I thought that there is a trade already involving James Harden.

Someone that I talk last night says that he is going to the Bucks in exchange of Holiday. But so far I can't find any news of it so maybe he is just playing with me. Nevertheless I'm going to see him tomorrow so I'm going to tell him that it's not true, Lol.

In any case though, do you guys think that it's a good trade for the Bucks to let go of Jrue to get Harden?

I am hearing that the only team he is actually interested in going to is the Clippers. I don't know if this news is 100% true. I think it can be a good trade for the Bucks to get Harden. Of course, they will let go of Jrue if they do that. But I still think that it might be a good idea. But there are a lot of news going around about Harden. I am just not sure about which news to trust to be honest.

Teams outside of the LA Clippers are reportedly not engaged with the Philadelphia 76ers

Holiday for Harden, that's a bad idea because Holiday plays at both ends of the floor, unlike Harden, who does not play good defense. When the Bucks won a championship, I believe Holiday was one of the big reasons why it happened. So, I don't think it's necessary to break up their lineup just because they had an early exit last playoffs. I believe it's part of the game, and they just have to continue developing their chemistry as they are still considered a championship team.

You probably know that almost all new meme projects are coming out now. Do you think it is really risky? what effect do you think this could have for the bull market!
Risky - that was absolutely right.
In fact, ever since we know that investing in meme coins is not a good idea. However, we can't change the fact as well that they are greatly profitable during its hype and so people got crazy participating it now. Yeah, I could say that 2023 is for meme coins, it gains more attention after the PEPE coin got shone up. Nevertheless, we couldn't say that this will last longer until the bull season comes because if that is so, then the impact is huge and it also drags other meme coins to pumps as well.

I Think it will be better for those who don't have enough income to enter into dual jobs at a same time so if one salary is not enough then other salary will easily manage one's needs. Getting job is also not easy so try to settle some business in such area where there will not such business present before so it will gives greater profit.
Perhaps, it was the time that we need to look for something that we can earn money in a legal way.  Our expenses are growing and it was hard if our income is still the same. We need to be smart now and work hard or else, we might fall into huge debt. We can do a side hustle to maximize our time and skills, there are a lot of opportunities around us and they are waiting for us. It is just a need for us to push ourselves, we can't be lazy this time as the situation is getting harder and harder.

DEMO account - is good for beginners and I encourage newbies to do this and acquire ideas, knowledge, and skills that we can apply in actual trade, However, we can't expect that it gonna be the same experience in doing actual trade because this will include mix emotions that certainly affect our decision making in when to buy and when to sell. Therefore, if we are already good at using a demo account, we can't say that we are also good in the actual trading scenario as everything will change, yet we can still apply the learnings we have.

Free agent center Omer Yurtseven has signed a $5.4 million contract with the Utah Jazz.
Omer Yurtseven previously played for the Miami Heat. He didn't get many chances to play for the Miami Heat. I hope he plays more for the Utah Jazz and proves himself.

These centers nowadays are having a hard time showcasing their skills due to some limited minutes to play and when they are not effective enough on the court, they will gonna be sitting on the bench for the rest of the games, and in the end, their stats will not improve and will end up getting their rank to decrease as well because there are no more numbers to add. He needs to go to the team that doesn't have enough Center or they will just be lucky when the star center of that team gets injured and that's when they have the chance to change the people's view on them.

Or maybe he doesn't fit with the Heat because they play small ball, and slower players are not given many minutes within their system. The Jazz might have recognized some good value in this player, as they are looking to add size to their team. Additionally, the contract isn't too large, so there should be enough room under the salary cap to acquire more skilled players in various positions.
726  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Alejandro Santiago for WBC bantamweight (july15,2023 on: July 18, 2023, 12:47:03 PM

Giving those live viewers a reason to watch them and have a closer look at the way they've fought. It's an opportunity for both Santiago
and Donaire to hype up their names, more chance to earn money if they earn the attention of more crowd/viewers.

