buffed and more muscles.

So sad indeed, but for sure we will get back what we lost in this next game for sure we try to bounce back what we lost, and so this is my bet and prediction for the games today for the NBA

Chicago Bulls VS Miami Heat

The stake odds for this game are 2.18 for the Chicago Bulls and 1.72 for the Miami Heat, right now Lonzo Ball has a knee injury and is out for this season, and Dalen Terry has a kneecap injury and is questionable if he is going to play for the Chicago Bulls while Tyler Herro got an ankle injury and R.J. Hampton got a knee injury and both players can not play for the Miami Heat, and for me even though the Miami Heat got 2 injury as long as it is not some main players for the team I think they can clear this out so my pick is the Miami Heat,

San Antonio Spurs VS Memphis Grizzlies

The stake odds for this game are 2.21 for the Spurs and 1.70 for the Memphis Grizzlies, right now Devin Vassell has a Thigh injury and Tre Jones has a Hamstring injury and both players are questionable if they can play for the San Antonio Spurs, while Luke Kennard and Derrick Rose both got a Knee injury and both are questionable if they can play for the Grizzlies, Steven Adams also has a knee injury but he is out for this season and Xavier Tillman, has a Knee injury Marcus Smart got a foot injury, and Brandon Clarke has Achilles injury and all of them can not play for the Memphis Grizzlies so for this game even though the San Antonio Spurs is the underdog but because of many injuries for the Memphis Grizzlies so my pick is the San Antonio Spurs,

Golden State Warriors VS Oklahoma City Thunders

The stake odds for this game are 1.95 for the Golden State Warriors and 1.89 for the Oklahoma City Thunders, right now Stephen Curry has a knee injury and is questionable if he can play for the Golden State Warriors, and Gary Payton II has an Ankle injury and can not play for the Golden State Warriors, while Cason Wallace has a shoulder injury and is questionable if he can play for the OKC Thunders for this game we got really injuries for the Warriors but because Stephen Curry can play limited hours I think it will be OK but for this game, I think the Golden State Warriors would have a hard time against the OKC Thunder and because Stephen Curry is coming back from an injury but I am still trusting them winning this game so my pick is the Golden State Warriors,

True @Yuginkadoya & @owengtam09
There are some good fights to see for this weekend's fight night even after the great two weekends we had for UFC 294 and 295.

None of the fights on the preliminary card jump out at me. But I will wait closer to the event to decide I will back.
For the Main Card I like Uros Medic and Luana Pinheiro. Am waiting to see Jordan Leavitt going against Chase Hooper as this one should be a good fight to close out the card going into the co-main and main events.

Now for this one I will be backing Morales and Craig.
These two have been having some good progress in their fighting IQ from the fights I have seen so far from these two.
So those are my picks for this stellar weekend's event in the UFC.

Yup! I will be going with the Main and the Co-Main Event for sure but the fight between Jordan Leavitt and Chase Hooper is enticing aswell, instead of going with that fight I will be betting for the fighting kittens Amanda Ribas and Luana Pinheiro both these fighters are a fighting kitten for sure, but for sure I will be going with Amanda Ribas,



Here are my bets and predictions for this fight for the UFC Vegas 82

Dana White doing business moves rather than the normal way. And as much as hardcore fight fans wanted an Aspinall-Jones fight, it's the casuals who will buy the bulk of PPVs and they will definitely buy the GOAT versus GOAT marketing. They don't even know Miocic is already past 40, came from a brutal defeat, and is years inactive.

Anyways, even before Jones won the heavyweight belt, I was doubtful of his ability to stay undefeated. His main assets which are his speed and length are no longer that advantageous at his age and in this division. So as much as possible Dana White will try to milk Jones before he loses or retires. Maybe we can see an Aspinall-Blaydes first before the interim belt holder gets his shot at the real title.

