Honestly speaking, Rondo will not gonna receive much game time on Lakers tho.


Because he has a conflict of position with Lebron, when Lebron played with the Cavaliers in his last season, he was very effective as point guard and that's why he brought that style of play in this team now, maybe if he has a star player PG he might not take the position like the time when he was still playing with Kyrie Irving.
That's the adjustment Rondo needs to accept, If Lakers are aiming for this season's title for sure they will allow Lebron to take the lead. He's effective when he play in PG position, many game play can execute since he's capable to run. No problem with outside and inside offense plus a good defensive
stop when it's needed. The line up is very competitive not just a hype but really have a balance squad.

If Davis will be effective, Lebron will likely to have a good stats this season, a double double is likely while a triple double is still possible since he is good in hist assist and rebounding.

It's gonna be points-rebounds-assist, he will dominate in that category for sure.

because gambling industry don't just run in players/bettors there are many areas when you can earn in gambling without risking your money.you can lend inside casino for those who's put of cash with collateral and interest

That's only possible in physical casino but not in online, of course you can do that with a big capital and you have to charge the gambler with a big interest, you are always in the safe side since you have the collateral which is surely way higher than the amount you lent, I think usually who capitalize in this kind of deal are the casino owners as they have the capacity to lend big money.
4703  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: October 07, 2019, 10:09:47 AM
Lebron may not be PG though, he played point forward once again but they had Rondo so Rondo will probably play make more than Lebron.

If Lebon will act as a PG, Rondo will be playing as the 2nd round unit of the Lakers, which makes them a dangerous team.
We know Lebron can fill any position he wants but based on my observation, he is also effective as a point guard since he can drive the ball and just pass either to davis or from its outside shooters.

That's right, LeBron at point guard position was the most effective for him since he has a great court vision and a high basketball IQ. Considering the Lakers has tall players at thir disposal, it is only right to have a bigman running the play which only LeBron can do.

If I still remember correctly, during the first season of Lebron with the Lakers, he didn't act as  PG and they gave that position to the real PG which is Rondo, but Lebron's effectiveness has decrease so in the middle of the season I guess, he manage the PG so their ranking remains in the top 8 and it was just the injury was their major problem that's why their ranking slide down.

So, I think they will make Lebron as PG for this whole season and as long as he is healthy, he will be able to carry this team to not just in playoffs but in the Finals.

You have to be transparent to the bank if you don't want to get investigated.
I think it really depends on the amount, we might say it huge but they have a amount ceiling per their rules.
Before you can open a bank account, you will have to follow the kYC procedure, fill up the form with information required, like where you funds will be coming from, and how much in a monthly, or yearly you will deposit in your account, if you supply all the correct information, there's nothing to worry at all.

Binance has the best quality for 1000x potential growth coin because of its development activity we can possible  growth
Depends on what price we start, if we start on its ICO price, I think there's a chance that it will reach x1000 in the long run.
BNB's ICO price was 0.1 usd, so if we multiply to x1000, that's only 100 usd which is easy to achieve, maybe in less than a year from now it's possible.

However, if we based on the current price of $15, that would mean it will have to reach $15,000 in the long run, which I think it will not be easy though I believe its possible.

Well man, he suffered enough! Is he? He should be back now. The suspension is enormous for me.

We just miss him that's why we say that, the PBA organization has a rules to follow and its now defends on the commissioner if he will grant the request of the fans to allow him to play again. Actually he is really needed to win the Phoenix, I mean to have more wins, they need a closer like him who brings energy to the floor, if we witnessed how the Phoenix played in their games with Calvin, they struggle a lot especially in the half or in the winning moment.

I am very confident he will be granted pardon of his mistake and we shall see him soon.
What he really did is very shameful not only to his team but to the association too. Yes he is a very big asset to the Phoenix but if he continues to play how he is playing then he will receive multiple suspension from the commissioner. What he did is what he deserves. A clothesline to an import?? It is an unprofessional move coming from him.

The commissioner gave him permission already to attend the practice with his team but to play this season? I don't think so. More probably in the next season which is the All Filipino cup.

