I don't know what's really going on as we all know that there are still have a possibility that the Boston Celtics will win in their next game and we all know how they played they are very good in both offense and defense they have the Momentum and also they have a good play and that's the reason why they will win the game 5 and in game 6 if Miami still don't beat the celtics then there's a chance that Boston can make a noise and nig comeback in the history of basketball.

It's become a really crazy game, and Boston Celtics just need to win the next game to force a game 7 with home court advantage, it's really going to be a really crazy scenario, and it's become almost the best series of the playoffs so far, but the Heat home would require more than what the Boston Celtics did in games 5 to win the next game.

I really hope that the Heat their absentees can be available so it's that can be somewhat even and more interesting.

With or without Vincent this is going to be a good game.  Last game miami walked into a trap game no way they were gonna win that one.  Home court this deep into the playoffs is a crazy thing.  And if Boston somehow sneaks out a game, that Boston crowd is gonna be unreal.  I hope Boston wins so we can see that game 7.

Looks like Boston wasn’t ready to go fishing just yet. They outplayed the Heat in pretty much every category and with Bam being Miami’s leading scorer it won’t be easy for them to get a win. The Heat are still in control of this series so there isn’t reason to panic just yet, but I’m sure they don’t want to lose the next one and let this go to game 7.

No panic yet, but there will be a developing one comes game 6 especially when the Celtics are still in rhythm and will most probably going to outplay the Heat. 2 consecutive blowout games doesn't sound good to me even when the Heat is up 1 game away from the Finals. Like what I've said, they should never be comfortable until the job is done. Jimmy needs to wake up and shake things up to awaken his inner Jordan. Another lose on Saturday means they're most likely gonna throw this one away. Thing that I don't want it to happen as it validates the ESPN's analyst on the Heat's chances of winning, I can't take it that's just straight forward disrespectful.
Hope the Heat will finish this one up in game 6, because they're not gonna like it heading to game 7 lacking a lot of momentum.

A need for big adjustment for the Heat especially for Jimmy. Bam can't carry it alone, but with the whole squad, the winning chance is still good
for the Heat moving back home.

I would love to see Jimmy pressing the button of his cheat mode. Earlier it was the shooting stroke of Boston, especially the 3's that hurt
Miami as they really dominated from the rainbow arc.

Tight defense and good rotations of the ball is what I'm expecting from the Heat playing at home.

Jimmy won't have a bad game every time; he'll get better, especially on their home court. The Celtics have been fortunate to secure two straight wins, but they need to remember that the Heat only need one win to end the series. Therefore, the Heat must give everything they have in Game 6. It's now or never for them because losing Game 6 is akin to losing the series. It's not realistic to expect a win in Game 7 at the opponent's home court.

Jimmy's success leans on the teams 3 point shooting.  Jimmy plays in the paint and within 18 feet of the bucket.  If the heat don't light it up from beyond the arc the other teams can just pack it in tight and chokehold his game.  Weirdly enough Jimmy suffered with Vincent out of the starting lineup.  Heat have to win game 6 otherwise I think this one is over for them if it goes to a game 7.

I highly doubt that Celtics could do anything to win, not just game based but the series. Why? Because not only they are trailing 3-1, you need them to win one more to put pressure on Heat, then another one if they can snatch a win, and then another one thanks to momentum... That's 3 games in a row and you are expecting Heat to just be dumbfounded during all this time? Obviously not, just a single game, one game where the ball doesn't drop as well as you hope for, and you got yourself a loss of the series.

I still think that Heat will end it tonight and we are going to see them get a few days rest, it is going to be an easy game for them and I do not see a way out of this by Celtics, no matter how much they try and how hard they work, it won't happen.

How can you say this will be an easy game for them. Gabe Vincent is out and they are playing in Boston.  Closeout games are really hard this will be anything but easy.  My guess is that Boston wins by around 15 or so.  If mii doesn't take out the crowd early this is going to be a long night for miami.

The views on memecoins is rediculous.  No one can tell me a project based on some joke that has no attainable goal with people piling theor money into it isn't rediculous.  Can people make money on it yeah but they are basically all ponzis.  None of them will last so eventually someone will be left holding the bag.  Greater fool theory.  Buyer beware..

Lot of people coming in on the Heat and I can see why but the high spread is a dead giveaway trap game from Vegas.  Its like they are enticing heat bets.  There's something more to this game but if I had to guess this is gonna be one of them Celtics blowout games.  I'm gonna tease the line all the way to 12.5 for the Celtics. 

Good luck everyone Smiley)

Next year will be my first bull run and have just been thinking about what will be best to do when it finally arrives next year.

