Bitcoin potential is very good and bitcoin will definitely become the best crypto as no other currency can easily make their position like bitcoin. Thinking about the future, people are choosing bitcoin as a savings and even if the economy suffers due to war bitcoin will have no effect. Bitcoin Has High Potential All investors are optimistic that bitcoin will reach higher heights.
Well, despite all these things, I wouldn't recommend anyone making investments or keeping their savings in Bitcoin unless they understand each and everything. There is no doubt that Bitcoin is very good, it is the best cryptocurrency and one of the best innovative ideas of this era, and since it has a limited supply, it tends to go higher in price over time, but as we all know something can't keep going in one direction if it's volatile, so it has its risks as well.

When someone is choosing Bitcoin as a place for them to save their money, they need to understand all these things, they need to know that it is possible that one day when they wake up, they might see that the money they had saved in Bitcoin has lost 30% value because it is a volatile asset and that can happen.
It is definitely a very nerve wrecking thing, it is not that simple, and we need to realize that we can't hold it without any anxiety at all. There will be a lot of ups and a lot of downs, which is why we need to be careful about this period for sure. I need to really emphasize the fact that there will be moments when you will hate the fact that you ever bought bitcoin, because price will be a lot worse and you will rue the day you bought it at that price.

I personally believe that you will not be worried about those days, because price going down is still fine and could be done but the reality is that we are going to see a situation where you will get a lot worse if you buy when it is high, selling when it is low isn't even that bad compared to it.

Doesn't it feel like Liverpool have started to play more comfortably after losing their chance for the PL title?  Grin  It really feels like that for me honestly.

While they were in the title race they were making more mistakes. They lost points in really unbelievable matches and gave up on the league too early. Now we see that Liverpool are beating one of the toughest teams this season. This shouldn't have been the way for Klopp to say goodbye but there is nothing to do.  Sad  There was some tension between him and Salah recently too so I wonder if they have worked it out.
It's true, Liverpool don't have any targets in this game, all the trophies have been lost from their target after failing to maintain their best performance some time ago, they are also certain to qualify for the Champions League next season. I put more emphasis on Aston Villa in this match, they were so enthusiastic about getting points at their home ground after trailing 3-1. As a result of their motivation to appear in the Champions League next season, they were able to add two goals which made the match draw again at 3-3. Aston Villa must succeed in securing three points in their final match of the season to ensure a ticket to the Champions League. Crystal Palace is the team they will face in the next match. They can win at Crystal Palace headquarters if they are able to maintain their performance like this.
I mean Europa is gone, fa cup is gone, league third is basically guaranteed at this point, they have absolutely nothing to play anymore, they are going to just relax and let the season end at this point, which is going to be fine if you ask me, they just need to make sure they are playing fine.

I think it's clear that we are going to get some trouble if we try to keep on betting on their games because they do not care so it won't be that easy. I get that it may take a while for people to realize this, but they may lose to anyone, or get a draw or they may end up winning too of course but we do not know how much they will care about that so betting on their game doesn't really make sense to me at all, seems like it would be bad.

Many people talk about success but not everyone can do it because luck factors, financial factors, relationships and good plans must be combined so that all become a unity that can support us to live life well and we can consider success even though it is our own version of success.
All need hard work to produce, especially if our hobby in this investment journey likes trading from market to technical issues, there must be knowledge, otherwise don't expect profits to come close. Related to the title, OP is also very directing, and indeed when the market conditions are right, we enter directly in the new pump, it is called luck.

Yes. "Many people talk about success but not everyone can do it" You are right in this matter, where often whether we or many others most of them fail and lose in this investment for various personal reasons of course after we enter the market.
I feel like a lot of people who see others get lucky, end up thinking that everyone gets lucky. It is true that there are some people who invested into some dumb stuff or invested without knowing anything and got rich, I have seen a lot of people who just got lucky and did nothing else, they didn't know what trading was, they just did something stupid and got rich.

The reality is that not all people get rich that way though, a lot of people knows what they are doing and they get rich that way and we shouldn't really be doing anything else that way. We can't really make it work one way or another, we need to find out what is so complicated about trading and learn about it and untangle the mess and fix all of it to be a lot better.

Actually, seeing from the contribution given by Nunez, it is quite possible for him to be one of the players on the sales list next season because seeing from the achievements he has made at Liverpool over the past 2 seasons I think there is nothing special and even tends to be bad in Liverpool's attack line.

