Let's see how Steve Nash will work for it. I just hope their good role players who played at their best when their superstars are not there will also be utilized too.

Dinwiddie will be the key factor.
Let the freaking 2 injury stars take their rest and just play 20 minutes per game and stay with the roleplayers chemistry.
Nash should not lean with KD and Kyrie.
Stretch on using roleplayers because they are really good.
 Allen, LeVert, Harris. Those names are now known with their hard work and efforts in playoffs.

It's not a tough competition in the East, so Durant and Kyrie can play with limited minutes without worrying on the team's standing. They just have their best player back in the game, that's a confidence booster for the team even though he is playing with limited minutes only.

^^ Maybe they can co-exist like the Blazers, like Lillard and McCollum. Or Paul with handle the ball all the  time as their point guard and Booker as more on the scoring side and it will also take a lot from his shoulder the distribution load. So we might see Booker scoring advantage for next season increase by some margins. As compare to Harden and Westbrook who are pure scorer so it's really hard to put them on the same team.

Paul knows how to adjust we know that, wayback from the old clippers where he played alongside with Griffin. He knows how to adjust with his roles. Like how you compared with Blazers this two stars can co-exist as the 1-2 punch have a good advantage in terms of making points. Bookers shows great season from the last bubble.

With CP3 the load of playmaking will be remove from him, allowing him to focused from where he really good at. Booker will keep doing he's job with a good mentor veteran like CP3, it will be depends from how both players will adjust and try to meet both expectations  the results will favor the team.

Paul doesn't have to adjust as he is still having the same role which is a point guard, that is his masterpiece and he knows how to draw a defense and to find an open man. I followed his career and I'm so impressed with him as in every team he played, they always go to the playoffs.
3383  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did anyone try to "gamble" with ponzi scheme crypto scam services? on: November 17, 2020, 11:11:17 AM
I never really gambled in a ponzi scheme I think, I lost some money on fake online casinos a few years back. But I think they weren't ponzi schemes, they were outright scams. People can definitely make money on a ponzi scheme if they invest in the beginning and get out before the company goes bankrupt. In general I would advice against such gambles because you never know when the bubble is going to burst.

My general advice is don't invest in investment schemes that are unsustainable or will end up as scam. Once you become aware that such scheme are unsustainable and people below will likely not be paid then don't join them otherwise participating in scheme you know will end up bad is immoral/illegal

There's no business that would sustain in the long run if they will provide a too good to be true reward, they are just built to scam people, some last longer but that is because they are still able to collect money from investors but in the long run they will just run away with big money.

It should not be supported or promoted, we don't want to participate this kind of gamble, it's a scam.

Paul George is injured way back and I think it could really affect his full potential in playing basketball. Kawhi is a  scorer and not really a good leader that can carry a team like Lebron James. CP3 is way better among the players ecen Rudy Gobert. This guy is explosive and unpredictable with his moves and that he is a playmaker. I think they could be one of the best team in NBA next season but for now it so hard to beat the Lakers with Lebron and Davis and other leading scorers in the team.
I won't compare Kawhi to Lebron, they are good in their individual skills and uniqueness. The comparison of them is unnecessary although as a fan, we like to do it and always see some holes from the other than the good performance and records of the other.

But there's one thing that we can have them in comparison, both reached and taken a championship with the help of their teammates not just by individual skill alone.

Every superstar is helped by their teammates because this is a team game, no matter how good they are, there's still people who should step up on the role to help them, not only the players, but the entire coaching staff as well, it's a teamwork in short.

Lebron vs Leonard if compared individually, you already know who's better, and it's obviously Lebron based on the stats.

Numbers don't lie!

Why people are now comparing about Leonard and Lebron? Kawhi is good but i dont see that he would really level up with Lebron in terms of statistics and achievements.

When it comes on carrying the team then thats an another topic to discuss on and as mentioned where all these things cant really be attained without the help of your team mates.

You might be a playmaker or does have the skills but proper coordination and teamwork would be the key to win or success.