Well, I believed you from a marketing standpoint for sure the UFC and Dana White would still go with the Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic kind of fight and yeah maybe they are milking Jon Jones's popularity now and the UFC thinks the better way to milk him is to let him fight with an older fighter and a fighter that would likely be defeated easily and for sure Stipe Miocic is something like that and for sure many is believing that Jon Jones will easily defeat Miocic for sure, and I also think the same but what if Stipe Miocic win this what will happen with Jon Jones, and what will happen to Miocic do you guys think he would still fight or retire from there,

After seeing Tom Aspinall fight for sure because of Jon Jones's age and Tom Aspinall is now still in his prime this will be a hard fight for Jon Jones for sure, I really wish that Tom Aspinall would not get injured anymore,

-snip-

But it's just weird that the interim title holder isn't next in line to take on the champ when he returns.  I guess the UFC wanted both the legacy fight between Jones and Miocic and also earmark either Aspinall or Pav for the next shot at the title.  It's going to be a very intriguing match up between Jones and Aspinall.  I'd bet on the underdog whoever it may be.  If it's close to a coin flip then it's Jon Jones.

Anyway here's a short vid for 296.  Can't wait to see Pantoja back in there again.  

UFC 296:  Edwards vs Convington - Shots Fired
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLFN1Tb_tkM

For sure the UFC is moving in such mysterious ways that they still want the canceled fight to be rescheduled after Jon Jones's Recovers, but for now, I think Tom Aspinall is the king in the Heavyweight division, and for sure next fight for the Heavyweight to challenge the Interim Champion will be the winner of Ciryl Gane or Sergei Pavlovich or maybe even Curtis Blaydes for sure, I can not wait for Tom Aspinall to fight again,

My results for games today

Miami Heat VS Brooklyn Nets SCORE 122 - 115 - WIN

The Miami Heat did pretty well, from start to finish they looked great and for sure Emo Jimmy was getting all fired up in this game for sure Lonnie Walker IV and Mikal Bridge have done everything in their power to get this game into their favor but again Bam Adebayo, got 20 points, Duncan Robinson got 26 points and Jimmy Butler got 36 points making it a lead for the Miami heat indeed, and just like what I think that Jimmy Butler will be aggressive again for this game he surely made this game his own,

Golden State Warriors VS Oklahoma City Thunders SCORE 109 - 128 - LOST

Well, I really don't know why I still say that the Warriors are OK without Stephen Curry because for sure I forgot that Draymond Green also can not play for the team as well and he is suspended but sure as I have said there will be another player that will step-up from the occasion, and that is nonother than Jonathan Kuminga, but it wasn't enough for them to win this game and it ended up in a lost, but for sure the Oklahoma City Thunders made a great game for sure, Chet Holmgren has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 13 points, Jalen Williams got 16 points, Josh Giddey got 19 points Isaiah Joe got 23 points and Shai-Gilgeous-Alexander got 24 posts and losing this game for sure,

Now I know what I want if I ever get massive rich , right ? A dream come true to actually posses an F1 car even if it's replica , the sensation just to have it must be unique!

Until then, we have Las Vegas race this weekend and by the way it looks , this circuit won't favor Redbull but then again , we had a lot of circuits this year that didn't favor RedBull nor Max but somehow they managed to win the race , qualifiers and also get the extra point for fastest lap of the race. So yea , I won't bite the bait of Redbull not being favorites here.

Man! I would also love a replica of my own F1 machine, for sure a display purposed car is something unique in front of your house for everyone to see but if I could have a chance and I become super rich as well I would go and buy a engine for the car so I could also experience in driving it myself

And for sure you can see the difference between Max Verstappen to Sergio Perez, as there are many Circuit that favor the Red Bull machine you can see that Sergio Perez is struggling in most of those tracks while Max Verstappen is Grinding most of them like it was nothing, as we can see in most grand prix even though some circuit is not in favor for the Red Bull Max Verstappen has managed to triumph all of that,