60 matches in 2 seasons he did but he only scored 20 goals and in my opinion it is not too good for the size of a striker whose price is more than 100 million so in this case it is quite natural that he is one of the players on the sell list.

But looking at some considerations about the Barcelona and Nunez rumours I think this becomes a little more funny because we know the price of Nunez is not cheap and with what Barcelona are buying this player now? Moreover, seeing the statement from Klopp it seems that this rumour is only exaggerated to increase reader traffic by some media.
It's true, Darwin Nunez hasn't contributed much to Liverpool, so I agree with you that he will most likely be a player that Liverpool will sell. For the first season, maybe I would have thought he needed adaptation when he played not according to expectations, but this is his second season and in his performance he has not provided good development in Liverpool's front line. At such a high price and with his appearance, in my opinion it is one of the transfers that is not worth it.

Now rumors are circulating that Barcelona are interested in bringing in Darwin Nunez. Honestly, I don't think in terms of what they are assessing this player, because in terms of his performance with Liverpool he didn't play according to expectations. especially with the high costs that Barcelona will certainly incur, will they hesitate to do it? they must be able to consider everything as best as possible before they make a decision.
I mean he isn't as good as Liverpool thought he was, they thought that they found a gem that would be amazing. I bet you that if you take this Firmino, and I am not even saying young version, I am saying the current one we have, and put him where Nunez plays, and I guarantee you that Firmino would have done better than Nunez did all season long.

But, they do not realize that and they think that they are doing fine. It is clear that we are going to end up with Nunez getting fired eventually, they will try to sell him to whatever team is willing to pay the most money, he is not needed and should be considered as something that matters the most. I believe that if they can get another striker, but a proper one who can score, they could have been champions this year.

While you are scared, El Salvador keeps buying the dip every day.

it seems like El Salvador is taking advantage of the current market conditions and adding to their Bitcoin holdings. As of now, they own 5,700 Bitcoin, which is quite a significant amount. It's an interesting strategy and shows their confidence in the long-term potential of cryptocurrency.
anyways for now i'm happy about the halving and will be celebrating it with the Halving carnival Bitget exchange is organizing, who knows if i can win some free bucks and buy bitcoin too
Buying as low as you can try to buy is the best way to get richer when the market normalizes. All the rich investors in the world has gotten richer that way, you wait until something major happens, then when things go down you end up buying those things and then you end up selling it or even keeping it.

You think Warren Buffet got rich because he knew what would make money? Hell his biggest holding is Coca Cola and even Pepsi did better than that, their rival, so he doesn't know which company would do better or not, dude was friends with Bill Gates for 3 decades, and still failed to see the increase there. But then, how did he do it? He invested carefully into boring companies with a ton of money from other people, that's it, specially when those things went down, he wasn't scared and put all his money in during bad times.

I have always looked towards that as a means for Arsenal to win the Premier League Competition. But its okay with three poi if they cannot get those goals, one last game against Sean Dyche and Everton lads at home in presence of the fans I'm sure Everton will want to be compact.
Eveton is also a club who deserves them flowers because despite all of thr point deduction and stuff's they're still in a good position band place safe from relegation.
I think, if Sean Dyche is supported with some quality players that suits his style he will do excellent next season.

It's also been a long time, since Arsenal did the double against Manchester United, you don't know how much those gunners valued this win even with a single margin.
They have fought for this, they have earned it, they definitely deserves it

As for the game tonight, Aston Villa will want to defeat Liverpool to seal them place on the top four but will that be possible? Jurgen Klopp has to keep a clean slate as he decides to leave even if he is no longer in the fight for the  Premier League Competition next season.
Meanwhile, Arsenal will be supporting Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday night, but Manchester City are definitely going away from home, they have to be very cautious. I can remember Antonio Conte's side defeating them some seasons back with good numbers. Could this be another, it all depends on how focus theey be for this game.
Arsenal is doing great, they have gathered a lot of points as well, amazing run so far but the fact is that City is so great that they end up still not doing all that great, which is why I think it is quite obvious that we are going to get this type of results in the end, it is not going to be all that complicated in the end.