That's what I'm saying, for individual achievement, Lebron has achieve a lot already.

I think we can check this stats to end this discussion.

I agree with that and all of them are true.

But that's not the point of what I'm trying to tell. As I'm telling you that they are both goods on their own terms. Kawhi managed to get a championship unexpectedly but he has proven himself.

While Lebron did it several times.

No argue with that but I'm only saying that don't also ignore the greatness of the other.

Of course, Leonard is great also, but we are comparing him to Lebron James and I'm talking about the statistics where Lebron is currently breaking record of the greatest basketball of all time, and we can understand that as Lebron started his journey first in the NBA before Leonard came in.

Try to compare their championship achievement, Lebron wins but we can credit that to teams's effort.

Compare Lebron total points, rebounds, assisst, block, etc against Leonard, that we will know which is better.

That's individual stats I'm talking.

Actually hold is a good step to take so much profit,
True, that's why it's "HODL" since it's a long term hold hoping in the long run, the project will improve and developed so it will become more valuable.

but we must make sure that we hold the right coins. We don't want to hold coin which doesn't have a bright future. A new altcoin is so scary to hold but it doesn't mean all new coins are scary, if you can find the good one, you are a lucky person because you find the hidden treasure.
We investors always do the best we can to carefully evaluate the coins we are holding that we believe its potential in the long run, however, we can still make mistakes as no matter how we try, we can't guarantee success, that's the reason it's also called a high risk kind of investment.
3388  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Multi bets vs single bets on: November 13, 2020, 01:14:00 PM
There is no science for purely luck based games, that's true, but sports betting isn't purely luck based.
Both true... I always believe that there's a way to be a successful sports bettor, but you can't be successful playing consistently on luck based games, unless you'll win millions and then you stop. End result, you are in profit.

Your research can significantly improve your chances of winning, although it can't, of course, guarantee a positive outcome. But then again, can science do that? I mean, not for betting, but for some major things like climate, health, space travelling? Not always, that's for sure.

That's what I always thought, it only does improve our chances of winning but we have to be realistic that it does not guarantee a win.
More information you know, the more it increase your chances as you can use that information to analyze which team will win in the game, but then, there are things that would happen that is unlikely to happen, so it's possibility to consider.
3389  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Multiplayer vs single player games on: November 13, 2020, 01:02:18 PM
i was really into sports betting which doesn't have any community chat box but whenever i play in casino site i really like to play with a community chat since i can manage to talk with other users which it lessen the tension of my game play and give me some break from betting.

Same here, and I would classify that as single player because it's just me betting on a team that I think would win, they will play, I will just analyze and put my bet. Maybe in poker you'll always go with multiplayer but I'm not really into it when risking a decent amount of money though.
3390  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Asking About Riobet Casino on: November 13, 2020, 12:25:22 PM
It was a previous casino to OP can I ask where did you manage to find the website? Have you already tested it out and managed to withdraw successfully? even though they are established few years back I'm still doubting if they could be trusted since we haven't know if they could be trusted.
As stated in the previous post, a deposit is needed in order to withdraw the reward, and therefore it's too risky to trust for a non popular site in the forum since you can't ask their support here if ever you will face some problem. Since OP was the one bringing the discussion here, let's wait for his experience.
3391  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: US Presidential Election 2020 and its impact on gambling on: November 13, 2020, 12:03:06 PM
You could also check out what Biden's plans are regarding the legalization of online gambling, as now in many places / states in the states it is illegal to gamble online anywhere. That would be something if Biden wants to change that and I wonder if he gets a lot of support or a lot of counterparts.

Legalizing gambling is not a hard decision to make, the word "legal" gives them the control of the casinos, so we will likely to see more of casinos to be legalized, however, what I want to see is how Biden would react on casinos adding bitcoin as their payment options and crypto casinos operating in his country, it would be big if Biden has positive reaction to that.

I don't think if Biden will be thinking about legalizing gambling or bring reforms to the gambling industry. This is not the preference for sure at the present moment. Forming a government and managing / taking over other administrative tasks are more important for the president of the USA, then to think about the gambling industry.

