The bucks don't know what hit them, three points are coming from everywhere when the bucks are closing in, paul make points and plays for the team, what a game by the suns, the bucks offense are good but the suns are flawless, they step on the gas when the bucks are making a rally, and doing it beautifully with nice plays, booker also played well tonight and supporting cast of the suns, no way that bucks can overcome that offense.

Elon just tweeted so some people like what others said just taking advantage since Elon is so popular with crypto developers are creating coins and putting hype on it, by saying Elon tweeted this, and the people fall for it, Elon has nothing to do with pump, he just say what he likes, because remember Elon is not connected with those sprouting new coins in the market, so to avoid losing tons of money make research and don't just look on person tweet.

I guess that will be the case unless there's someone who might be willing to a salary decrease which is too rare scenario. That's why I do love this guy Chris Paul (though I'm not a fan) because instead of forming a superteam again he chose this time to lead younger players and he now got a chance to got a ring.

agree, it is hard to expect that someone will be willing to decrease salary to join a superteam, there are chances with every team, and Paul case proves that
on the other side, if one agree to decreased salary, it indirectly proves that he is worst than others in the team, reduces minutes in the game, and all other things that are directly related with status in the team, and ring is a good motive, but it is never certain that one will get ring in the end


I think we've seen some stars before that allow to decrease their salary just to accommodate a star player to get a championship. Some players especially if they have made multi-millions in years of playing but still not won an NBA champion would be okay with reducing their salary just to acquire a star player to form a super team, it's a case to case basis actually as every player has their own intention, in CP3's case, he doesn't need to.

Quote
Suns are going to get the title this season Smiley

Let's see that, they have a very high chance of winning this NBA Finals.
Most of the players today are chasing a ring before they retire maybe its because they want to show it to their son and grandson, unlike before, but it's their decision we can't do anything about it, in the past few years there are lots of players who made a decision to cut their salary to join a super team some succeed some fail.

I myself have underestimated them at the start of the post season. I though they were just lucky they get passed the Lakers in the first round because Davis struggle to play throughout that series. But they proved me wrong. Ayton, Booker, CP3, and the rest of the Suns seems like in a perfect sync this post season.
Even If they can't win the Finals this year, I believe they'll still be intact next season as they are a power house team in the West.
It will be harder for them to win the next championship because the Lakers and other strong teams have enough time to rest until next season. I mean, players won't be injured as often as they have been this season. Anyway, the Suns have all chance to win this final if they will be playing as well as in the first game.

Everyone seems to be talking about the Suns winning in the Finals, what if the Bucks will win in game 2? what would be the speculation then? I get it, the Suns had a great game 1 performance, but we still can't deny that the Bucks came from hard-fought before going to the NBA Finals, therefore, I believe they'll not easily give up the fight here and would bounce back soon.
Giannis in game 1 did not produce lots of points, since I think what happen he is still thinking about his legs, and we might see a different Giannis in game 2, and its more of adjustments, for every team, so I'm not counting out the bucks and declare the suns the champ, remember the bucks also down a game in the playoffs and they all beat those teams.

I think you already answer your question, but for me, at the start, I get curious whats cryptocurrency, my friends introduce it to me way back in 2015 2016, and I just don't want to disappoint them so I decided to give it a try, but after that, i stop, for the sake of friendship, but after 2016, I try it again and earn some money, but I never imagine I will be still here, and investing.

there will be no next ETH , I
 think what you trying to say is what coin can compete with eth? the close ones will be Polkadot in my opinion, and Cardano, this will be the top competitor of ethereum since and I'm excited about what they are going to offer and show to the world, be able to match ethereum.
49  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Quick advice to new crypto investors on: July 05, 2021, 03:56:16 AM
my advice is don't just put your money right away, if you heard that there is a big profit, instead make research, study how things work, wait for an opportunity, don't think of your too late if you don't put the money it will be your regrets, and also this one is most important if the market goes red that's an opportunity, people I heard say it will die now, but people who are not new to that situation, take it as an opportunity to get ahead of others.