This is why I believe that we should consider how Arsenal is getting a second place as a good victory for them, not a bad deal and should be considered as a good result for them. Sure they would want to be the champions, but they should not be sad to miss that championship, they should be happy. City is just an another level team, and they are just getting this much points because they are always good.

no one will doubt Leverkusen or Atalanta in this final round, but what Leverkusen must be wary of is that Atalanta is able to provide very strong resistance and Atalanta also has strategies and tactics that are always right.
for example, it is possible that the match will be held to a draw by Atalanta and if it ends in a draw the match will definitely continue to the penalty round and at this point the chances for both teams could be greater or equal.
we may not discuss Atalanta in Serie A too often and this team was not initially the favorite but managed to open the eyes of the whole world to admit that Atalanta performance was quite stable and could be the most difficult opponent for Leverkusen.

the strategy that Xabi uses in every match is always to pressure the opponent's defense in the second half or always be able to score in the final minutes and I'm sure Atalanta already knows this kind of strategy so Leverkusen should try to use other strategies such as having to score more in the first half after that try to focus on defense and in my opinion this is one of the best tactics for Leverkusen.
That press tactic that he has seems to be one of the best that I have seen. Klopp used to have that with gegenpress, he was pressing the other team a lot and that made them so good, but at this point Xabi does even further than that, they are literally pressing all the way to goalkeeper and doing it with multiple players to wherever the ball is constantly.

Normally if the opponent was good enough they could have just passed their way out, that is the thing about getting rid of press, just pass around and tire the other team, but Xabi makes his team press so well that no team has ever managed to do that. Which is why I think they are doing a much better improved version of it without a doubt, 49 unbeaten games is a proof of that.
8  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is going to happen with Bitcoin now? on: May 12, 2024, 08:55:21 AM
Besides bitcoin hitting its ATH before halving due to the impact of bitcoin ETFs, I think history is repeating itself again. The bull season will not come immediately when the halving ends, we need from 6 months to 1 year for the bull season to really come and the fourth quarter of this year is the perfect time.

The market is still the same, it's just that investor psychology is changing, I also made the mistake of expecting too much from the impact of the ETF. But looking back now, I see that history is still repeating itself. After the halving, it will be a pretty boring time for the market before the bull season comes.

A lot of newbies expressed the same disappointment as OP that there wasn't any price increase after the halving. But if they are not speculators and do not intend to get rich quickly, then a bitcoin correction is always a good opportunity, not a time of panic and dumping.
That is true, we are going to see the rise around the late of this year. I am sensing about November should be the small start, there will be a small bull, then on December it will be even bigger bull and then we are going to see just insane increases without a doubt, things that we can't even imagine. like for example I say 100k but I am sure that if 200k happens I would definitely be shocked and yet still can't say it would be unexpected, we need to make sure that we are going to do fine in the end.

We can't keep thinking that things will go worse, we need to realize that we are going to end up with something good in the end. So, just realize that things aren't always that great for people who sell and not wait, because we will go up for sure.
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: After Bitcoin spot ETF, there is Ethereum spot ETF on: May 11, 2024, 08:53:33 PM
Bitcoin has been leading the pact ever since its launch and we will most likely see it continue until the next following years. Even if ethereum etf were to be approved i don’t think it can surpass the success bitcoin has right now.
I do agree that bitcoin will not change much on the long run, I think that would be something unexpected and I do not think that we are going to get that at all. I do get that there are stages when things look like they are not going to get better for bitcoin at times but that is not going to be the case and I am sure that we are going to get better with time as well.

We should realize that the best thing we could do right now would be just realizing that we are not going to get any better. We should probably consider what we can do at this moment would be just expecting bitcoin to always lead crypto, because that seems to be the case so far and I do not think that it will get any different on the long run at all. We should definitely think the best when we are talking about bitcoin.

Premier league title race Fullham travel to Man City today by 12:30pm and Arsenal travel to Manchester united tomorrow by 4:30pm I think if arsenal could be able to win their match against Manchester united tomorrow they will be in safety because they are going to won their remaining match against Everton, while Man City is going to won their match against Fullham today.
Fulham vs Manchester City. The last time Fulham was able to hold Manchester City draw on September 18, 2011, after that Fulham was completely unable to take 1 point when they face Manchester City both when playing home or away. The question is, is it possible that in the midst of Manchester City's ambitions to win the Premier League title this season they will be careless when facing Fulham? I don't think it will happen.

I actually worry about Arsenal to win the match against Manchester United even though in terms of interests I don't want Manchester City to win the four -season PL Trophy in a row.
I do not really think that Arsenal would have trouble at all, I mean have you seen United lately? They are in shambles and they lost to Palace and they are dropping in positions as well, they are really doing quite awful right now. I am not saying that we should not see anything that would be all that crazy. It is clear that we are going to see an Arsenal end up getting a win without a doubt, it should not really be a problem for them to get that win, we are not going to see any trouble at all there.

