Gone are the days when slam dunk contests have always been the most awaited thing during the all star weekend. It's really far from the usual and exciting slam dunk contest that we've watched and waited in the past years. Maybe they'll do better next year. But still, I have to congrulate Obi Toppin on his win.

It's gone because of social media and lots of street dunkers uploading their videos that make the dunks in the NBA looks childish. Though you cannot compare the two because those dunks on the streets took many attempts to be perfected but they uploaded their perfect dunks which makes the NBA slamdunk contest uninteresting to watch. nevertheless, the selected players have done their best this year, and look like they gonna changed the mechanics this year with this result.
They should. Something new. Something "in". I was not entertained at all with the dunks unlike when Zach Lavine does it and of course Aaron Gordon.
That's one of the best head-to-head Slam Dunk contests that I have seen and I am grateful I witnessed it. Maybe changing it to a team might make it better like what they did with the skill competition which also relies on teamwork and chemistry. Team Cavaliers did great there, especially the passing skills where they are surprisingly in good sync.

Maybe since almost all dunks styles are now performed and shown in the history of the NBA All-Star Dunk contest, participants are having a difficult time thinking of something new. Maybe we have to wait again before there will be the likes of Lavine and Gordon to participate. It took over a decade from the Vince Carter championship to Lavine's first Dunk championship.

But if some people here are watching dunk contest outside NBA, you can see them creative and really awesome. Why NBA players can't do that?
1062  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: February 20, 2022, 11:59:23 PM
I'm under the impression that his medical condition have been cured already that is why he is willing to go and train and fight Butler again.

It won't be a problem, and with his conditioning coach, they can devise a plan on how to carefully shed off that excess weight naturally so that it won't be any harder for him fight night.

His medical condition don't have a cure. It's just that it can be stopped from being a viral. With the right diet, exercise and discipline, it can be avoided at some point. I'm sure his conditioning coach is already making actions and steps to prevent that from happening again to Casimero.

Let's be positive about this and put our trust to Casimero that he will won on this fight.

Well, I certainly have no doubts about Casimero because I'm quite sure that he will win this fight against Butler this April. It's just that, just like you guys, I'm also worried about his condition because of all disease that can be treated right away, he instead got this viral disease that would complicate this coming fight. But yes, you're right and let's put our trust in his team that they could handle it well.

Maybe they all pass throught that struggle and can able to handle much of those last issues so maybe the one he needs to take care of is proper conditioning and not let any guards down towards his training since if he just take this a easy fight which is that knowing butler still a huge threat to him provably we can see him dominate this. But lets do hope that his team will have proper gameplan towards his conditioning and health this time.

I also think the same that they now pass the struggle of controlling Casimero's condition and right now, they are just maintaining it until the date of the fight. Unfortunately that they need to find a solution to that condition instead of focusing only on his usual practice.

Pual Butler knows that issue and will do everything to make that Casimero's condition to his advantage. Since he's the one hungry for the title, he will do everything to win on that match too.
1063  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: GGG vs Murata - Reschedule on: February 20, 2022, 11:59:16 PM

Still this must be exasperating for someone like GGG that does not have time as his ally due to his age while at the same time all of this works on Murata’s favor.

Nah, I can't underestimate GGG even at his age now, he is still powerful and a strong fighter and I have a feeling that Murato would not last against GGG and still GGG will beat his opponent, probably by KO. I know that our opinion maybe different because we are bias, but for me, I will stick with my belief that GGG will dominate here and age is not his disadvantage.

GGG is like not hitting the age disadvantages. He still has that punch to give problems to anyone he faced.

Not saying Murata is nothing but if GGG will face the same boxer that close to his strength, maybe we can say that age is a factor.

If Murata can give a problem to GGG. I really doubt it.

