Djokovic already won but in 4 sets, the usually, he 'tend' to lost the first set and then comeback strong in the last 3.

Not so surprised, Stefanos Tsitsipas lost in the first round, we all know that he is more of a clay court specialist, same as Jannik Sinner, exiting early as well.

Lots of game are suspended, so we have to wait when its going to resume.

Loma totally outclassed Nakatani. Before that fight, I did not even know who Nakanati was, and it turned out he has 20-1 record. Where did he get all that 20 wins, if he was outclassed so much by Lomachenko?

Check out Nakatani vs Teofimo Lopez fight in youtube. Or Nakatani vs Felix Verdejo. You will see that Nakatani is a good fighter. He lost to Lopez by decision, but it was really close and we could say that Nakatani gave Lopez a hard fight. Event the father of Lopez admitted that after that fight. Loma was just above, talent wise and we did see it in this fight. A highly rank boxer, he just dismantled him, with his footwork speed and left hands.

P.S. I agree to what people say - it is early for a rematch against Lopez. And Lopez probably must fight agaist obligatory contender first.
Of course he needs to win against Kambosos first, and we don't see any upset happening. That's why people are calling for a Loma vs Lopez rematch already.

Wait, I thought Kawhi was out of the rest of the playoffs, I didn't know he could come back in a possible game 6 or 5, he just had a sprain, I don't think it's too bad.
If Leonard returns, the Clippers have a good chance of beating the Suns
That's what I thought but this is just rumor circulating around and it isn't yet official AFAIK. I'm certain the luck may have run out for Clippers with the 0-2 deficit series they got for 1st and 2nd round but also hoping they can win this thing, always hoping for their best.

He could play but not in game 5, so I would say the time is up and I think he just needs to rest after game 5 as the Suns will not allow the Clippers to come back and threaten them again. The Suns understand that if they will allow the Clippers to win, that would create a major problem for them as Leonard might be able to play, so it's now or never, Suns in 5.
Yeah,  Suns will have to defeat Clippers again to clinch the series, although Clippers is down, they are a good team, there as games that should go either, as @stadus have said, missed free throws by George, the "valley oop" to Ayton, and even the last game they are in the position to win. But it was just the breaks of the game. So expect the same intensity in tonight's game still 50/50.

What do you mean? They are obvious meme coins, just for pure pump and dump scheme, that's why it is losing because we are in a bearish trend. So no one is willing to put their money as the risk is too high. You will notice that during a bull run, there are a lot of meme coins that suddenly pumps up and then manipulators taking profits, easy peasy. But since we enter the bearish cycle, everyone is afraid, even those pumpers because they are not sure if they can gathered enough noobs to be their victims in those meme coins that they will create or existing already.

finally, the bucks realized that they have a huge advantage underneath the basket, Lopez is the game-changer in this game, smooth touch outside, if they play like this they won't be stopped by the hawks unless trae put big numbers every game, and the supporting class clicks it the different story, Giannis should really pound the rim no one can stop him.
The Bucks played the perfect game today, offense and defense wise, Giannis was unstoppable and then the support cast that you are saying provided the spark to massacre the Atlanta Hawks. It was game over in the 3rd quarter, as the second stringers are the one who finishes the game on both side. So it's time for the Hawks to make the adjustments, both are two highly skilled coach as well, so let's see who's going to crack.

RIP, although McAfee is misunderstood because of his bold claim, I will say that I agree with him the crypto will be our last hope for financial independence.

Actually it already happened since 2017, many people became rich because of their early investments on bitcoin. So that's right now, many are still hoping that bitcoin will reach 6 digits as he predicted. Just sad to hear that he ended his own life. Now its our time to turn our dreams just like what John McAfee said, financial independence and freedom from governments.
3667  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin volatility history 2012-2021 on: June 25, 2021, 02:05:30 PM
History repeat itself but it can be changed or bitcoin price not always matched with the prediction and bitcoin is also can change because of fundamentally not just analytic
But bitcoin's fundamentals is just going strong year-to-year, it's just the price is really volatile as there are a lot of players as it grow from 2012-2021. So the only constant is the technical analysis, people come and go in the market, but it's remain the same in my opinion. A lot of up and down in the last 10 years, we may call it cyclical specially that we have halvings every 4 years that really affected the price movement. Now, we have touch as high as $64k, just a question whether we hit the top already or not.

This is a ponzi scheme from the very beginning, so I don't know why investors still fall for this kind of trap. Although I must admit that people are greedy and this is the main reason that they don't think logically when making their investments.

So probably a exit scam, but for sure, if either one of the brothers makes a mistake, they can still be trace back and hopefully investors can get back their money and learn a very expensive lessons.

Not surprising indeed, but what surprises me is that the scammers took some time before using MicroStrategy as the face of the new fake giveaways. Obviously, as Michael Saylor is now the new personality of being a bitcoin bulls so scammers have to take advantage of it.