This is of course football and anything could happen, we have seen in history league last team to win against league first before, that is not unheard of, so this one is more likely, but it is still quite a very low chance for it to happen.

Darwin Núñez the player of Liverpool was recently linked to Barcelona but it seems the news about this player is not real and he won't join Barcelona.
Since Darwin Núñez doesn't have a good relationship with Liverpool there is the possibility for him to leave the team and play in the other team in the next season.
He even posted a picture of himself and Araújo, the player of Barcelona. The picture was taken in Barcelona but it seems he was just visiting his friend Araújo and he won't join Barcelona.
We will never know until it is done but I think that Barcelona wouldn't be too bad of an idea for him. Lewandowski is getting older and I do not think that he has one more season in him, there is a big possibility that we are going to end up with them not doing all that well in the end. Which is why I keep thinking that maybe we are going to end up with something not that great.

It means that we may end up with not a great way to make a replacement but still one that they can do. I think Nunez at Liverpool would be a decent change and he could probably do better there than he did at Liverpool. This is just a rumour of course, there is nothing you can make with just an image, of course he could be just visiting a friend and could leave for another team in the end.

Looking at the opponents that Chelsea will face in terms of player conditions, Chelaea is indeed a favorite in the remaining matches this season, but when talking about the conditions on the field and the situation that occurred at Chelsea, this actually has its own concerns.

We know that during this season Chelsea always have the same problem in consistency. In addition, Chelsea always play well when facing opponents who are balanced in terms of attack, especially when against clubs whose main scheme is offensive and instead Chelsea play passively when facing opponents who prioritize devensife schemes and want a draw in a match.

The last 3 matches have faced clubs that will definitely do a defensive scheme in their matches because given the current situation, surely clubs under Chelsea will take advantage of quick counter-attacks to create momentum and this could be a problem that is sometimes difficult for Chelsea to face in the next 3 matches.
While I do believe that Chelsea has the potential to win every game they have, I also think that we may not get that all due to the fact that we may not have anything that could benefit them in the end even if they do. Newcastle doesn't have that much of a tough ending neither, and the very very best that Chelsea can do would be taking over Newcastle and that's it, which isn't really the thing a team who spends hundred million a year would want to have. Sixth place would be conference league right?

I mean Chelsea being in the conference league feels like a joke to me, we are talking about a team that spends more money on transfers than their opponents would even worth, and yet they would be there. At the very least, they should try to win that next season if nothing else.
13  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: May 10, 2024, 06:19:53 PM
To be honest, I genuinely thought that Paris Saint Germaine were definitely going to eliminate Borussia Dortmund from the UCL competition just after their unbelievable performance at Camp Nou last month that ensured their qualification to play in the semi finals of the UEFA Champions League competition. To concede a home and away defeat to Borussia Dortmund I think is a very poor result for a star studded team like Paris Saint Germaine.
I also thought like that that PSG could qualify for the UCL final this season, but what Dortmund displayed was truly beyond many people's expectations and forced PSG to return to their original place and again not feel like they were champions in the UCL this season. That's the loss for a team that is studded with stars but still hasn't succeeded in getting the UCL trophy and this of course has an impact on the easy matches that PSG often faces in Ligue1 so that when PSG meets opponents who are quite equal, PSG still can't win.
It was definitely a great play there is no doubt about that but we need to also realize that Dortmund got lucky as well. PSG had like 4-5 shots turned from the woodd, that is not all that easy to do in a single game and PSG had that, which means that Dortmund was a bit lucky about this game as well.

I feel like the best thing to do in this case was the fact that we are going to end up with something different. It does not mean that Dortmund didn't deserve it, they are definitely playing very well and they deserve every bit of it, I am just saying that luck helped them a bit too. I am not seeing how Dortmund could beat Real Madrid though, I think its clear that Real will end up getting the cup in the end and get their 15th title, which is insane when you think about how they will have more than double compared to second place.
14  Economy / Speculation / Re: LAST CHANCE TO BUY BITCOIN..... on: May 10, 2024, 05:08:26 PM
I wouldn't say you are wrong, but what you said is a generic speculation and specific to the current scenario of bitcoin market. Because, bitcoin market is a bit confusing state right now, we know, we can see how it dips a bit and goes up again and it has been repeating that for quite some time, but there is no clear indication of anything happening the way you implied it. All of us in the market are hopeful that we will witness a bull run in the next few months, but we aren't completely sure about it, none of us.

