Those who are expecting to see Herro, here's some news for ya all.

Tyler Herro still not cleared yet to return to Heat lineup

Quote
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro has not yet been cleared to play in Wednesday’s Game 3 of the NBA Finals (8:30 p.m. ET, ABC), coach Erik Spoelstra said Tuesday.

“I don’t want to be Nostradamus right now. We’re taking it one day at a time,” Spoelstra said. “I know that sounds like a cliché. He did the practice with the group … we’ll meet with the training staff later on today and probably tomorrow, and we’ll just continue this process. He has not been cleared yet, so that’s where we are, but we’re encouraged by the work that he’s been doing.”



At least everything is clear now, but there haven't been any changes in the betting spread. Most popular sportsbooks still have Miami at +2.5. The spread is relatively low, which shows the respect the bookies have for the Heat. When some thought the Heat would be swept, they managed to steal a game on the road. As a result, there are now bettors who believe the Heat will surprise everyone again.

Regardless, both teams had already made history I believe.

If I were you, it's better to place a bet later when the match has started and really calculate which team has the potential to win.

It's easier said than done, mate. Honestly, I've tried that before, thinking it would be easier, but in reality, when you're live betting, you become more emotional, which can cause you to lose focus. So personally, as a sports bettor, my preference is to focus more on pregame odds, although I do engage in live betting as well.

This seems like some kind of fairy tale. I am not discouraging anyone here. But why start with $7 and set a target so specific and so high? Then again, it's a personal choice, so I am not going to think too much about it. I don't have much interest on your win or failure, the one thing caught my eyes is that you said about your journey on Binance.
I'm sure that most of us don't say it was possible but likely it was impossible because we thought that $7 is a very small amount. In fact, having started with $100 is pretty to grow it, how much more for $7 and it made for 15 days? Certainly, nobody will be able to believe it and give a thumbs up, but doubts. Because even we have a long trading experience, doing it instantly is impossible. Of course, we can earn somehow and grow it but not that fast.
744  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do meme coins have a future? on: June 06, 2023, 09:48:52 PM

I don't understand why meme coins such as Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Pepe are so famous and why do people invest in them, wondering about the future of meme coins.
They are not famous yet, they are just familiar because of the hyped created in social media which caught attention this time. I said just "just this time" because sooner or later, their names weren't that popular anymore for new projects will then to make hyped. This year is probably for meme coins, last year we have NFT, and probably next there are other names that will then show the same. Because the truth is that only those project that has the use-case will survive while those who are not will then just die or vanished in the crypto space like ICO projects.

Enough with the speculation, hehe.. Tomorrow we have two games to watch and to bet on.

https://pba.ph/

TNT tropang Giga vs DYIP @05:00 PM
SMB Beermen vs ROS @07:30 PM

As to the betting odds, as of now, there are no pregame odds yet, so we have no choice but to wait for the game to live so we can also put our bet on live. Since this is more like a preseason or exhibition game, it's wise to bet on an underdog team as favorite teams to win are likely overvalued by the bookies.
746  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | WBC & WBO 122 lbs bout | July 25 on: June 06, 2023, 02:34:31 PM

I can also see the same road as Inoue might continue to follow Manny Pacquiao's footsteps to become a champion from division to division, although judging from Inoue's build, I can only see him having his max limit inside the featherweight or super featherweight division. I may not be correct of course as we definitely don't know what will happen in the future and what is exactly the plan of Inoue in his own career. But let's see, Inoue may have some surprise to us in the next few years.

That's why I'm excited to see this match, as it's Inoue's first fight in a higher-weight class. Many fans believe that Inoue will still be able to maintain his power and quickness, so hopefully, we will witness that in this upcoming fight scheduled for July. Inoue is highly popular, so Fulton aims to surpass his popularity and make a name for himself.

Inoue needs to be swift in moving up and engaging in championship fights if he wants to break the record set by MP, which remains unbroken as of now. If he succeeds, he will make his own mark in history.