Again it's revealed how weak the team without him, they got dominated by the bolts in a score of 111 - 94 and when he was playing, we can barely see this kind of big margin in the game. I also think that the Phoenix management are helping him now to approach whoever committee they will have to in order for him to play the soonest.
4707  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin price recovery on: October 04, 2019, 10:27:00 PM
What are your thoughts and expectations?

will the price recover? yes
When's that gonna happen? Nobody knows.
will it affect all projects? no

you can't say much more at the moment. sorry. Cheesy

At this point of time, we can only think of the good possibilities in the future, we have to stay optimistic that things will change for the better.
I always have that kind of thinking even in the past, that's why I survive until now holding my coins and maybe its one of the reason why i failed to sell at the right time because I always HODL, but lesson learned, I'll probably gonna make a good decision by the time altcoins rally will come.
4708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Overall winning - Dice on: October 04, 2019, 09:35:03 PM
Have anyone profited out of dice in the short or long term. I have been trying the best and lost all, I can't leave it. Once after I loss I have gone beyond my ability. Finally as the wallet got emptied, I bought bitcoin particularly for betting and lost even the amount earned from my day job. I used to experience win, but at the end it is a loss. I miss the right time to stop and leave. Cry Cry Cry

At least now you know that the dice is might not be the best game for you. You could try other games like poker and other card games. But if you prefer dice games more, you should reevaluate your chances on winning on that. In card games, you can train and have strategies that can minimize your loses. But in dice, nothing will stop you unless you'd emptied your capital.
He doesn't need to leave the game that he loves to play, he just have to learn which game he will have to focus and which games will be played like doing it for purely entertainment only. To make it short and easy for him, games that are luck based like dice should only be played for fun, meaning, you don't expect consistency here as there is no working strategy that will beat the house edge.

now, if he is really interested in pursuing his journey in gambling, skilled based type of games should be focus, I agree with poker and will add sports gambling as well.
4709  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: October 04, 2019, 09:19:24 PM
I don't agree that Kawhi doesn't bring too much hype. Just after the finals, everyone turned in for Raptors but after knowing that he's going to leave the team.
They hype was only after they won the NBA finals but when he first joined the Raptors there was no hype as he was coming from injury that time.
And if you noticed, he start with limited minutes only and he does not usually go with games outside Toronto, and its a wise decision since the Raptors does not struggle to be in the top 8 and in fact they also win a lot of games even without Leonard.

There is no need to invent anything if you are not a trader.
I think this is wrong, though bitcoin is the most stable in the market but we've seen how altcoins can bring money.
If your judgement is only based in the last two years, then I would say you are right, but if you go down further and make it five years, you will see that the most profitable coins to invest is from altcoins if you just sell it during the last bull run in 2017.
4711  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin volatility here to stay? on: October 04, 2019, 08:32:08 PM
Bitcoin volatility is part of the game so far because there is not so much volume even if we think it is, this is still baby volume compare to other currencies or companies and in time the volatility will slowly decrease.

I know you don't like, I didin't like it either when I first joined Bitcoin in 2013 but without volatility do you think we would have had so many investors ? I think not because this creates a lot of new opportunities for everyone, anytime they join.

Maybe in 10 years at least we will see another type of volatility for bitcoin but you're looking for stable coins maybe wait for Libra ?

Bitcoin, Ethereum and other top coins have every chance of achieving a capitalization of a trillion dollars, which will allow them to remain relatively stable and slightly reduce volatility. 5 years is the time during which cryptocurrencies can win at least a minimum of trust from people. Therefore, most likely, in the next few years, it is not worth counting on a decrease in cryptocurrency volatility.

If it can attract institutional money, then I would think that it would help this market to gain some stability because it will lessen the manipulation as they will hold for long term because they believe on the system. The problem that I'm seeing now is that we have a lot of small time investors that composes the market and every time there's a hype or a FUD, this market will easily move significantly in just a few hours, that is a sign that we don't have a stable market, so we need more that does not panic and will not buy the hype or FUD.

What do we think about this rumor?