One thing is for sure, those who plan to buy and hold bitcoins for a very long term, and by long term I mean maybe the next bull run, then they shouldn't be worried. Otherwise, if someone isn't willing to hold that long, maybe they should wait or maybe use the DCA method to accumulate for now.
I believe that ups and downs will continue to happen for a while, but I believe that we are going to have other chances to buy as well, is this a chance to buy? Of course it is, I believe that eventually we will go up so buying right now can't be all that bad of a decision, but that also doesn't mean that we are going to end up with nothing at all neither.

We just need to realize that we can make some money one way or another, and for that to happen we need to make sure that we have some bitcoins that we are holding. Of course this upsets some people, which is fine and I do not mind it, but we need to realize that life isn't always that easy, sure you may buy and price may drop, you have to learn how to hold it as much as you possibly could.
15  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: May 09, 2024, 06:45:41 PM
Ancellotti did it again.
Real Madrid achieved a miracle last night due to the way the match went.

In the final between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmound, if Ancellotti managed to win it would be his fifth Champions League as a coach, incredible even if he has obviously been coaching for 20 years and almost always in Real Madrid's golden moments.
To be fair he won two with Real Madrid but he won two with Milan as well so we can say that he is a good manager that ends up managing good teams. Why would he have a situation where he wins the UCL with a team that nobody expected to win?

If you are a great manager then they will hire you at a great team. Look at how they have been at Real Madrid since he took over, last season wasn't great because he lost both the league and the UCL as well, but previous year was great for them and this year has been great for them as well. He loses some players and still manages to win, hell they didn't had a proper striker all season long, sure Joselu gave them the Finals last night but at the same time we need to see that all season long they didn't play many games with him. Ancelotti is great, that is the reason he manages great teams.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: May 09, 2024, 05:50:21 PM
The UEFA Champions League is different from Bundesliga. Winning the Bundesliga was a regular thing for them to put in place. Leverkusen was already in possession of tight spot and have become one of the promising team. Bayer Leverkusen are nothing to be comparable to any elite side. Leverkusen are in form and have deliver quite exceptional abilities towards their opponents and obtaining good points on table. Xabi Alonso is a wonderful coach but thinking of maintaining these amazing form till next season, it's not possible.
Can Bayer Leverkusen avoid the mistakes of European football phenomena such as Dortmund, Leicester City, or themselves in the past? Leverkusen's financial potential is not enough for them to retain all the stars in the current squad. Except for coach Alonso signing a new contract, the outstanding talents in the current Leverkusen team are receiving attention from many big clubs. That is the leading reason why they cannot have the same results next year as this season. And the Champions League is not an easy playground like the domestic tournament. This is where legendary coaches and today's top-class players gather. Coach Alonso and his students are just grains of sand compared to the current big teams. Leverkusen needs to always move forward and improve to make the team even better.
I know that they are going to get a lot of their players end up being bought by other teams, but between winning the bundesliga and being in the UCL as well they are going to have a lot of money anyway, and put all the transfer income they will have with all those players, they are going to have huge amount of money.

What I would highly suggest would be just getting players who will play, and no you didn't read that wrong, I am not saying "good" or great players, that is something you look afterwards, of course it is better to get good players, but they can't afford to have some Eden Hazard situation, they do not need great players at first, they need players who will actually play, and after they are sure the players they are looking into are capable of playing, then they need to look which of them are actually good. Because I am sure that with this much income, they may end up spending on wrong players and suddenly be terrible in a few years again.
17  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: May 09, 2024, 11:58:22 AM
Lyon has been impressive in the last few matches because they beat Brest, Monaco, and also Lille, a team that is above them and these three matches were difficult matches for Lyon because we can see how they ensured victory in the final minutes of the match.
I don't know how big Lyon's chances are of being able to get a ticket to one of the European competitions next season, If we look at their next two opposing teams, they should be able to get six points, but unfortunately, their fate is determined by the results of the teams above them, but if they fail to get that, it's still they did very impressively movement because they had stumbled at the bottom of the standings at the start of the season.
They really need all those wins because they are fighting for a spot at the European competitions next season and by the looks of it either they will get in or they will miss with very few points. The start that they had was something horrible and the way they are getting better right now, if they had just a few wins at the first 10 weeks then they would have been in a much better situation but they had absolutely nothing going for them at that moment.