Do you plan on just holding till an amount you are happy with or is it a good idea to try and trade altcoins whilst they are pumping to earn even more?

First mistake you made was basically saying next year there is a guaranteed bull run.  Second is trying to hit a moving target with trading.  If you are new to trading, it's almost more difficult trading in a bull market market because of the opportunity loss by trading at the wrong times.
1267  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 25, 2023, 08:15:33 PM
I tossed a couple bucks on the Miami Heat to close out the Boston Celtics tonight. I think Bston gave it their all last game to avoid a sweep and now it’s time for them to go fishing and leave the Finals for a matchup between the Heat and the Nuggets. I think the Nuggets will win that series fairly easily as Miami just doesn’t have enough talent.

Same here. I took the ML while leaning on the Heat to win because I believe that if ever the Celtics will win the game later, it will be a blown out win and the handicap might be useless to do. But I reckon that it may not be possible because other than the fact that the Celtics doesn't have any homecourt advantage, they have already fulfilled their wishes and this time, they know that it's already done.

It's been a good run for the whole franchise but I do think they are already seeing the nearing end. Seems like they were just being overrated all this time because instead of bouncing back, they ended up choking in the most important phase in conference playoffs and failed to participate in the Finals again.

I mean they might not make it but you are counting them out as if the game already happened.  This will be one of the toughest games Miami plays all year long.  Trying to win a closeout game on the road in Boston won't be easy.  They better get out to a big lead early amd take the crowd out of it otherwise they are in for a long game.  Now game 6 might be different bit if you think Boston is going to lay down like a sick dog you haven't watched enough playoff basketball to understand how it goes.  There is no guarantee Boston wins but it's not going be a Celtics loss because they just gave up.

Crazy that people are talking about trading LeBron to the Warriors… I’m not sure what LA would get from that. LeBron sells tons of jerseys and tickets, not to mention he carries teams to the postseason. This would be the greatest thing to ever happen to the Warriors franchise. I can’t see it happening though.

I think the greatest thing to ever happen to the warriors franchise already happened but I get your point.  I don't see LA hooking lebron up just because he's lebron.  Golden states draft picks don't entice you, if they ask for too much than why would golden state do the deal, etc.  People are just playing nba2k too much this will never happen.
1269  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you been threaten to stop gambling on: May 24, 2023, 09:52:36 PM
This actually happens if there is a similar thread I'll lock this thread.

My friend invited me for a round of drinks just last night to confess something, and that is his wife threatened to leave their house and file for legal separation because the wife just discovered that he's spending a lot of time gambling, she thought that he's just playing games but she discovered his logged because the idiot has his password in the browser, so the wife check his withdrawal and voila his losing a lot of money and she also discovered that he won big money in the past but didn't tell her.

I guess that blew her patience for not telling his winning, so he threaten that he should stop gambling or they part ways, my friend choose his wife so he cannot play until he can convince his wife and promise her to tell her if he won big. Cheesy

How about you have you been threatened by your wife, your girlfriend, or your parents, if so tell us your story.



I mean depending on the situation it can be completely warranted.  There are some people who do.t like gambling at all but if it's controlled its fine.  But if you are blowing your life savings and ruining your family's life then yeah I would hope someone would step in and give you an ultimatum.  I never have been but again only gamble what you can afford to lose and you should be all good.

I'm all in on Denver for a 4 game sweep.  I just said in another thread I will be betting Celtics in game 4 because It's hard to sweep.  But in this one they just can't stop jokic and none of the backcourt can hang with Murray.  I'm taking the odds and taking the money line on Denver.

Good luck everyone.

Easy money betting Denver this series.  I can't see either miami or Celtics giving them a real run.  Who is going to stop jokic out of those 2 teams.  The only team that matched up ok against Denver was probably the sixers.  With theor foul merchants they could have used that to get to Denver bench.  No matter the opponent I can't see more than a 5 game series.  Betting Denver every game in the finals.
1272  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 24, 2023, 09:42:14 PM
I believe that Heat will win the fifth game, they are much more likely. That will give both teams a bit to relax and that will be fine. I am not entirely sure how easy or hard that game will be but I know that Heat has a huge advantage and that gives "hopeless" feelings to Celtics. Not that they can't win, look at how they won this one, so it is obvious that they are capable of winning, but I feel like they are not going to get that again, Heat played unlike they used to so far, and they were looking like they underestimated Celtics, they won't do that mistake again.

We just need to look forward, I will double my bet each time Celtics wins and will bet on Heat and eventually win that for sure, that's easy betting right there. I just don't know about the finals though.