Talking about some nostalgia in the F1 did anyone notice a biography series that dropped about the Brawn GP featuring Keanu Reeves? It is called Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story.
Just noticed a trailer about it with Button and the speed of light rise of the team with their first entry into F1 getting pole position and winning at their premiere race!
Here is that trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD6V9l4gOGE

Hadn't heard of them before as it was before my time of really getting into it but it was a team by Honda and sold to what looked like a bargain of a deal for £1!
"Brawn GP was formed on 6 March 2009 when it was confirmed that Ross Brawn, the former technical director for the Honda Racing F1, Ferrari and Benetton teams, had bought the team from Honda for £1 in the wake of the Japanese marque's withdrawal from the sport in December 2008." - source: wikipedia

Things are getting in full swing with these concerts and all the razzamatazz because it's Vegas Baby!

I haven't seen it yet but after I watched the trailer I headed and searched Brawn F1 on Google and to my surprise it was now renamed to Mercedes GP because  Mercedes-Benz, in partnership with Aabar Investments had purchased a 75.1% stake in Brawn GP, the team was formed by Ross Brawn of the Honda Racing F1 Team, so that white and yellow-green F1 machine was an original replica for Brawn GP for sure history is really interesting and maybe I will watch that if there are an available episode for sure,

I missed the NBA games yesterday and right now we have 2 games today so here are my bets and predictions for the games today

Miami Heat VS Brooklyn Nets

The stake odds for this game are 1.63 for the Heat and 2.34 for the Nets, for this game R.J. Hampton, and Tyler Herro can not play for the Miami Heat because of their injuries, while Ben Simmons and Cameron Thomas both got injured and can not play for the Brooklyn Nets, for this game because the Brooklyn Nets are further lower than with the Miami Heat and 2 best players for the Nets can not play Ben Simmons and Cam Thomas for me this is an opportunity for the Miami Heat to win against the Brooklyn Nets,

Golden State Warriors VS Oklahoma City Thunders

The stake odds for this game are 2.24 for the Warriors and 1.69 for the Thunders, for this game Stephen Curry has a knee injury and can not play for the Warriors while The Oklahoma City Thunders don't have any injuries, so this could be a win for the OKC Thunders but for me, I think if Stephen Curry were not playing for the team for me there would be one that will step up for sure like what happens with the Jordan Poole when there is no Stephen Curry to play there could be a player step-up, call me Crazy for still picking up the Warriors without Curry but I just got a feeling on this one,

Yeah, that was due to Giannis's dominant performance. Even though Lillard had returned to the lineup, you could tell he wasn't at 100% as he struggled in that game. It's still a positive for them, though, as long as Lillard is on the court, it inspires the team to play harder, especially when they have their full starting lineup.

Lillard had 12 points but 3-17 shooting?  Embarrassed

For sure if Giannis Antetokounmpo is in the court Damian Lillard is having trouble getting his rhythm this is due to the Milwaukee Bucks is not used to getting their main score if it is Lillard or Antetokounmpo, or Damian Lillard can not see his position if Antetokounmpo was on the court playing aswell but for sure this kind of problem will be easily fixed if the team's Chemistry will likely improve,

But in the last game of the Milwaukee Bucks against the Toronto Raptors yesterday Giannis Antetokounmpo did not play for the Milwaukee Bucks which is why the team then made Damian Lillard their main scoring player while Malik Beasley was the back up scorer for the team and it went well for sure,

There was a rumor that Zach Lavine might be in the trading block as per Shams,



https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1724506310274642161

The Bulls have been struggling in the last 2-3 years when they rebuild and got DeRozan, Caruso and Vucevic, however, they will start the season good but then lose that steam entering the playoff run and lost in the first round.

And the teams that pops up in the trade is Los Angeles Lakers. But now sure what kind of trade package it will be. LA looks solid at this point, but if they are interested of acquiring Lavine, then something has to be given up.