I think it's quite clear that we are going to see Lyon be better next season so they want to make sure that they can go to Europe in order to make a bit more money, even if they can it would probably be just conference league but if they keep getting better like this then there is a chance that they could win it all as well.

Congratulations are indeed appropriate to be given to Real Madrid, because the journey was long and so dramatic in every match they played and in the end Real Madrid managed to qualify for the semifinals to meet Bayern Munich. In my opinion, Bayern Munich defended because Real Madrid put too much attacking pressure so that all of Bayern Munich's front players came down to help their defense line so they didn't concede. This does not mean that Bayern Munich did not attack Real Madrid's goal, it was proven that in the second half Bayern Munich was able to score a goal first against Real Madrid and finally Bayern Munich conceded in the final minutes.

I think in this match no one can be blamed just because the coach sent the wrong player. Bayern Munich tried to work hard and played very well in this match, but Real Madrid always played aggressively and continued to put pressure on Bayern Munich's goal until Neuer was unable to secure the ball. In the final Real Madrid will meet Dortmund, of course Real Madrid will be favored by everyone, because Real Madrid has the ability to play very well in their game. However, Real Madrid also has to remain careful about attacks from Dortmund, because Dortmund is able to outwit its opponent's movements. So we just have to wait for this Final match to start, who will be the UEFA champion this season.
That is true, and not like they had an easy road neither, they played against City and Bayern Munich in the last two rounds which are teams that normally dominate their own league. Surely when we look at Bayern they looked not so great this season but they were still Bayern Munich and it is normal to assume that they are going to be a tough team. We can congratulate Real Madrid on a last minute recovery and win, but we need to realize that they required 2 goals in the last 3 minutes to be able to beat Bayern, which shows the power of Bayern Munich as well.

All in all, the biggest shock was definitely Joselu who made it happen, it must be the happiest day of his life without a doubt, this dude was a fan on the stands 2 years ago when Real played at the finals, now he helped them get to finals, that is like a movie scenario.

This week there will be two decisive matches for Roma, one of which must complete the second leg against Leverkusen in the European league and after that they still have to face Atalanta in the fight for a place in next season's champions league. It is clear that Roma's situation is so pressing with this tough schedule that they have to play totally without reducing anything.

De Rossi has done well for the rest of the season after replacing Mourinho and could even put Roma in contention for European competition. If it weren't for De Rossi, Roma would definitely have difficulty being in their current position. I still believe De Rossi will open a wide path for a more competitive journey for Roma in the future.
I am pretty sure that they are going to lose the Leverkusen game anyway, they should not really care about that game all that much because they are not going to go there at all. I am not sure about the champions league though? Is it because the cup game or something?

I think they are fighting for the europa league and not champions leage, no? If that is the case then they should definitely play their hearts out because Atalanta will definitely do that, while Atalanta also has their own game to play against Marseille as well so both teams are in semi-similar situations if you ask me and mean a lot to win that much money from UCL next season. There is like 30 million euros or so to be made from being in the group stages of UCL so both teams would benefit highly from that kind of money.

As everyone expected the Boston Celtics got a dominant win over the Cavaliers. They're just too much better of a team. I was a bit surprised to see Dallas get beaten by so much by the Thunder. I’ve underestimated the Thunder along with everyone else all year, but I thought this would be as far as they go. If they get to round 3 I might have to start paying attention.

OKC just showed the entire NBA fans why they were No. 1 seed of their conference, it was no fluke! Yeah, I didn't anticipate such a terrific offense from Oklahoma City Thunder, and they also limited Doncic efficiency and Dallas to a joint lowest point scored for this playoffs. Luka hasn't at any point been 100% fit, and I really do hope he hasn't aggravated his injury because for Dallas to stand a chance here Luka Doncic is a must have for this series.
I mean it is just one game, sure they are leading the series right now 1-0 but that was the first home game, and they rested a bit more if I believe so. I am not saying OKC isn't a better team, they may very well be the better team and to be fair we have seen OKC play much better, and SGA played like an MVP if you ask me, that is for sure true.

However, we need to just calm down about it, it's been just one game, what happens if they lose the second game, they lose their home court advantage, we should consider that as something quite important. I am not saying that it is not going to be all that complicated, we are not really looking at it any different way, we are just focusing on the wrong thing at the wrong time for the moment if you ask me.