No doubt, Donaire and Santiago would earn a larger sum of money by being the undercard fight for Spence vs Crawford. In terms of hype, Donaire is already well-known, so he only needs a bit more exposure. It's actually Santiago who will be presented with a great opportunity because if he wins this fight, promoting his next fight would not be difficult.

The changes made to the fight should be appreciated as the promoters simply aim to make it a more successful event.
727  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Zhang Vs Joyce II WBO Interim World Heavyweight Championship on: July 18, 2023, 08:22:25 AM

He won't be an underdog because he won in their first fight. Although we may say that it's an upset win, the bookies had already adjusted for it since people already believe that Zhang is the real deal. Zhang is not fighting a fighter who has won a championship before, so that further solidifies why he is the favorite now.

And Zhang won it convincingly I used to believe that Joyce is ready to be a champion until he fought Zhang, Joyce is so good with his jabs when he fought Dubois but its nowhere to be seen when he fought Zhang he is intimidated by Zhang's punches.

If Zhang wins again he will become a serious threat to both Usyk and Fury but if Joyce wins I expect a third match to even the score unless Joyce wins by a knockout or stoppage if it's a decision the fans and Zhang will demand a third fight.

We are going to find out after this fight. Zhang's name has emerged seemingly out of nowhere because he wasn't as popular as Fury and Wilder. Now, he is already a champion and will attempt to prove that his first win was not merely due to luck. If he wins by knockout once again, I'm certain his name will generate a buzz in the heavyweight division, opening up significant opportunities for him in another championship fight.

Perhaps Zhang vs Usyk next, which would be enjoyable.

BTC is not meant to be hold in wallets like gold. It is basically a currency and should be used for transactions and trades.
However increasing demand with limited supply has made it's price soar to sky and many people fear that they might not be able to lay their hand again on BTC if they spend it now.

Once all BTC are mined and all of them reached to bitcoin holders wallet, people will eventually start spending them directly instead of first converting them to fiat.
Because what is in our mind that stops us from using it is we are focused on movable values which is an opportunity for us to earn. And another reason is that people are not preferred using this as a currency because it was not accepted yet in their local area. So instead of considering is as a currency, they'd rather consider this as an investment. They buy and hold, and later on, when the bull season comes they sell them. They'll see that it was an investment opportunity in general, not as a currency like fiat money that we use every day.
729  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can gambling and crypto trading be considered as skills with $10k gain a month? on: July 17, 2023, 07:17:08 PM
This is absolutely possible to achieve. In fact there are influencers and other categories in which people are earning more than 10k per month after they reach specific target audience. Some of the popular blogs even earn hundreds of thousand dollars with write up alone.

We are not talking about salaries but we are talking about gambling and trading which we don't need to gain more audience here but what we need is capital, knowledge, and skills.
While aiming to earn $10k monthly in this field is really uncertain and that is because we are can't guarantee that we always make good decisions and too lucky. But this is not actually why people got into trading or gambling, what is important for them is to earn a profit and it doesn't matter if they could get reach their target or not.
730  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 14, 2023, 03:01:46 PM
Reports are coming out stating that James Harden is done in a Sixers uniform. Apparently he has had some disagreements with the GM of the Sixers and doesn’t want to play in Philly anymore. Shocker, Harden and Kyrie Irving can’t find places to be happy… People close to Harden are saying he has his heart set on playing for the Clippers this season.

This guy is just ridiculous.

He chose his player option to basically stay in Philly but now he hates it AGAIN and wants to go. He had the choice to become a free agent. These clowns are having contracts they signed. How dare them requested trade after trade. There should be a rule that teams may terminate contracts if players do that.

Players expect to get paid, so the team can expect performance and not some diva behaviour.  3 trade requests in 3 years, when will teams finally wake up and give him a minimum contract, he is not worth the trouble in my eyes.