The above listed details aren't a guaranteed way of choosing the best memecoin and if you follows by the community you might fail because some of the users, members are just chillers who they employed to make some hype noise on the telegram and twitter handle in other to attract investors into their project. On a normal sense you may not know the project that could do well but, for a memecoin being announced by Elon Musk is another cool way to the moon but could likely ends to pump and dump maybe after he finished making his gain he may decides to dump token on investors.
Perhaps, you choose to promote meme coins as it appears in your signature code but I'm not sure if you can guarantee that this project is safe, and not a scam.

Well, meme coins are really on the hyped these days ( a season for meme coins). Those who looked for a gem and those who think about getting rich instantly, surely got landed into these projects. Now, our attention is already on them but the question is if they are aware of the possible results that await them. Because usually we overthink due to the hyped and what is in our mind is earning huge profits.
748  Economy / Speculation / Re: BITCOIN BULL MAY BE IN TROUBLE on: June 05, 2023, 02:09:50 PM
The thing that makes bitcoin difficult to rise this year is because there are more and more speculators who immediately sell when they get profits, as we know that many people make crypto trading their main job and income so when they feel they are making a profit they will sell and of course make the price difficult for rising.
Do you mean investors?
Anyways, real investors are not speculators, they act based on what they think is right and for sure with some basis of their TA. It is possible for newcomers and impatient investors, who've never chosen long-term investments but prefer to get make a profit instantly and so when they don't understand the situation, they simply sell their Bitcoin. And that kind of thinking and behaviors help to drag the price down, not by helping it to grow. That is why it was too hard to think about of reaching $100k when the majority have carried this kind of mindset.
749  Economy / Speculation / Re: Opportunity to buy on: June 02, 2023, 09:26:01 AM
This is a great deal of opportunity when the price of bitcoin keeps going down, I want you to seized the opportunity to buy and hip. We have no ideas what is currently happening to the market but all hope are not lost, bitcoin will take us for a surprise and I don't want to miss the chance or feel regrets not obtaining any amount of bitcoin. Even as bad as the price is, some people are still making cool money out of it, that's mean we never loss investment when you really understands the value of bitcoin. I know some will kick against my tips but what's your reasons?
We Trust and believe that Bitcoin will soon rise and reach for another ATH, a reason why despite the dumps that we have experienced, it was still on our mind to invest and mind out the risk. It was not a regrettable investment as I see, instead, it was profitable and this makes us urge to invest more, and buy more while the price is in correction. Missing this opportunity is not an option, it was our choice but why we should ignore it if, in the first place, we believe that ROI is not impossible?
750  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: June 02, 2023, 02:30:23 AM
After waiting for the line up, I settled for a 3-players props parlay, Caleb Martin Over 14.5 Points + Kyle Lowry Over 3.5 Assists and Nikola Jokic Over 13.5 Rebounds at 7.08

https://prnt.sc/59jQsViFaZKW

Caleb Martin have been red hot for the Heat from their conference and I expect the confidence shouldn't drop tonight, Kyle Lowry off the bench have been very inspirational for Heat too and his experience in the finals would need for Heat here, 4 dimes shouldn't be more off an issue, Jokic have been very dominated off the board in the playoffs and if Miami Heat have let guys like Tatum afford double digits rebound almost all the 7 games of the conference finals, 14 board should be an easy reach for the Joker.

GL everyone.

Good luck! Caleb Martin needs to produce in the second half since he was scoreless in the first half. It's possible that the defense was focused on him, which is why he wasn't able to be productive. Let's see what kind of adjustments Miami will make in the second half after being down by 17 points.