Back in Boston I'm betting on Boston to win this one.  All it takes is one demt in the armor.  Celtics are going to be playing all out with the crowd behind them.  If they get a lead early amd the crowd stays in it I can actually see the Celtics throwing in a blowout in this game and win by 15+.  Game 6 is the game I want to see
1273  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 24, 2023, 04:40:22 PM
Heat just proven that ESPN's analytics is just another analytics but not the actuality of what can happen into the game and match ups.

Celtics has already gone even before this game started. It's like more of formality that they'll be seen on the game 4 and they should have just conceded to allow the win to Heat but I don't know if this is allowed as per NBA ruling.

I will also say that Miami Heat and Nuggets are going to be the finalists.
You're not the only one that sees that, most of us have it in our minds that these two will be the ones playing the NBA finals.

No ypu can't just concede a game and in the world we live in if it was even remotely determined they threw the game it would cause an earthquake in sports.  Being down 0-3 is not optimal but why wouldn't you think they wouldn't try.  I means it's for the right to go to the finals.  I'm throwing money on the Celtics it's tough to get a straight sweep in the playoffs.
When their ego and morale is down and it's been seen like there's a hint that they just want to end it up. I thought that by just not showing up to the game and they'll just give the win to the opponent by default is like the quickest way to do it. But I get the point and this is pro-basketball and as long as there's a chance, it should be played.

@livingfree,
Actually, I was a little disappointed, to be honest with the performance that the Lakers have shown.
At the start, I really did not think that these two are actually going to be the finalist.
That's why I am genuinely a little surprised.
When they're down by two, everyone expected by third game it will be theirs but we're all wrong with that expectation and that goes to show that we have the idea where this is going.

And this is why the games are played.  Past results don't equal future predictions.  This is for a shot at the finals did you really think they are just gonna lay down and say nah we'll give it a go next year you guys can take this one lol.  This isn't recreation sports.  This is the highest level in the world.  Not to mention these dude make millions a year to play
1274  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Could Litecoin Really Go Parabolic This Summer? on: May 22, 2023, 08:23:12 PM
The next Litecoin halving event is coming in August, and that has investors excited about this coin's future upside potential.
  Seemingly out of nowhere, Litecoin (CRYPTO: LTC) is on the move again. The coin is up 13% over the past seven days after significantly underperforming the market for much of the year. Over that same period, both Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) are basically flat.
What are your thoughts on this litecoin resurgence?
https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/05/20/could-litecoin-really-go-parabolic-this-summer/&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwjVkKLGwYf_AhWSh1wKHSZeA644ChDF9AF6BAgFEAI&usg=AOvVaw15_1gXfZa3YHxMgRUwxc7c

I don't know if I'd say parabolic but it will likely tail bitcoin like it always had.  When bitcoin goes up so does litecoin.  When bitcoin goes down so does litecoin.  So what you really need to ask do you think bitcoin is going to go parabolic.  Then you will find your answer on litecoin.  But in that case why wouldn't you just buy bitcoin to begin with Smiley

I am looking to add one more Crypto to my portfolio and thinking Cardano but wondering how high this can really go during the next bull run.

I am looking for a 10x minimum between now and bull run and the current price is £0.29 with a £10billion market cap - the chances of Cardano doing a 10x next bull run are likely right?

I do not know too much about Cardano just that it is current top 10 and many rave about it, would be good to hear thoughts on this both good and bad.

If you don't know too much about it why would you think they could 10x BEFORE a bull run.  Don't take anyone's advise here they are just gonna shill you a bag.  Instead put your head down and start looking into it for yourself.  Can you answer why do.you think it's likely to 10x when ypu don't know anything about it?  Wierd comment

What do you think ?
What’s your investment strategy and winner tips ?

Winning tips is to not buy high and sell.low lol.  No honestly stick by Warren buffets advise, be greedy when people are fearful and be fearful when people are greedy.  Meaning don't get caught up in buying crap at top dollar in a bull market you will end up left with the bag.  Look into projects for yourself and don't take trading tips on coins from random people.  Most likely they are trying to shill their bag.  And use the theory of cost averaging, both up and down.  It's a good risk aversion strategy.

Went 1 for 2 hit the over but sucked it up with a Celtics ML loss.  Boston is in trouble no doubt.  For tonight's game I'm taking Denver money line.  Going to be tough to win in LA but I think this is where Denver starts to step on tueor throat.  Bold prediction: lebron 0-7 from 3 and LA losses by 3. 

Good luck and enjoy the game!