Yes its the way their are, not matter what they claim their are, they dont have any modesty. They are 100% Ego, and they want like a crybaby all in the way they want, and if this its not happening they start to make this things.

Really sad to see so good players wasted for this behavior.

I guess that will happen once you are already seeing the horizon in the midst of the sundown of your career and yet, you still don't have any chip on your shoulder, so now, you will be moving as fast as possible because you just cannot feel that you can have what you want in your present team. But the thing is, not everyone is destined to be a champion even if you were once a monster in your younger years.

And that is what happening right now to James Harden, he just wanted Philly not because he see his chance to win the championship but because he just wanted a way out from the Nets, and now, he wanted to be in the right team that can provide him what he wanted. But I doubt that will happen though, he is becoming a liability instead of an asset.
731  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 14, 2023, 02:20:57 PM
Of course, we may expect obstinate attitudes from English supporters, who are vehemently opposed to their players transferring to the Saudi team. It is obvious that Saudi Arabia is utilizing their resources to attract players here, not because these players want to participate, but because they are enticed by the huge payments on provide, which they are unwilling to turn down. Saudi Arabian league is growing more popular in the football world, and everything is moving at a breakneck pace. A lot has been accomplished by these clubs in a short period of time.

LOL.. can't do much if the European clubs and their supporters are feeling bitter. In the recent past there were several instances of the clubs deliberately insulting and intimidating some of the players. One example is the suspension handed down to Messi by Paris Saint-Germain after he visited Saudi Arabia. UEFA clubs want the players to dance as per the whims and fancies of the management. And that too after offering peanuts. The entry of Saudi money has changed the picture upside down and has offered more options to the players to chose from.

They just cannot deny the fact that the Saudi League is slowly taking their crown and tempting some good players to come to them as they can offer a much better paycheck compared to the European clubs that has been the choice for many players are they were the ones who can give a much competitive paycheck back at the day, but now, the situation is already different and I will not be surprised if Saudi League will boom up because of it. Money will always attract players and that is the reality that they cannot deny.
732  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will you sell Shib now? Am holding on: July 14, 2023, 09:24:45 AM
I'm not sure if you still have Shiba Inu coins in your hands as we'd never hear any updates but whether you still have them, I suggest not to hold them long-term if you want to earn a profit from crypto. Because as I observed, those projects that have been hyped before have drastically moved down and never risen again. And this is going to happen with Shiba Inu because they are just passing by. Projects that don't have a working product and huge community will never survive the competition.
733  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Multiple timeframes is another means of getting better market clarity on: July 13, 2023, 01:44:57 PM
As for the timeframes, I mostly stick to 3 timeframes 1D, 1H and 15m which are ideal for me right now.
I must say that this is a very good combination. If one would want to use very large time frames like 1Y, 1M and even 1W, there are other sets of timeframes that work best with them, and the same thing goes for the combining in which the highest timeframe is 1D like yours.

In 3 combinations, I love settings like (1Y, 1M and 1W), (1W, 1D and 4H) and (1D, 1H and 15m) which is yours.

Did you just say 1Y. That must be really huge. I have never went past 1M which I rarely read.
For me it has mostly been 1W for the highest time frame and it gives me enough data to analyze the trend.
What do you generally read when you are looking at 1M and 1Y ?
I've preferred to use a short time frame 1H, 1D, 1 week. Because in trading, we often take advantage of every up and down which only takes just a few minutes but of course, we also have to look at what happened a month before just to know that we are not buying at the inclining trend. Perhaps we can use them all if we have enough time to spend in the market and it was encouraging but yes, it will depend on where you think you are confident. And I would say that it was best to focus on the time frame that you usually used and if it was effective.
734  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: is it Advisable joining Bitcoin signal group? on: July 13, 2023, 01:09:24 PM

I could remember a Bitcoin signal group I joined, as someone that has less knowledge about trading and how sure the group signal works, so I decided to seat back and watch how the trade will work, on the contrary it moves opposite direction and that was not the first time, what they normally do was to get some screenshots from other successful traders and posted on there telegram group to draw more attention so people could pay before joining. Though from my findings from othe traders I was able to deduce that not all group signals are false that most times it works exactly the way they predicted and most time reversal.