Overall , it was a great promo for both BTC , Super Bowl and even bookies as well and a bad one of gamblers haha.
This.
Exactly! There's also the ad that came from Coinbase, just a QR and everything has went well. So for Drake's win in this bet during the super bowl.
It's up for everyone to believe whether it's for real as he's a rich guy and capable of betting such amount or it's just part of any promo and marketing which he's part of.

Of course, it's real. Why he should put a fake bet lol. Publicity or not for the Stake, that bet is genuine and unique. He placed that bet prior to the match of course, shared a bet slip, and won. Drake won't do something bad to promote something.

I don't understand why others should think that's a fake bet. There's no way it can be like that.
1065  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 19, 2022, 04:42:49 PM
Pretty obvious, it will be a big upset if Josh Taylor will lose in this fight, and not only that, he will also lose the opportunity to fight Crawford. Even though I believe that he will win the fight but I'm not risking 850 USD just to win 100 USD, that's insane.

Same here. Even it's a sure win or the chance is high, can't risk that kind of amount for a few bucks.

I'd rather bet on the winning method in favor of Josh Taylor. A Win by Knock Out seems more chances to happen instead of Decision.

I need more time to analyze the fight if ever I decide to place a bet.

More teams = more competitive. More teams will give more opportunity to other players who are talented. They have a chance to showcase their talents in the league since there are more teams already. Foreign teams might be a sign but I think its more of a good thing at least for some. One thing more is that the league needs this because they already see that the league is dying because of what they are doing. I would love to see more teams playing though.
PBA is moving up to another level, and with that, MPBL will replace them to be pure Filipino talents playing against each other. NBA style, so it's also exciting to watch, people will appreciate it more once it's televised to the popular stations, I hope that will happen soon and we will have our thread here to discuss MPBL.

We speculate too much, wait until that partnership will materialize, for now, enjoy the PBA setup as we are in a very exciting season now. By the way, Magnolia is still undefeated, which team do you think will give them their first L? And why?
Speculation makes us more stress, so I agree its better to enjoy the season for now especially if you're an Alaska fans, better to enjoy every moment because this will be their last season as a team, though I'm confident that most of the players will be play in other teams in the next season.

If you are getting stressed about that then you are not enjoying the topic. I don't see any wrong with why others speculate things about that partnership. If you don't understand what it is all about better not to be involved in the topic. Simple as that.

Back to some PBA topics, it's clear now that Alaska will be sold to other companies. The bidding might start anytime from now.

Can't wait who will be the winner.
1067  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: February 19, 2022, 04:11:55 PM
I like to see them in the playoffs, it would be an intense competition whoever team they'll be facing if in case they will manage to win and face the team who's waiting for them.

The Los Angeles Lakers might have changed their gameplay once able to successfully earn a slot in the playoffs. Maybe their bad games this season will be changed into good ones in a series match.

Unfortunately, they have to face the top teams in the first round of the playoffs.

I might put a bet on them to win on their first-round playoffs regardless of what team they will face. I'm expecting at least over @5-7 odds to win the series.
1068  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Still not satisfied with crypto games on: February 19, 2022, 03:59:01 PM
Getting bored with crypto gaming projects, I'd like to make money out of something fun to play but with crypto games it's really about the money you will make out of the games, I've not seen real good game Devs utilizing the power of blockchain or maybe it's my taste of games that im used to, I just still prefer spending more time on my Xbox than crypto games because it's more fun than crypto games

Then do what you want. If you think playing XBOX is more good and fun than blockchain games, it's your choice. You can't really compare the usual games on Console or any platforms and blockchain games in terms of graphics, gameplay, and fun.

The fun part of blockchain games is obviously you will earn from them. But if you think that's boring, then we have nothing to do with it.
1069  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dogecoin - a joke or a way to make money? on: February 19, 2022, 03:44:49 PM
everyone has a different view for this coin, some say it can be used as long-term savings, there are also save doge because they are trapped by the dimming hype, but doge is not  a joke coin in my opinion but coin that can provide profits even though it is not as fast as bitcoin and ETH

Just because DOGE can give you profits it means we should not treat it as a meme coin. It's not the basis. Shitcoin can really yield profits but there's no fundamental with it. DOGE is still a meme coin but far better than other shitcoins in terms of trading profits.