Martin has only scored 3 points now, and it seems unlikely that the bet will win. The Denver Nuggets have been in control of the game, despite it being low-scoring. They have a significant lead. We're now in the 4th quarter, so it's highly unlikely that the Heat will be able to stage a comeback. They might even be fortunate if they manage to cover the spread. Additionally, for those who bet on over 219, this game will be disappointing as it's turning out to be under.
751  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: June 02, 2023, 01:37:15 AM
So far the game is going about how I expected. Miami can’t cover MPJ and Ben Gordon. Looks like they’re leaving Ben Gordon open who is absolutely punishing them right now. They’re going to probably switch up and let MPJ run free in the second half. Nice to see Denver immediately exploiting their advantages. Miami is in trouble and we’re only 9 minutes in.

The first half is over, and the Nuggets already have a 17-point lead. Miami is significantly smaller compared to the Nuggets, and it's unfortunate that their shooting has not been good thus far. The Miami Heat are now shooting only 23.5% from beyond the arc, going 4 for 17, which is very poor considering they are typically a decent 3-point shooting team. Most probably, they are being bothered by the Nuggets' defense.

Additionally, the undrafted players have not been effective thus far. Both Caleb Martin and Struss have yet to score.
752  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for June on: June 01, 2023, 08:56:28 PM
If we would base this on the past year's performance, this month of June is somewhat of an uphill situation. But yes, can't assure anything because investor's behaviors had also changed, and with their experience, that possibly brought something different to the market.

Well, I'd predicted to have a few price pumps this month, a 9-10% increase seems to be possible. Not really it is good but can't push the market and the people to just hold their coins for the sake that the price will grow high as well. Generally, we just rely on how the investors strategies their investment, the more they hold, the better results.
753  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do not be pulled by the hype of meme coins on: June 01, 2023, 08:28:12 PM
Only a novice will fall for the schemes of some of these people promoting these meme coin. They are paid to do this just to lure people into investing in it.
The crypto world in general is very risky, but investing in meme coin is what you will need to sit down and think hard about before jumping into it.
Not only newbies mate but also even old investors are participating in the hyped because it is to admit that this kind of investment seems profiting if you can make it perfectly especially if you are an early investors who buy them at a cheap price and then sell during its peak.
Well, you are right about crypto investment being too risky and that is why I don't encourage people to join here unless they will understand the nature of the market and most of all if they are risk-takers.
754  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: June 01, 2023, 01:01:02 PM
Nuggets on Game 1 for me too. Although I doubt the high spreads if it can be covered.

If you believe that they will win in game 1, trust them to cover the spread. Currently, the Moneyline (ML) odds for the Nuggets are only 1.28, so I think that is too low for gambling unless you have great faith in them and would like to bet a decent amount. However, if you're not betting a lot of money, I think -10 with odds of 2.03 would be fine. Sometimes we have doubts about whether the spread will be covered, but often, when we have doubts, it's the easiest bet that we should take.

In the end, you just have to be confident and trust your analysis.

If you're having a hard time deciding which team to bet on, then I think focusing on the total score would be a good option. Typically, in game 1, the intensity is high and teams are fresh, resulting in a more defensive game. If that scenario unfolds, then I believe betting on the under would be the right choice. Currently, the total is set at 219, which seems high for a defensive game.
755  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: June 01, 2023, 12:13:33 PM
As long Ginebra will reach the Finals, it will bring a lot of money to the league, so expect them to play against Bay Area in the season to come.
That's a given; that's why they are sometimes criticized. Some people believe that the league favors them to be in the Finals because they are the most popular team in the PBA. Additionally, the word 'luto' (rigged) appears every time the team wins. This is not a new phenomenon, as Ginebra has a large fan base but also faces a lot of criticism and has many haters.

And we all know that! Nothing to argue about any favor as knowing how this business works, PBA wanted them to be on the finals not just because they are love by the fans but compared to all the available rosters Ginebra is the team that can matchup the solid squad of the Dragons, though that rigged thing can't be denied but for most of the fans and those who understand the game Ginebra's lineup still the one that can really compete with the Dragon's solid lineup.

Though, we can only conclude that once the league/season opened and all the teams were already playing at their best.