For sure they are a team that has played the game and was doing well regardless of who is playing for the team, for sure the Chicago Bulls is a great team right now regardless of who is their opponent, and just like the Milwaukee Bucks and the Los Angeles Clippers problem because of the newer players they are having Chemistry issues for sure if they can cut off a player on the team they will then get the chemistry for the team fixed a lot faster and will also cut of the money needed for the team if they will trade out Zach LaVine

Yes @YuginKadoya The track does look to favor Red Bull's machines on this layout.

Liberty media who brought F1 racing back to the Las Vegas strip after 40 years surely had some challenges to overcome to have it completed by 2023:

SHOCKING Challenges For Las Vegas GP!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4gbV-XjTXY

Well Even though the Track Layout isn't really that amazing in my opinion the spectacle while the drivers driving that track real spectacle was the vision for iconic landmarks like the Bellagio - MGM Resorts and the new MSG Sphere at night that is the promise while driving in this Circuit for sure when the race would start the roads towards the Track will be permanently close which there will be a lot of negative comments for the F1 and comparing it to the Covid-19 because of the lockdowns of some roads, during the race,

There is another challenge with Las Vegas GP - extremely low temperatures. Maybe it won't be coldest ever F1 race, but most likely coldest in modern era. All sessions will be held at night (qualifying at noon and race at 10 PM local time)and current forecast shows 8-9°C, but it may drop even to 5°C. So, there will be lot of struggle to keep tyre temperatures high.
Also, we in Europe have to prepare to get up early on weekend to watch it because here it will be early morning during qualification and race.

For sure night time will be a great spectacle for the drivers while driving toward the MSG Sphere and for sure night time is the only time when the Sphere is lit, while F1 banned three key colors from Sphere during the Vegas GP action and it was the colors yellow, red and blue, to avoid distraction from drivers,

Here is a rather interesting unboxing done by the famous guy at unbox therapy.
I would of posted this video yesterday when I noticed when it was put up on their youtube channel but had to go to work at the exact same time.
So enjoy!

You can own your very own F1 show car (engine not included of course) for a cool $250k. Cool


Pretty much a real replica of the Alpha Romeo for sure it is the beauty but I prefer to get a replica of the RB19 for sure if it was available the $250k price might be reasonable because it doesn't have any engine for sure, it fits the bill so much,

I was wrong.  Jones vs Miocic is still happening after Dana White announced it in the post fight press conference.  But it's funny because that would mean the interim belt doesn't mean anything and all they did at 295 was all for show.

But then again it's good that the UFC is still showing Miocic some respect and giving him his last title shot before retiring.  And it's gonna be a good pay day for him too. 

Anyway, here's jeremypwr's Multi Master.  Leeezz gooo!

UFC Fight Night 232:  Multi Master Challenge
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5473979.0

It was just an interim Heavyweight title and not the main Heavyweight title there for after the Stipe Miocic fight Jon Jones will surely fight Tom Aspinall next so they can unify the heavyweight belt when Jon Jones is all healed up for sure it will be in favor for Stipe Miocic, in getting him another shot and a cash money for the fight but the question is what if Stipe Miocic did win the fight,

But I really don't want to see the fight actually after Jon Jones recovered I want to see a Tom Aspinal VS Jon Jones fight instantly, and not get into Jon Jones VS Stipe Miocic but what can we do if the UFC really wants to give the guy a fight, well I think all we can do is just accept the fact that it is for a legend Stipe Miocic and for his last fight in the UFC,


This gets a little interesting. Adesanya is the middleweight champion and Perreira is the current LHW champion. In the past, Adesanya failed to achieve double championship when he fought with Blachowiz. One factor was Blachowiz's natural wrestling and weight taking away Adesanya's gas. I see this as Adesanya's chance to win Double Champ. It could be that Adesanya decided to return from his break because he saw someone he had beaten become champion in the division above him.