Gambling is not a highlight for a candidate to prioritize, but we will know more about that if Biden will officially be declared as a winner, right now, Trump are still in protest so even if we Biden is likely the winner, but we can't be too overconfident while waiting for the official announcement.

What are you speaking about? People need truth, people need democracy. That is why we are seeing so many protests this year. I believe that in the future, systems will collapse due to the fact that they are built on restrictions. People no longer need cells, which means they will try to escape from them. I believe cryptocurrency will play an important role in all this.
It's too early to tell, we are betting on cryptcurrencies future but the centralized system is still very powerful that they are in control of the regulation. Without a centralized system, I think there's going to be no law and order and world will be in chaos.

I was about to say that, hahaha... I'm also checking back my old coins now, who knows they would pump, and that trash can become a money for us. No deleting for me, I will let it rot in my wallet if it will not pump, but you know when we are in bull run, even shitcoins do pumped.  Grin

gambling is one of the funniest way for passing time. it's absolutely entertainment and not business (unless you are a poker pro player Cheesy )
Please consider sports betting as well, both games requires good technique to win and there's no house edge on it.

people that doesn't realize this difference are just playing in a nervous way, without enjoying the pleasure of a bets.
I am glad to see the result of the poll Smiley it means that vast majority of players have the same idea about gambling
Being nervous is normal when you are betting a decent amount and that would affect your finances when you lose, but if you still stay at the line of "bet what you can afford to lose", I guess you'll still be alright and that pain you will feel when you lose is just going to be a short lived one.

I would rather sell at this point, I have already learned my lesson in the last bull run when I hold a little longer and got amaze by how bitcoin was pumping. The movement of bitcoin now is bullish, but it will not be forever going into that direction so I think greediness here is the only hindrance why we can't sell easily.

Bitcoin is not a traditional investment, stock market is centralized while bitcoin is not, therefore they have their own market and there's no way the decentralized market will take over in the investment world, the centralized market which is back by the government will still remain as the most invested market due to its security and proper regulation.

We are just getting a small pie of investments but it's already a success for Bitcoin.

I certainly believe that Bitcoin will remain volatile, what we are seeing now which is a pump could soon result to some big massive dump.

Just passing by.

You have mentioned the minimum post required, not the maximum posts allowed. So what's up with that?

In most signature campaigns, only the minimum posts are mentioned and that's what you need to do in order to get paid, you can post as many as you want as long as you don't spam. I thought you have been participating in signature campaigns in the past, so you are pretty much aware how the system works.
3399  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING ]: Fury vs Wilder III in Las Vegas on 18th July 2020 !!! on: November 12, 2020, 07:24:25 AM
^^  I think with mediation though, it will be clear to both parties as what the contract really means. Both parties have their own interpretation of it, Bob Arum is a lawyer so he knows what's stipulated in the contract, but Finkel argument has some weight too as we have unseen circumstance in Covid-19.

So it's better that a third party mediator decide what is right and what is wrong. And then they can move on. Fury is looking for a scheduled fight against a relatively unknown, Kabayel, but Wilder is still hoping for that trilogy to happen.

If Wilder will bring this case to the court and he will win, he will be able to get money for the damages he would claim, but hopefully it will not anymore reach at that level, we want what's the best for both fighters especially for Wilder as his career is far from over.

One defeat against one of the best heavy weight boxer is painful, but it's not the end of the world so he can still recover, if he choose.

Enough for the war of words, they have to man up.

Russell Westbrook wants out of Houston

A good move for me by both parties. Westbrook likes to have a similar role that he holds for a long time in OKC.

But I don't know how it will be granted by the Rockets since "correct me if I'm wrong", Westbrook is under contract and will just have a player option in 2022.



What if Rockets would also want him out, if Rockets will keep Harden, it's not still wise to keep westbrook when they already witness how the two play together and it was not good, they can trade Westbrook with more role players, acquire a good big man as that is what they are lacking in the last playoffs.