it's now in the hands of the bucks coach, for the bucks to coach now he uncovers Lopez is still and can be dominant, this now put Lopez against Ayton, and this is where experience matter, yes Lopez is old but with past experience, paul need to find a way to get to Ayton, because for sure Lopez will use everything that he knows against Ayton, and correct me if I'm wrong tucker will be guarding, paul or booker, and the advantage of tucker is bigger, don't count the bucks yet, they almost have the same productive bench.
51  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: July 04, 2021, 01:07:19 PM
He is not even in a minute restriction, the coach is great but in that game, he made a bad decision. Getting too desperate is not good, instead of trusting the healthy players, he force to play Young, of course, as a coach he has the say, he could have sit Trae Young when he saw Trae Young was messing on the floor.
Coach's always had the final decision to take him out or not but this time I don't think the coach was followed.
There's a possibility that Trae forced himself to play the game thinking it might be the last game of the Hawks.
Should've done the same as Giannis, it's simple "trust your teammates".
They wouldn't have reached the ECF without them so they can somehow get through it and win the game if he only trusted them.
Turnovers + missed shots 4/17 FG and 0-6 3pt = destruction.  Grin I don't blame all on him but he did most of the damage for 35 minutes.
yep, huge mistake by the hawk's coach, cam reddish is hot they should have sat young, he can't even defend because of the injury, the coach could have end trae career if something happens, in the game because he already knows trae is injured, and as a franchise player, he knows better, young still young and could prepare for another campaign next year.
52  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Ignorance and greed, that's the cause of it all, everyone be warned. on: July 04, 2021, 10:14:13 AM
I think sometimes the situation of the person, played a vital role to be scam although he already knew what is going to happen since, maybe his situation and emotion, are combining to be more impulsive, and correct greediness also one of the reasons someone gets scam, because of the reward or promise he forgets that it's just a way to lure, him and invests his earning to it.
53  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: July 04, 2021, 05:39:32 AM
Trae should have sat out, clearly, he's not even close to 75% on his game, they could have made better plays if he just rests, seeing him in the court, not playing the same level against the sixers breaks my heart, we all know how he wanted to help, it's just that he is injured and want to give support to the team, I hope he will not be discouraged, and play to the next level next year, congrats bucks.

is there any country that totally banned bitcoin? for example, our countries do not have any policy against bitcoin, as far as I know, only those scam investment that uses bitcoin are not allowed of course, also heard a news that the stock exchange here is opening its way to crypto, but if what you say is going to happen, ill probably just keep my crypto and wait, for them to allow the use and trading because as far as I know, they can't totally ban it.
55  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What happen if US ban cryptocurrencies? on: July 03, 2021, 10:40:48 AM
Do you guys think one day USA may ban cryptocurrencies? If yes what would happen? I think it's not totally impossible and that would be a global crash on prices.
if they are really serious about banning bitcoin, they should have shut it down from the year 2010 to 2017, what they only do is harass and chase bitcoin holders, maybe they also take the bitcoin, and keep it, other countries have done it to like saying in the news china, Russia, but in the end, they end up, allowing it, it's already too late to stop cryptocurrency, what they can only do is to regulate, pass a bill, regulating, and paying taxes, i think that's their no.1 target to milk taxes from the people who holds it, that's not far from being a reality I think, that's what the government is leaning in.

Bucks have the advantage against Hawks, 3-2 as they won the fifth game 123-112. Trae Young and Giannis both didn't play in this game as they were still injured. I expected a little boring game because of it but it was quite good actually. B. Lopez made me really surprised as he scored 33 points and was one of the players carried the team to the victory. At Hawks, Bogdanovic had 28 points and was the most scorer of the team. But it wasn't enough for getting a win I'm afraid.

I'm expecting a somewhat low scoring ball game, but even without their stars, points are being scored, specially Brook Lopez who has 30+ or more. Bogdanovic missed a lot of shoots, he has been nursing some injury if I'm not mistaken, but he keeps on showing every game.

If Giannis comes back, I believe that Bucks will finish the series and be the opponent of Suns in the final series.

I have a feeling that Giannis will sit on the next game still and take a rest. The pressure is on the Hawks right now. They have to win otherwise the Bucks are going into the finals vs Phoenix.
Same here, they won't put Giannis future in jeopardy, even though they see no problem in the injury, they have to make decisions with caution, sometimes, an injury seems okay and they don't feel something wrong then after they play something went wrong, and that's they don't want to happen, they still have the lead so they can afford to sit Giannis, just to be sure.