He decided to take a break after he lost his belt again and now to Sean Strickland in my opinion, he underestimated so much for sure, just because Sean Strickland got beaten by Alex Pereira that he has beaten doesn't mean that he will have the same thing and he will beat Sean Strickland with no problem which is not what he had in mind, for sure Israel Adesanya was shocked by the result,

The problem are the new players. Union Berlin had previously brought in unknown players. Or well-known players who have not been in the A-Team at the respective club for a long time. They have slowly integrated these players into the team and built them up. With the purchase of Gosens and Fofana, they have broken with this philosophy. They were allowed to play straight away and the players who had always played last season sat suddenly on the bench. That brought turbulence into the entire team. If there is then a lack of success, the first cracks appear in a team-unit that has not grown together.

But now we will see a new coach who will be able to deal with that.

Whatever the worst reason behind Union Berlin becoming a sudden great team to the worst they ever are is something that many are curious about this might be a sudden increase with the other team roster and I could be right about Union Berlin being a fraud and that they are just lucky getting the upper standing last season, for sure Union Berlin was like Leverkusen back then but now the performance has shifted for sure,


With what is happening now, it seems like there is no longer any hope for the Union Berlin team other than them improving this team on a large scale, but I think changing the coach is not something that guarantees changes for the better.
Maybe Union Berlin's management should provide and implement other options to be able to lift this team from its downturn, bringing in as quality players as possible.
But to be honest, I am very surprised by Union Berlin's performance this season, they are getting worse than last season, this is something that rarely happens to teams, they should be able to improve and get better from what happened last season.

I think returning to the 2nd Division of the Bundesliga isn't really bad after all and that will be their faith from that I guess they will regroup again and form a new and stronger team for sure because they are not doing so well in this division maybe this is an opportunity for them returning to the 2nd Division and prepare for the next season on the Bundesliga, and because the other teams have a spark of performance this season I really think Union Berlin can not compete even further anymore,

It definitely too early to decide the champion, so many things have changed in this season just as if they substituted each other, take a look at union Berlin that finished last season in fourth position are now in last position when match is still in 11 game while VfB Stuttgart that were battling not to relegate are now sitting comfortably in third point living behind second runner-up of last season with two points interval and Leipzig in the fourth position have one point in between, VfB Stuttgart performance this season show how serious the want to make it to champion league next season.

You have a point we are now in Matchday 12, getting into it and for sure there will be many who may disapprove of this as there are some that would like Union Berlin to improve instead of kicking the bucket and get back in the 2nd division,

the hamburger sv can't win any more games away from home and is still in second place in the 2nd bundesliga . as you can see : the other teams don't do so much better .
good that the hsv has another home game on the next matchday . the hsv should normally win against eintracht braunschweig .
st.pauli has to play in rotock . that will also be an exciting match .
and the two fan groups can meet again outside the stadium to show who has the better arguments  Grin Grin


source:https://int.soccerway.com/national/germany/2-bundesliga    


For sure Hamburger SV has a great problem with away matches and right now they can not elevate even further because of the lack of wins right now because FC St. Pauli has the same winnings as Hamburger SV and has 6 draws now they still don't have any losses yet, they just manage to get a game they have in a draw instead of losing it, but eventually, if they want to win the 2nd Division they need to gain more winnings

This is my return to the 2nd Bundesliga Discussion I see that Schalke is now having a hard time winning in this division and so for sure they are not a team to be in the Bundesliga because of their poor performance in this league, I think i will get on with it again and review the games for most of the teams and from there so I can get a read on who's going to win a game,

For myself, the fight that impressed me the most was Diego Lopes.
Being the underdog against Pat Sabatini in the time it took him to knock him out like he did, It was a great look for him at being a successful top prospect.
I think up to that point on the fight card, every favorite so far was winning on the night.

So only Diego and Andrade were the ones who defied the odds and won their matches and easily at that.
With Dern getting knocked down 4 times during the match and the referee finally called it off and Jessica Andrade got a TKO win @2.95x odds last I looked right before the fight started.