I also have DOGE on my list but still, I considered that as a meme coin. Getting profits is my only purpose.

Is there anyone betting on the slam dunk contest? Seems like a close one between Jalen Green and Obi Tollin. I watched some of their highlights but I'm still undecided. Any input? Other participants are Cole Anthony and Juan Toscano-Anderson.

Jalen Green is overrated to me. He is a high flyer but I doubt he has that creativity. He's like Dennis Smith Jr. for me in terms of dunking performance.

But who knows I'm wrong here since we are just seeing their dunks in-game but not during their creativity moment.

I also checked the 3-point contest and was surpised Zach Lavine is there. Looks like he still wants more awards and I may bet a little on him.

If by chance he won that 3-point contest, he will be the first NBA player to win a Slam Dunk Contest and a 3-point Contest.

Sinubukan ko mag-deploy kaninang madaling araw pero nahuli ako ng gising ng isang oras. Pagka-online ko, konti na lang yung buhay ng boss. Sana man lang pinantay nila yung time difference sa boss deployment. Kung 8 PM yung pang-gabi, 4 AM na yung kasunod, tapos kahit 12 noon na yung isa. Wala naman siguro magrereklamo dyan dahil covered naman lahat ng time zones.


Ang iksi nung 4am tapos 10am. Haha kulang sa tulog lalo graveyard shift ako. Wala na ako pet na puwede ideploy. Ginamit ko na lahat kahit di element advantage. Para halos sabay sabay na rin sila mag recover.

Dapat ginawa nga nilang 8:00 AM, 4:PM, 12 Midnight.

Mas convenient yan para sa akin kaysa sa 4:00AM , 10:AM, 8:00 PM.

1073  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why I can't access a casino while my country isn't got blacklisted? on: February 19, 2022, 12:00:12 AM
I wouldn't play with VPN since it's breaking their rules, I'm really looking to solve this. It's really sad when you want to play on specific casino but there's a barrier obstructing your desire. I know there's an alternative casinos, but I have some personal reason to play in specific casino...

Using VPN is not always breaking the rules, not all casino prohibit you to use VPN. It is better if you can mention the casino you are willing to play and the country you live. Without that, it will be harder for others to find what is your real issue and how to solve it.

This is correct. VPN is welcomed at most gambling sites but it should not be a conflict with other rules on their respective Terms and Conditions.

It should be a common thing now that if a user plans to use a VPN on their gambling activity, always make a habit to read the terms about using it to prevent any further problems in the future.

If not sure, they can also reach the Customer Support of that site for a much clear response.
1074  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: CrazyTime and Monopoly, should we trust? on: February 18, 2022, 11:59:55 PM
Even if that's the case, I think there will still be cheating, I think, but of course in a more subtle way because this kind of thing carries a greater risk, I think, compared to other gambling, even though this is live, but in some cases there is cheating there.
I did what you did because I also don't really like this game and even only tried this game a few times because I think the losses will be more than the advantages when playing there

If you think like that, then fine but don't consider it as the real thing happening in most of the cases. We are just all speculating and guessing here if those live feeds are really live. These gambling sites won't risk their reputation for that "cheating".

If you don't believe in those, a simple act of staying away is enough not to support those games.

Have fun at your preferred gambling type/s.
1075  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto stuck in sports betting site, now they want KYC on: February 18, 2022, 11:59:51 PM
I know how you feel, it happens not only on betting sites, but across the whole crypto scene. The offer or the ICO or the product is usually unclear, then you do some research that does not really convince but you give it a go. Then, once they got your money or crypto they start setting conditions after the fact. It is in my view unethical and sites that use that marketing technique should be publicly shamed and end in obvlivion.