They have plenty of time to prepare, and now they have preseason games to stay active. So, I'm confident that once the season officially opens, it will signify that all teams are ready to play with one goal: to win the championship. BAD will undoubtedly be better compared to the last time they were here, and we can still expect to see their dominant 3-point shooting as it remains their main weapon to overpower their opponents.
756  Economy / Speculation / Re: Halving effects, how long they will last? on: May 31, 2023, 09:43:08 PM
Every 4 years, we expect bull market just because of halving. What do you think when is this chain is going to broken? Ie, halving no longer equals that bull market is coming.

This situation will end if Bitcoin reaches more people. Otherwise, it always continues in a certain process. It continues as bear season and bull season. Breaking this cycle, I think, ends when more people are reached. This is something we are getting closer to each year. Time is and will continue to work in bitcoin's favor.

Most of the people around me trade only during the bull period. They have no investments and only receive certain profits for that period. I'm an investor and I don't look at bitcoin just to make a profit. This cycle will of course be broken one day and then we will be lucky people.
After all, the volatility of the market continues because not all people will able to understand, and even if it was spread globally (which we already have), some will still ignore this. Thinking about the situation seems to be a reason why Bitcoin had a slow adoption, people don't embrace this fast as they have also observed how it is done. Because at the moment that they will see remarkable progress, that would change their mind possibly but to the point that they will hear many people got scammed, I couldn't think they will.
757  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you like Meme Coins (Pepes project)? on: May 31, 2023, 09:09:14 PM
I personally never like, buy or invest into any memecoin that ever existed, I only invest to something that I believe will sustain, and I only think the only way a project can sustain is if they solve a problem, and meme coin does not solve any problem. All that being said, I would never tell anyone to stop investing into anything they believe in including meme coin.
As you say so. Meme coins are not really promising coins, they are usually made for hype but people make this a reason to invest because they'll think that this would give them a huge profit. Some had made it like in Shiba Inu and Dogecoin, but I'm not sure about this Pepe coin. Till now, only Dogecoins and Shiba Inu among meme coins had stood still while the others are gone and die. Well, of course, we can't stop people from investing in them as it was their choice but they must also know the risk that they are trying to take which was too high.
758  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenco - May 20 on: May 31, 2023, 01:05:15 PM
Another thing I dont like about Haney - WBC champion said ‘Fight a white boy 10 times, I’m going to beat him 10 times’ in reference to Vasyl Lomachenko. This is not the first time he is telling how "white boys" are weaker than "black".

It is often assumed that white individuals are the ones who exhibit racism, but in this case, it is the opposite. However, we should not generalize or label people based on their race, as racism has no place in our world. While it is true that black individuals excel in many sports, including the NBA where most superstars are black, it is important to recognize that racism is unacceptable. As a boxer, Haney should consider himself a role model and inspire people rather than causing harm. Criticizing Loma using racist comments not only hurts Loma personally but also reflects negatively on the country he represents, which is highly inappropriate.
759  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not a steady income haven on: May 31, 2023, 12:30:07 PM
When people make gambling their main source of income, ...

I treat it differently because when I refer to a 'source of income,' it means that I am truly making money, not simply gambling without any assurance of long-term profitability. It is evident that most gamblers end up losing their money. So, if you are making money from gambling, it implies that you are one of the exceptional gamblers who can earn a living through gambling, not solely relying on luck but rather on skill.
760  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 30, 2023, 01:01:14 PM
However, it's important to remember that predictions are not always accurate, and in the world of sports, anything can happen.
That's true, as the Miami Heat have proven it many times when they beat the favorite teams from the first round to the conference finals. From what I've heard, both teams are set to make history. For the Nuggets, it would be their first NBA Finals appearance, and they would achieve ultimate success if they win. On the other hand, no team that has been ranked number 8 has ever won a championship, so the Heat have the opportunity to make history as well. Either way, one of them will create a historic moment.