For sure he will do even more in the future, and getting a great crew like that is really helpful to most fighters sometimes they need some other advice to make them great they will be the ones that would research and will sure analyse the situation at hand and what kind of Strategy they could used or approached one great example in my opinion was the fight or Alexa Grasso against Valentina Shevchenko their 1st fight that is for sure great execution on what they want to achieve but the 2nd fight for me was not really in favor for her, but that 1st fight that was really awesome and for sure in addition to that Valentina Shevchenko underestimated Alexa Grasso for sure,

UFC Fight Night 232 Multi-Master Challenge is open guys.

UFC Vegas 82: Allen vs Craig - November 18 | Fight Promo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hc50fL6vxGE

Brendan Allen is on his 5 winning streak. Will he make it 6? He is the favorite at 1.26 and Paul Craig is the underdog at 4.00 despite his win against Muniz last July.

I only have 3 prospects on my betting line for now that I am about to make into a parlay.
Amanda Ribas @1.42
Michael Morales  @1.38
Brendan Allen @1.26
=2.47. Not bad.

Good luck everyone.

Whoa! I like your picks danherbias07 Michael Morales is a great prospect and sure he has the punching strength that could rock Jake Matthews yes the fighting kitten Amanda Ribas is one stunning fighter for sure but Luana Pinheiro is quite an interesting opponent as well so this could be a challenge for her but I guess on paper she will prevail in this fight for sure, and for the Main Event Brendan Allen is sure the favorite and I also like his style for sure great in the Brazilian Jui-Jitsu,

Bayer had no problems with Union Berlin, a confident, expected victory. So far, Bayer has managed to maintain good results and perhaps the situation will only change in December, when they will have to play Dortmund and Stuttgart. But their results so far have been impressive, having won almost every match since the start of the season, except for a draw with Bayern at the Allianz Arena. And Dortmund dropped to fifth place after the defeat from Stuttgart...

Bayer Leverkusen was really tough as I think they are now the main problem for Bayern Munich and not Dortmund anymore and for sure Union Berlin is not that big a team any more like they used to be last season. The Next game for Bayer Leverkusen was against Werder Bremen on November 25, right now just like Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen doesn't have any losses but they got 1 Draw Bayern Munich has 2 draws, but for sure Bayer Leverkusen will have a problem of Bayern Munich for sure,


Bayer Leverkusen's comfortable win against Union Berlin during the weekend further tells that the the league leaders are seriously in contention to win the German Bundesliga title this season.
Xabi Alonso have been absolutely incredible with his tactical approach and discipline in the Bayer Leverkusen team and that's why I think they're strong opponents to end Bayern Munich's dominance in the league if only they can continue with their current performance

For sure it was an easy win for Bayer Leverkusen to get 4 goals against Union Berlin, but right now I really don't want to say that Bayer Leverkusen will win the German Bundesliga Champion just because he is the leader in the position right now Because Bayern Munich is still not stopping and destroying every team they encounter for sure but Harry Kane is on the team if Harry Kane keeps on improving so much and inside Bayern Munich for sure they will get this eventually,


Bundesliga became bored and uninteresting when Bayern Munich remained the only team that lifted the league crown with so much ease effort, the only contender they has was Borrusia Dortmund who have fallen our of the race. Bayern Munich have dominated Bundesliga and have remained Champions in the past decades, there's more work for Thomas Tuchel to do this season. He's having present challenge with Xabi Alonso who have proven a competent contender for the Bundesliga championship this season, we will witnessed top performance between both teams this season. Xabi Alonso have become one of the prominent coach for Bayer Leverkusen this season. There's a whole lot of action to watch from Leverkusen this season.

I agree with you in the past Bayern Munich was the only dominant team in their dominance, but that all changed when Robert Lewandowski left the team and that was the start of the end of the dominance for Bayern Munich while last season the start of the dominance for Dortmund that season and almost won the Bundesliga championship, but right now Bayer Leverkusen looks dominant but for sure Bayern Munich will eventually will see their opening,