We all see that, and we are also surprise with Lopez as he did not only contributed on the offense but on the defensive end as well.
That confidence should still remain as they need that to close out the game in game 6.

If Giannis comes back, I believe that Bucks will finish the series and be the opponent of Suns in the final series.
Giannis might not be able to come back in this series, of if he will, he would not force in game 6 as they are on the lead, it will be game 7 I guess.
However, I think it's Trae Young that will likely to come back, not Giannis.
Lopez played important role in game 6 and game 7 in the Brooklyn series, even though nobody noticed, during those games, he made crucial baskets, and alter shoots underneath, blocks, and intimidation, same with this hawks series, Giannis might not also play if they make it to the finals, since we still don't know how serious those injuries and the medical staff might rule him out of the remaining bucks games, to protect him and for the future of the franchise also.

another hype coin being pump and luring people who never make single research for the coin, just only monitor what Elon has to tweet and decipher it to some coin, and then when things get worse they will get mad at Elon if they really want to earn they need to do more research and not just listen to a person opinion, and tweets, investing to solid projects is important unlike that one and done coins.
59  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: July 02, 2021, 10:58:04 AM
Well, It seems that this way the teams were more balanced and as incredible as it may seem, in my opinion I even believe the Bucks played better without Giannis in Game 5 than with him in Game 4. By the way, Portis played very well, he surprised me a lot.

He is, it's not actually that surprising. It's just that they didn't give him quality minutes once he heats up. But, every time they used him to rest Giannis he can score and make the fans go wild. Crazy Eyes!  Grin
Hawks is hurt more when it comes to injuries. Trae is a big part of their team for the play to work while Giannis can do isolation games only. Then, there's Bogdanovic's knee injury that slows him down.
Bucks may finish this at Atlanta if they can't find a way to counter-attack.
Trae Young needs to be back next game, it is crucial game for them, it will be in their home court so we should expect that they will give everything. So hopefully, if Young is back, it will be a different ball game for the Hawks. They need him badly as Sweet Lou didn't have the same game he had. Bucks storm and build some lead just in the first quarter. So Hawks has to cover a lot of grounds, Brook Lopez dominated them inside. I'm still thinking though if Hawks can extend the series.
Bucks coach knows how to use his players, there are lots of players in the bench that can score, and I'm not surprised about portis because he can score, also a mid-build big man, and it's not about Giannis, Middleton is a star, in the shadow, he is the closeout player, every time Giannis struggles, that is why I'm not bothered, in this matchup, what I'm bothered about is when bucks advance, who can much Ayton in the paint, it will be a massacre

And Suns finished the job last night! They managed to beat Clippers 130-103 away.

This time, P. George wasn't that good. But even if he scored 20 more points, it wouldn't still be enough for a victory. C. Paul made the big difference in this game. He was incredibly great. He got 41 PTS, 4 REB, 8 AST. He got more than 50% FG and made 7 out of 8 3-pointer attempts.

Now, they are waiting for their opponent. Whichever team become their opponent, I think that they will have a hard time against Suns.
When you are playing in the league for 16 seasons and you are one win away from going to the NBA Finals for the first time in your career, you will do everything just to go there and that is what CP3 did. During an interview, he can't say anything because of his happiness. That feeling when you are in the league for 16 seasons and finally you are going to the NBA Finals and 4 wins away from winning his first title.

Now unto the other conference. If Giannis will be out tomorrow in Game 5 and Trae will be out as well, I believe that the Hawks might make another upset again and win on the road. The Bucks might win though if Middleton will step up as well as Holiday and other players in terms of defense and offense.

Just my prediction but I think it will be Suns Vs. Hawks Cheesy.

Suns vs Hawks, it's a great series but I think the Suns has all the edge to win the series.

CP3 and company will win the championship, they have been playing with solid defense and offense, and they have a good chemistry.
I mean everyone is contributing and they really live up the challenge.

They maybe are not the number 1  but in the playoffs they are now.
I think the bucks still have the chance remember the player who always finishes the game is Middleton, now that Giannis is not playing, it will be Middletons duty to lead the team they have lots of decent players, Lopez should also step up, who always show he can when it matters, like in the brooklyn series, i'll be happy, if both players can return, so that we don't have excuses who is better on those two remaining in the east.