NBA Rumors: Lakers Could Bring Back Jordan Clarkson Via Midseason Trade, ‘L.A. Sports Hub’ Suggests

I think he will be able to help the Lakers if the management will be able to get him back.
He is a good scorer and they can put Clarkson in the 2nd unit, this team will surely improve more.
4713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 Governor's Cup betting and discussion on: October 04, 2019, 01:48:00 PM
I immediately didn't watch this league dince the absence of my favorite player, Calvin Abueva. Is he playing again now in the league?
Not yet, he is still under indefinite suspension but he is already practicing with his team now although he can't play yet but this is a good move as the team is very positive the suspension will end up soon, if that will happen, we can have a ready Abueva to bring more energy in the floor.
4714  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Btc price is allready too high on: October 04, 2019, 11:29:07 AM
now is the right time to buy before prices go back up. all believe this is only temporary and there will be time to be happy to see BTC penetrating 12k dollars even more than that
There is a prediction that the price o BTC may increase morethan 12k$ with this month ,but i will not believe with that prediction unless i see. For me this prediction only creating another hype for crypto investors. Btc price may increae its value but no one knows when it will happen.
LOL, that's why its called prediction because its a guess, and we when we are investing or trading, we are playing a big guessing game here.
If you don't believe, you should have a valid basis and not that you only believe when you see it, if that's the case, you are not believing that this market has a potential.
4715  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: We are only rich on spreadsheets on: October 04, 2019, 11:10:17 AM
Joining bounties or investing in ICO’s is not a quick rich scheme, we can’t really expect more due to a negative market conditions. But holding it for longterm might have chance to recover and sell it for a good price but the price always depend on company’s performance.

You cannot be rich when you invest in ICO now, majority if not all of them are scams, and those who raise a good amount might still struggle to have a good price when listed in exchange. This happens because people have learn, they have matured and the competition is getting tighter at the same time also.
4716  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Harmony. +800% after IEO on: October 04, 2019, 11:00:52 AM
I see IEO binance is always successful, ..

Sure about that? you can look at the list here https://coincodex.com/ieo-list/binance/, and tell me again if they are all successful.
You say always... okay then let me check which IEO coins are not successful as to date.

I find https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/fetch/ (look at the graph), and this one https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/elrond/.
Seems like that two's chart does not look successful.
4717  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Alts you won't invest in on: October 03, 2019, 11:45:40 PM
Big markecap altcoins are somewhat called good altcoins, but still that depends on how every will see a certain coin.
If we are talking about altcoins that won't or avoid to invest, I think there's thousands of then, or maybe 10 thousands or more.
The fact that majority of the altcoins are scams, I believe 90% of the altcoins are not worth to invest in.
4718  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: No good projects from a long time on: October 03, 2019, 11:14:32 PM
If you waste time researching further there are still good projects with their own advantages, it's just that you have not found it for sure, in 2019 this is not a bad project but with falling prices for bitcoin and altcoin some projects are delayed because they do not reach the target, I am sure in the future there are still many projects that can promise as the price of BTC rises again
Now is the right time to look for good projects that are undervalued because there's always a bullish market where altcoins will rise and we can expect that if you choose the right coin to invest now, you will be able to see it rise and take profit during the altcoins bullish market.

Judging the market now is wrong because even ETH is down with a significant loses from its previous high and we know ETH is a good project.
4719  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin and casinos on: October 03, 2019, 11:00:09 PM
It's happening and I think this will be the future of casino same with bitcoin as the future of currency.
We know, as the adoption increases this crypto gambling industry will grow and that means it will also attract big investors to put their business here.

Who wouldn't want an instant deposit and withdrawal that you just have to pay for a small transaction fee.
In fiat gambling sites, you cannot do that as the minimum to gamble is high, same with the fee.
4720  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many times have you gone against majority on: October 03, 2019, 10:45:12 PM
I can't remember if how many times I bet against the majority. But I remember year 2017 I always betting in the high return team even if the winning rate is too low. Who knows what will happen in that game. And the feeling you won after betting in underdog team is fantastic.
Sometimes a certain team is overvalued so the winning rate is overvalued as well.
I am also a fan of that strategy, less time to analyze the game, you just put your bet based on your instinct and if that wins, you will get a better return.
Most of the teams are bet in sports are those teams that could give at least x3 of your bet and per experience, its way profitable than betting in lower odds if you are not just betting on it blindly.