Good catch by the OP, we might as well see this in the next couple of weeks. So we are all been warned.
3670  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Tank Davis vs Barrios - June 26 on: June 25, 2021, 10:32:00 AM
Tank Davis is so good that nobody voted here for Barrios, even though Barrios also had a good record with a good knock out percentage, but we know Tank's power he can end a fight with one punch, it's good that he move up, there's lack on competition on his division because some of the fights that he wants are not pushing through, I expect Davis to win here in a very sensational way because Barrios is a fighter who is not hesitant to engage.
Yeah, and since is a step up for Tank Davis, I also expect him to win by another perfect left hook on Barrios, just like what he did on the Leo Sta Cruz fight. Not much of a trash talk between the two though, but we all know that Tank doesn't back down on any one, including when Ryan Garcia was going to the public and calling him names etc. So Davis by a sensational knock out.

In Bangladesh, still media spread wrong info on cryptocurrency. It’s still illegal here. As a member of the forum, I feel the necessity of doing something by any means to be honest.
So, I was planning of creating a petition on change.org including all the right info and share this among everyone. Would it really make any difference? Will it be able to get the attention of the government? What do you think?
Why not go for it mate? you won't lose any, and on the contrary it might attract the attention not only of local Bangladesh, but many bitcoin enthusiast around the world. I know that it's tough that the government is having a anti-bitcoin sentiments, but who knows, maybe they will take a second look and change their tune in the next coming years. At least you are in the forefront and make a big difference on how they look at bitcoin. Several governments in Central America or even neighboring countries in Asia are pro-bitcoin.
3672  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 25, 2021, 08:36:57 AM
Winning streak is over for the Suns, the Clippers started hot in the second half and Booker and Chris Paul has a horrendous shooting night. Pat Beverly and Reggie Jackson hitting big baskets for the Clippers. While PG13 is very consistent and just redeem himself with a big win in game 3.
Yes, somehow, that streak should be over last game, if not for Paul George missing those crucial free throws and the Ayton alley-opp.  I guess it took for Paul to be back in Suns and Booker having a bad shooting night for the Clippers to win.

I like how they play defense on Booker here, and I'm sure he is affected by his nose injury still. Even though he doesn't want to admit it.
He is very tough defender, quick hands and has a good basketball IQ, you might find his defense dirty, but it's very effective as Booker is really frustrated in this game.
3673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lomachenko vs Nakatani June 26 on: June 24, 2021, 09:59:08 PM
^ The schedule of their fight was almost there, it should be on tomorrow right? on Saturday night.
In my mind, Loma has a great advantage here and will win the fight against Nakatani because as per see, Loma had a very optimistic mindset as he’s eager to strengthen his boxing career so it means he is a very aggressive fighter right now. Though the result of the fight is unpredictable I had a strong feeling that this Nakatani can't win the counterpunch of Loma. We are probably very excited and eagerly not to wait for this fight.
It think is Saturday evening US time. Yes, as per betting odds, Loma is the favorite, but he doesn't have the advantage on height and reach. Nevertheless, being a technical fighter, he can negate that by doing a lot of movements.

And as I have observed, even though Nakatani is tall, he doesn't used it that much, he prefer to go inside so I don't think it's much of a advantage in this fight. As Loma can fight inside too, and then go outside, look for the right angles.
3674  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Breaking : Donaire Versus Casimero on: June 24, 2021, 01:25:41 PM
At 32 years old Casimero does not have the most impressive career compared to a hall of famer like Donaire. This will be his opportunity to live up to his own hype. He's been very vocal about wanting to fight Inoue and now is his opportunity to earn that fight. The height and experience advantage of Donaire will be difficult to overcome. I haven't seen odds yet but I assume most people will bet on Donaire.

Most probably, that would be the case, Donaire will be the favorite to win this fight as he is more popular than Casimero and with his recent win against Oubaali, his stocks went a little notch north.

Personally, i'm for Casimero's side here because if he wins against Donaire then Inoue would be having a hard time against him while if it's against Donaire, he would have an easier fight because he has now the experience of how the latter fight and would adjust where necessary to win convincingly.

If you look at the social media, there's a spat going on between Quadro Alas and the Filipino Flash that could fuel to this fight and somehow sell to those who are following them.
The social media spat is one sided though, it all came from Casimero, he says that:

1. When he was still a budding boxer, he approach Donaire and speaks in native Filipino, and Donaire said he can't understand what John Riel is saying. He just wanted to get a picture with Nonito

2. When Donaire started to loss fights, he saw him in the Philippines and hear him speaks Filipino.

3. Casimero at one time was being trained by Nonito Sr, so obviously the father tell Nonito if he can spar with John Riel, but Nonito Jr decline.
3675  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you worry about not being able to convert BTC to fiat in future on: June 24, 2021, 11:13:57 AM
With banks in some countries blocking transactions from known exchanges is there a worry that one day it will become impractical to turn the BTC into fiat? Either just very hard to do, maybe street-corner-deals or at risk of getting your bank accounts frozen?
Do people think about this and have plans to work around these kinds of banking barriers? Or are there ways around it already but I'm not aware?
If will only be impractical if banks around the world will not accept btc in the future. But I highly doubt that this will be the case in the next 5 years. Bitcoin is coming off age, and we have seen countries adopting and welcoming it.