A situation like that really happened and the sad truth is, there's no way we can avoid that. What we need to do is just to comply with everything if the goal is to get that money stuck in a site. In the end, there's also a chance that all efforts made won't be a success for whatever reason that the site will give. Next time, it's a good practice to always read the Terms and Conditions, especially in the part of restricted countries or regions, VPN, and multiple accounts.
1076  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: February 18, 2022, 11:59:31 PM
^^ I would think that it will be Probellum who is going to happen Casimero's career moving forward. And maybe Casimero will hire someone in-between, and maybe that's where Rachel might enter in the picture. Similar to what Pacquiao did in his career, he has Top Rank but then have Michael Koncz or another Filipino lawyer. And with that meeting, I don't think that we will see Donaire vs Casimero fight in the future. Maybe both Filipinos are targeting Inoue and unseat him in this division.

What a guess and seems can happen. But as we know, both Donaire and Casimero are really eyeing a piece of Naoya Inoue. I also don't believe now that Donaire and Casimero will still face each other. More likely, it will become who's the first to deal with Inoue.

Donaire actually can make a deal now with Inoue since Casimero does have a task first to do.

But before thinking that, let's wait first for the result of the Casimer vs Butler bout.
1077  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: February 18, 2022, 11:59:24 PM
Suns still continue to tear their competitors apart one by one. Their last game was against Rockets and they won by a close margin like 124-121. Rockets are the most terrible team of this season now. But they still competed very well against Suns here. Suns are one of the number one contenders for the title already now. But we will see what happens in the playoff stage. Maybe Suns are going to make it this time after losing the title chance in the final last season.

I still cannot believe that the Suns are so powerfull last 2 seasons in the NBA from out of nowhere honestly . Last year they were pretty close in the play offs im intrested to see if they can try and win it this year. Some solid teams are in the NBA but no one is really good

It should not be a surprise.

You, as a tipster for long, should realize that Chris Paul's effect is always good on all teams he played with.

I don't understand the last part of your statement, what do you mean by some solid teams in NBA but no one is really good? How can they be called solid if they are not good? Am I understanding it right?

These two fighters boxing career is over IMO so i considered this coming fight an exhibition game and with the two out for a long time, i think a KO is a slim possibility but i still think that Brook is too much for Amir Khan.

You are right. The fight is almost their last few chances to make money lol.

Their Knock Out power might be faded now and all they will focus on is proper defense. Their stamina is also not the same as before. To be able to have a successful KO, it needs long and strong stamina.

There will be a clear winner here in a Decision mode.
1079  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: February 18, 2022, 11:59:08 PM
I've just read it from someone, it's not an original opinion of mine. It is true that their games are becoming boring and we as fans, can tell it to them and I'm sure that the management is also aware of it.
But they don't do anything anymore as they're allowing those good trades for the SMC/MVP teams while making the other teams a farm team. Well, it's not going to change as long as there are still the franchises that are staying in the league.

Oh, I see! Well, I also searched for that rumor if actually the ROS might leave the league to make sure and I found nothing. I hope they won't because ROS will be such a waste if they do that, this team already grabbed 2 championship titles and made several appearances of Finals.
And as usual, those said teams are the ones that is controlling of the games now that's why the league has many issues. So, if another teams aside from SMC/MVP will leave the PBA then there's nothing to look forward anymore.
Let's just hope for the best and the setting would be different after the announcement from Aces. Well, I've just read another news(rumor) about a guest team from abroad who will be playing in the PBA next season, that's the Bay Area Phoenix.
If this is going to happen for real then there are two Phoenixes already but again, that's just a rumor that I've read again from a basketball FB page.

That's possible for Governors Cup and Commissioners Cup.

Is this the team from Korea or something related to the partnership of PBA and the Korean Basketball league? Not searching yet that rumor so not sure if on what league does that team came from.

I don't see any negative reactions from the fans if that will happened. Let's see how it goes running from a whole single season.