So what do you guys think, let's share knowledge.
What do you think is right - they can't be trusted. And base on what you observed, they are useless groups and just taking advantage of newbies for their innocence. There is no reason why we have to keep them and follow their fake signals, perhaps, they are fooling us for their greediness and scammy activities. That is why I'd never encourage anyone to join them even if they are free because honestly, it was not totally free, and later on, they will ask you for some money. It was a trick and we don't let this kind of activities to continue.

I guess he was really given the green signal to shoot that time. But with Dallas, they want a true center which Wood didn't provide and that's why he was released and teams are not keen on his talents anymore, I reckon.


He isn't a real threat as a center despite his size, which can be seen as a liability. However, he can contribute significantly in terms of scoring. Looking at his stats from last season, he averaged 16.6 points per game (PPG), which is already a good contribution. Therefore, I believe he would fit well with a team that prioritizes offense over defense and values ball movement.

https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/w/woodch01.html

But if Lakers or the Warriors are the team that are looking for a good center, then they are loaded with scorers already, which make Christian Wood a liability to them. And again, he is a good scoring threat, but it seems they are looking for a center that is in the mold of let's say Ayton or even Joel Embiid.

So as much as his stats is that good, he might not be a perfect fit for a offensive team, in my opinion.

You know, the Warriors are indeed a strong team, and they have a good track record of developing players. In contrast, the Lakers already have Anthony Davis and they don't prioritize ball movement as much as the Warriors do. Personally, I believe the Warriors would be more likely to sign Wood. However, I could be mistaken, so if the Lakers were to pursue him, it could be a good move for them, providing a solid backup for Davis as the latter is an injury prone big already.

Based on my experience, the things that influence me in making my decision are my emotions and Technical knowledge. It is something to note that the more we become too emotional, the more we can't think the right thing and it leads to making wrong decisions. It is very common when we are newbies but as we gain experience, it gradually changes and now we are focused on following the trend, doing TA, and improving our skills and strategies. Because when we are a newbie, we feel worried that is why we become too emotional.

TNT +21.5 @1.85 vs ROS[/b]

I've decided to bet on the TNT because of that wide spread, that is too much that i think they can cover that one easily.
I see that TNT has a bigger chance of winning and under Jojo Lastimosa NTN is developing quite well.
Justin Chua and Carl Bryan Cruz will be my favorites to make TNT win over ROS.
Hopefully what is expected can actually be achieved with TNT's victory they can continue into the next series.

There's no doubt that TNT is considered a good team. However, let's take a look at the current situation. We are in the PBA on tour where games may not hold as much importance as in the regular season. So far, this supposed good team is still winless, indicating that they have been struggling significantly.

You can confirm this by checking the standings at https://pba.ph/standings, where they currently hold a record of 0-6.

Yes, Nonito is more technical than Pacquaio and probably the reason why he is can fight up to this point. Not that badly damage as compare to Manny wherein he has go to a lot of wars around 126-135 against some of the great boxers during that era. And then at 140-147, fighting bigger guys.

Not really that technical, though Donaire has also suffered devastating knockouts in his career. It's Pacquiao who is truly more technical in the ring. Although he may be perceived as a brawler, his exceptional ring IQ is highly evident in most of his fights, allowing him to dominate his opponents.

I'd see that many people are in regret not believing in Bitcoin before and thinking it was a scam. But now, they're into becoming huge crypto investors and fully adapted to it - see, many people had changed their mind and views when seeing other people shows significant changes after investing in Bitcoin. It is sad to say but this kind of approach really exists and is mostly embraced. That is why if we heard our friends encourage us not to invest in crypto, we just find it out these days that they are posting on social about their great achievements because of investing in Bitcoin.