I got lucky though that we have a local exchange that convert our btc->local fiat. And even allow us to pay for our monthly dues like electricity, water, internet and phone bills.
3676  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 24, 2021, 10:10:12 AM
Quite unexpected victory of the Atlanta Hawks which won by three points. Honestly, after the exhausting past games I'd not have expected all these points but the game was really spectacular and until the last basket you could not tell who would win.
It'll be a great challenge between the Bucks and the Hawks that will compete again on Saturday.

Trae Young is underrated, it's the battle of the Bucks vs Trae Young, this young man is playing with so much confidence and he is unstoppable. Bucks might have a problem figuring out how to minimize his production because if they will double him, that will open a spot for Trae's teammates which are good 3 point shooters.

He also has this ability to stop at a dime and then hit a 3. And then dribble penetrate, hesitate and then throw a lob pass to Capela or Collins who is a good finisher. So it's a different set of defense that they should used against Trae. Of course, there is no stopping a scorer, but at least limit his production so that the Bucks has a chance to win. No longer underrated with this performance, legitimate star at 22 years old.
3677  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: June 24, 2021, 09:37:49 AM
^^ Thanks for the tips, I was just looking at the odds before the game, and thinking the over will be a good bet here. Over 222.5 is currently at @1.91 so that's a juicy odd already, so I'm going to go with the same bet as yours.

Although without Kawhi, it seems that Clippers have settled down with Paul George as the leading and then Reggie Jackson as the second option now. I think the key for them to win and stop that winning streak of the Suns is how to stop Devin Booker who is tearing them with his mid jump shot and assists.

Unfortunately, it's under 222.5 guys, first quarter was bad for both teams and it dictate the tempo of the score, maybe defense is really there is game 2 that's why they shot poorly, including Devin Booker.

What do you think of the game 1 between Bucks and the Hawks?

Bucks open up as -7.5? Is this a trap or the Bucks can cover it?

I guess we got the answers today, I wouldn't say it's a trap, but it surely can't be covered, they lead by 7 going into the last couple of minutes, but it quickly evaporated as they don't know how to protect that lead.

PG13 looking at Trae Young icing those 2 free throws, hahaha. Good win for those who bet on the underdog. I don't know why Khris Middleton is given the play to take the 3. He has been shooting poorly in this game, It should be Jrue Holiday for me.
3678  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: June 23, 2021, 11:23:33 AM
I agree that when making an analysis, the age of Manny Pacquiao should not be taken as one of the disadvantages. Can apply to other veteran boxers but not for Pacquiao.
We did not see Manny Pacquiao fight for the past two years and he is not getting younger and these delay is due to the pandemic and not because he was injured or retired but the problem is that with age your reflexes goes down and that is a fact. We can very well understand this once the fight starts and in the first three rounds we will know whether we are seeing the old Manny Pacquiao.
Well, it seems you are underestimated Manny Pacquiao here --so you mean that Manny Pacquiao will perhaps lack practice these days because of the pandemic? You are wrong because he has a hard practice and I don't think at his age won't able to win the fight. Pacman is a very aggressive and very wise fighter, he is also a very clever fighter that when he knows that his opponent becomes weak, at that time he will give a nice fighter with a fast punch like what happened to Cotto. We are almost there, let us see who will this fight.
Actually we have seen Manny's speed deteriorate in years, but not to the point that he can be out gun by his opponent. So still, Manny has some decent speed as compare to the rest of the 147 lbs. But during his prime, we all know that he can throw 5 or 6 punch combinations, it's so fast the the opponent didn't know where it's coming from. But today, he uses more of his experience, angles, foot works and then his speed. That's why he was able to beat young guys like Thurman and Broner.
3679  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price movement for June & July 2021 on: June 23, 2021, 10:43:56 AM
My prediction you can buy Btc back next year, I'm sure Btc will be under $ 30,000, or even touch $ 20,000. Btc's 4-year cycle is almost at the end of the year, and starts the correction again the following years.
Yeah, What is your reason for you to be so sure? Specify it with some valuable examples. Or your leverage will win, have fun with it. I think we will surpass China's slaughterhouse and the merits of bitcoin will be great. We will end Q2 with $45k - what I predict. Short-selling corporations will suffer the consequences.

On the contrary, I don't think that there are short selling corporations, they are slowly buying at every deep and continue to accumulate. As to who are selling, I speculate that the weak hands, or those who bought at top and thinking that its better to go out right now.

Of course we still have a great months ahead, Sept-Dec, there will be a possibility that a big movement is coming and will push the price to a new all time highs.
